    Those alloys do nothing for it.

    Years test, bitta tax - €495

    Bit pricey these days for a Carina. :P

    Mark my words, Carina E nostalgia will be massive in a few years and any examples that didn’t make it to a Africa or the scrapyard will make mental money here.

    Absolutely. But 2 Carina purchases in one month is verboten.

    I need an industrial unit.

    I'd agree with this, the gti version already makes strong money.

    On the contrary I think it’s a very genuine ad. First and surname is IMO a very good sign and the first indicator. Greenlighted, Dublin 2 etc also.

    Ya, I guess you could be right.
    The one pic, all the tax/test made me think it was a bit off.
    Definitely worth a call with the guts of €200 worth of tax on it!

    Id say a genuine ad. Looks to be taken in an underground car park. I bet it is being sold by someone who never drives it.

    Jaysus there are surely better cars to be got for 2 grand than a 10 year old Skoda ex taxi with 540,000 km on the clock?

    It is very good going, I don't know how much a taxi costs per kilometer but surely the car doesn't owe the owner 2 grand at this stage.

    It's a mortal sin to see something of that quality being taxed to oblivion, there should be some reasonable cap put on motor tax in this country for older cars.

    Course there is but I doubt you would hit those levels of comfort it's a luxobarge and tax isn't to bad. I'd say it has had a fortune spent on it regarding parts I would have no problem with the mileage once there was a stack of receipts. Diesels love to be driven.

    Quality .... Are you serious they are balls of ****e, gearbox is made of chocolate because volvo didn't put a radiator on them unlike the xc90. That superb would be a far superior car in every way.

    I never would have classed my Superb as a Luxobarge. Just a boat is all.

    Luxobarge and chocolate gearbox, you've got all the lingo.

    You need to remember that Skoda has well over half a million kilometers on it, and has carried passengers who couldn't care less about it for the last 10 years.

    Half a million is nothing on those vw iron blocks, again maintenance needs to be done to pass the taxi test. So would do it again just going by the pics you could do a lot worse but it's a low ball offer 1200 - 1500.

    It's not a bad looking car but I think that's where it's at.

    It's not really worth anything with the faults. Driving around having to avoid loading the throttle to avoid sending the car into limp mode and then having to clear it with a scanner would be my worst nightmare, personally. If I was taking on a budget yoke with a big-ish tax disc, i'd want to be driving.

    What did the scrap yard offer? €200?
