1600 with 70k miles

If you don’t mind the tax (assuming it’s on cc rate) then that’s not bad at all. You’d probably get a few quid off that as it’s undesirable to the masses.

Need a small automatic for herself and there is one there that looks half decent. She would be doing small miles a year, probably under 5000 miles or so

So would they be hard enough on juice yeah?

Glen_Quagmire

Lads would a 1.6 petrol automatic clio be heavy on juice?

Looking at mpg online and it has it at 31mpg which is the same as what a 2.5 petrol automatic BMW 523i is scored at which doesn't seem right?

I jest. I just laid out on something last week is all and have been in and out of the market for a 9-3 or 9-5 for a few months if something came up.

Nothing like a boardsie car generally.

Ad has a genuine air to it. Obviously not the tidiest for the money but cheap all the same, and these are quite good

Hello,

I'm looking for a cheap diesel 08 or newer car for my neighbour who were scammed out of their 2013 Golf

Any recommendations welcome

That vid example is a bit silly though. Video of a LHD Opel being clocked to warn you of the dangers of clocking JDM cars.

For what it's worth, I dont think clocking is too prolific on Japanese cars, at least on the Japanese side. A lot of them have quite a low natural mileage. When the make it to Ireland they have about the same risk of being clocked by an Irish person as anything else I suppose.

More than likely Irish people to be fair. I sold my other halfs 1 series this morning, it was a 151 so not exactly cheap. The man who bought it viewed three similar cars in Cork and all had been clocked after leaving the UK.

Would cartell.ie tell you much if I got the chassis number (VIN)

Having a look and seen this on FB, scary how easy it is to clock a car

Cartell would be useless in this case. Googling the chassis number might throw up Japanese auction websites.

Duke O Smiley

Cartell will be no help, anybody can input mileage readings for any car on there.

How long is the car in the country? Look for service history from its time here, and see what the NCT reports say.

Other than that you won't really be able to do much else. I presume its a bangernomics car? If so I wouldn't be getting too worried about the what ifs..go and have a look and if it suits you make an offer on it

I would say most people looking at Japanese Market would do the homework. Foreign buyers are common these days and the forms format helps.

It is quite good setup tbh.

You can always look at the car the same way you look at any other car. Mileage is displayed in many places. Steering wheel, pedals, seats etc.

Anyway to spot if it is clocked?

I'm not au fait with Jap imports but I believe if it doesn't have the auction sheet it is guaranteed to be clocked.
