Just booked it in there now for test tomorrow, so should have NCT for another year hopefully!

Best thing for it, shows confidence.
Increase the price then accordingly and if it fails shows a photo of the fail sheet so people know what needs to be done.

Lads the weather is back here so here's a few convertibles, if the weather stays like this for the rest of the year we're laughing.

Wasn't there a 1.8 red t? Or am I thinking of the American version.

That Mini was up for a grand two weeks ago. The roof wouldn't go down on it. Even at two grand now it's kinda cheap.

The Audi is a nice car for the money.

My parents are selling their cabrios atm with feck all luck!

Bear1: There was a 190bhp but not on the cabrio AFAIK.

I just checked google images and there was indeed a red t version but it seems it was mostly for the American market.
the 1.8t is supposed to be a very good engine and easy to remap.
Probably the best one out of the lot.

I think the mx5 would be the most fun but they do suffer from catastrophic rust problems.

If you could get a saab Griffin that would be some serious fun.

When I sold my Prius it was (almost) exactly like that - 10 years old, 5 previous owners and 115kkm IIRC... Nothing was wrong with it.

As a buyer would that not turn you off?

It would turn me off definitely, even if the high ownership was only a way of avoiding tax arrears.

That guy often has cars for sale on DD. Ad always says "Private seller" based at Newlands Cross, Small dealer, maybe.

That's something that would turn me off. If you're a trader, advertise as a trader.

That link isn't working

I presume its this. Looks like a bit of damage on the back passanger door, but other wise that looks good. Also idk if thats a multitronic gearbox but I hear they're not great. I have a 2004 (that shape) 2.0 TDI manual with 300k km and it is fantastic. My dad had it before me and it literally gave 0 trouble but covered a lot of miles in a short space of time

I've gone out to look at 4 cars at Billy G in the last month. Of those 4 only 1 was worth the trip, but that was bought by a trader as I was attempting to test drive it.
They were all 1k - 2k.

I wonder if 17 previous owners is a record? I once owned an A4 that was 5 years old when I bought it, but had 6 previous owners. Turned out to be a good car in spite of it.

How's the going lads.
Just a question off topic. Feel free to pm the answer.
A brother of mine wants to buy another diesel car. Max 5000 ish. What would ye recommend. Does around 600kms a week. Was looking at the mazda 6. What would ye think

The Mazda will kill him on tax - I'd be going for a Passat or an A4, but my opinion is probably coloured a bit by being partial to VAG products.

Paullimerick

He had a passat which he said he would never buy another of. The task is 390 on an 08/09 mazda. My question avoiding the tax is. What are the engines like

The tax nearly costs as much as the car.

Nice car but wouldn't be for me.
