Six grand, excluding VRT and its "not mint" - thoughts?

Cheensbo · 23-02-2017 06:59PM

Strong money but they have quite the following, and the way prices are going on most jdm stuff - the only way is up. ... baby..

I wouldn't give it, but there's most likely plenty fellas out there who would!

rex-x · 23-02-2017 07:00PM

And its not even on Irish plates for that money

You wouldn't be left with much change out of 5k to import one yourself. The price of JDM stuff is gone insane.

Fúckin yanks after destroying the market and filling Japanese eyes with dollar signs.

Seen the auction sales for skylines, scoobies, supras and evo's lately? Eye watering,

r34 skylines with reserve prices of €80k +

All the above inflates the rest of the market with it.

I know. I was looking at standard kp60 and kp61 starlets myself. Was looking at around €2800 including shipping before and went looking a few weeks ago and the price has doubled. If you want JDM now you should be looking at NZ and Australia.

Toyotafanboi · 23-02-2017 09:49PM

He'll get that fairly handy for that starlet.

Five grand!

edburg · 24-02-2017 10:23PM

Bit of a mix n match that car but proper clean Nova SR have been going around that for a while, Not sure about this one but could have cleaned under bonnet a bit.

colm_mcm · 24-02-2017 10:25PM

I can't see a following for a 1.2 Vauxhall anyway.

Its not an SR though

Didn't say it was, point was more to the fact these cars are rising and a 26 year old 50k original miles in good nick is not going to be far off. There hard to find now and some basic models are less rotten than your SR/GTE/GSi models purely due to less foam sound deadening on bulkheads, less likely to be nicked/screwed.

Also said was not sure this worth it and needed bit more detailing around it to smarten it up.

Seriously??

Its not worth anywhere near five grand.

Sadly it's worth whatever some laaad is willing to pay for it... when I think of the cars scrapped in our house years ago.. I still have the logbooks. They'd be worth a billion pounds

Guess how much.

And now guess again.

That's insane!

That advert should be reported to Donedeal for taking the piss!

For 50e less you can have a 9 year newer car with only 6,000 more miles!

Jack the Stripper · 25-02-2017 02:02AM

Reported to the done deal police lol, leave it out.

MEGA BRO WOLF 5000 · 25-02-2017 03:13AM

Low mileage doesn't equal high price...

On a micra.

Noveight · 25-02-2017 03:28AM

This car should be in a museum

Oh ffs :pac:

Toyotafanboi · 25-02-2017 10:35AM

Is 6k not a lot for this?

Discs look fake on that merc

Toyotafanboi · 25-02-2017 01:04PM

God yeah, didn't spot that. The tax disc looks like it was cut with a scissors.

If that's accurate pricing I'm sitting on a goldmine :pac:

Murt102 · 25-02-2017 02:22PM

Carsireland is saying that both tax and NCT are correct on that merc.. but it still looks like he cut the tax disc with a scissors :pac:

Yeah but I think it is still genuine. They just cut it instead of tearing on the line. I do the same most of the time, usually end up ripping the disc if I don't :rolleyes:

Had a quick peek on piston heads and they are all £22k - £25k an up so maybe that's actually good value. Export it the uk and get the rebate would surely net a few bob.

It could be the case.

Were they not around 10-12k for the last few years? I knew of a real clean one locally there around 2 years ago that was up for €12k and going nowhere

Economies picking up, small amounts sold to begin with along with a dwindling number of ones left might have boosted the price. If what I read on here is to be true, Japanese high performance stuff is going through the roof in the auctions over in Japan so it might be knocking on over here now too.

bear1 · 26-02-2017 09:07PM

Wonder what the price was originally.
405 bhp though and a tonne of work done, must be a monster on the road.
