Owner would have been wise to invest in some aftermarket parking sensors judging by the battle damage on all four corners.

Hilariously, the ad says it has reversing sensors. Could you imagine what it would look like without them

bazz26 · 17-01-2018 11:58AM

Lol, looking closer and it actually does have them, front and back.

bear1 · 17-01-2018 12:50PM

That's an aftermarket radio right? Wonder if the seller disconnected the sensors for the rear when he switched radios?

bazz26 · 17-01-2018 01:03PM

Either that or Mr Magoo owned it.

As much as I think the cube is funky, I just couldn't bare looking at it parked in my drive.

That other volvo appears be gone already, so couldnt compare for some of the details, this one looks nice, but almost double the price.
I think the tax was over a 1000, was it diesel? think it was manual too, the wife can only drive auto so, if it was nearer Id have a look, low miles, cruise, not sure I believe so much that its not heavy on fuel, but nice

I’d be concerned that it might end up on co2 tax once it goes back on real tax.

Aren’t those 6 cylinder?

Duke O Smiley · 18-01-2018 07:42PM

Seems to be sold now!

They are a 6 cylinder alright, and it had a high-ish reg so I would guess co2 tax (08-d-220xx)

bazz26 · 18-01-2018 07:58PM

Probably run as a taxi or hackney.

Straight six alright. A lot of car for the money! I doubt it was on CO2 tax unless it was imported straight from the UK by the taxi man

colm_mcm · 18-01-2018 08:28PM

Yeah, there were none regged new after July. If it’s an import though..

Out of interest. This is a 10yr old meaning it averaged 13k per year. Does that concern anybody?

unkel · 19-01-2018 01:18AM

Nope. It was bought for the chape tax and the tax payer subsidised diesel fuel (compared to petrol). Ireland has had a higher proportion of diesel cars than any other country in the world. The ridiculous decade of the diesel 2008-2018 is over now though. Maybe we'll soon be able to breath again and not die of cancer.

Is it over though? Lots of new cars are still diesel.

unkel · 19-01-2018 01:33AM

It is. People are slow to change, the chape tax and subsidy on diesel fuel is still there (because the government is afraid to offend voters). But later in the year petrol is expected to overtake diesel in sales. And in maybe 5 years time, electric will overtake both. Not meaning to go off topic here though. The first half decent EV to hit this thread is years away
