That said it may be worth a gamble at such a low price with all that NCT. It's about at its value though, it isn't particularly cheap. They don't hold value like it's other Japanese relatives, the Corolla or the Civic.

Not saying no one will offer the asking price (you never know), but if I were the seller, I'd be inclined to take a decent cash offer many hundreds short of that...

Not an alternative to the Toyota, but valid Bangernomics too I think, and maybe a handy winter bus.

The reason these cars cost what they cost is that tax is €1080/year. It's worth more than asking in the UK so I don't see how it's a bad price.

Be nice if there was a picture of the interior in some way. lot of owners on it (6) but in fairness more than 3 months tax, which would be a good 100 discount if you factor it in, and great long NCT (hard to read, but looks like it might have been done within a couple of thousand miles of current claimed mileage). And I suppose for €300 (before negotiating) you can't expect too much!
