So if you own the car at present and then "sell" it to your partner and then "buy" it back, how does that effect your current insurance of you're still driving the car during these changes of ownership?

Or if you’re John Smith, sell it to J. Smith, J. D. Smith etc

Not if you sell it to your spouse / partner. You won't have to change it back then.

Didnt realise motortax.ie gave the last change of details on the site, shame they didnt give the last few years.
Looked at a car on motorcheck recently and there were numerous changes of ownership, which gave me cause for concern, either the owner was skipping the due tax (not my problem about the taxing, but if they are similarly not putting a basic amount of money into a car for servicing), OR the car had change ownership a good few times which would be cause for concern.
If someone owns a halfway decent car it looks better when selling if they have paid the tax and not swapped ownership too many times, unless they got caught out once, or it raises questions, think if owning a less desirable or older car, then its better to not change for same reason at it just makes it even less likely to be bought too.

Just sell the car to your partner, arrears gets cleared and that's it.

That’s lovely but definitely needs an NCT at that price. However I’d have no doubts that it’s very genuine. Dogs would make short work of wrecking that lovely beige carpet in the boot I’d say!

Only realised after posting that is petrol, so probably a thirsty fecker. Looks a good un all the same.

Looks fecking spotless.
Anything to look out for on these?

Tidy looking 05 Corolla diesel with long nct, albeit highish mileage.

My Hillman imp would give these sporting things a run for their money. My Hillman imp , while somewhat nippy on a steep decline isn’t that fast.

Mad_Mike

The Sporting is definitely NOT a fast car, but as they are so light, the extra HP makes a huge difference and they are a fun little car to drive.

They are also 20mm lower than the standard car, and fitted with an anti-roll bar which helps to make it a stiffer drive.
Grand around town and for a bit of fun, but definitely not a car for a long drive, or for motorway driving etc

I think it is, we are talking 20 extra hp. Details to follow

0.9 is 39hp with 18s from 0-100.

1.1 is 54hp with 13.8 from 0-100.

There was base 0.7 engine as well, but doubt it was ever sold in these parts of Europe.

well, i take your point: It didnt feel like 20hp and i never put a stopwatch to it, but it didnt seem much faster than the old 127 engine, but it would take any bend as fast as you dared.

wonski

Just edited my post. Huge difference given the weight of the car.

0.9 would be barely driveable these days

The Sporting was only 54bhp IIRC. Sold a Seicento with same engine to a friend and it was slow as fook.

The 0.9 was approx 40bhp and there was the Polish 2 cylinder version too with around 30.

yeah, thats probably right. I just remeber at the time thinking they weren't a whole lot quicker, but miles quicker to drive due to the grip.

Real sporting isn't much quicker: it was all down to the suspension/steering mods made to the sporting and especially the fancy Pirelli tyres t'hey were supplied with from new.

Although the FIRE engine did like to rev a lot more, so probably feels quicker.

It was an 04 with 330k kms and only 1 previous owner. Was a pretty genuine ad too tbf

selectamatic

Its sold or the ad is down anyways.

I believe James Maitland up the north can map them a touch over 180bhp but they need a straight pipe. The side mounted intercooler and piping usually needs to be in good order though and they'll run fairly smokey when not on boost.

In general most 130bhp tdi's when mapped are left at around the 170bhp mark.
