Its the only Pao on Donedeal or adverts at the minute. The last one to be advertised was three weeks ago and it was €5500. They were grand a few years ago when you actually had some hope of getting insurance but I'd say it would be a nightmare now. South City Dubliners often sell cars very cheaply too though.

Ah, of course, one owner in Ireland but not throughout its life. That didn't even occur to me.

This is how it works now btw

"Are there any details missing or incorrect" just brings you to a section that allows you to contact Donedeal and ask them to change or add something

Not really a looked, but claimed 1 owner, NCT to 11/17 and tax to 9/17 for €1950. Its basically a GS300..

Same owner in Japan as here? Hmmm...

Kudos for not sticking Lexus badges on it though.

Toyotafanboi

I don't hate it, but being a blatant JDM import it has definitely more than one previous owner and is probably an insurance headache.

'01 Seicento with NCT to 9/17 and a week of tax for €200 ono - if a faulty speedo is the worst of the issues it can't be so bad. Cheap motoring.

Both the pre facelift and facelift model were sold in 2006. The headlights on the facelift ones had issues where the holders may get too hot and start melting, these were changed by Toyota under warranty at the time. I'd imagine most would have been done at this stage.

Try and get a facelift model though as that had a split folding rear seat as standard whereas on the pre facelift model only the hatchback/estate and Luna saloon came with a split folding rear seat. If looking at the 1.6 then go for the Strata model, the Aura model was very basic. If you can stretch to a 1.8 Luna then that would be my choice. They have nicer seats and a few more toys than the 1.6 models. 1.8 engine is more suited to the size and weight of car too, fuel economy is no worse than the 1.6 either.

They have a bad rep admittedly but this one looks honest, original Irish and I think they are actually quite a smart looking car when tidied up.

6 cylinder, auto, leather, climate, bulletproof.
1.0 power, 2.0 tax, 3.0 fuel consumption.

8 months tax, 12 months test, hard top and doesn't immediately look like an import so it may actually be insurable. RR setup, id say thats lovely! Excellent value for money IMO.

Only concern would be no interior pics

This looks very genuine and the ad reads as though it may have been voluntary early tested until 05/18. Only 2 owners, 4x new tyres, new exhaust, good colour and sun roof.

Above average mileage, 4 months NCT, looks like a good clean would do wonders for it. Petrol in these are fairly reliable?

Edit:

Less miles and new NCT but nearly double the asking. Nice to see were well into e90'nomics.

I have had an 03 which is the same model for 6 years. Only thing to be wary of is gearbox bearings and that's not a big deal as the box doesn't have to come out to replace them. As long as the car hasn't been badly abused and occasionally got a service should be OK. I have driven mine to Budapest and back and she now has 180 k miles done. She is still in good enough nick I won't get rid of her for a while yet. She has never failed an nct.
