    Yeah, and just to be really needy and ungrateful - it would be nice if you could set a minimum amount of required NCT when searching


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 694 ✭✭✭heathersonline


    I see Donedeal have finally added an NCT filter in the search bar, handy for this thread

    I see adverts update yesterday allows you post your adverts.ie ad to DoneDeal for free

    What app could you see when a car was last taxed etc? I thought it was adverts but can't seem to find it. TIA

    If you go to carsireland.com and select “place add”, when you put in the ref it populates the car make and model as well as nct and tax due dates as well as previous owners

    Thanks blindside88. I know about that one but there was a different app/site that would actually tell you when a car was last taxed which was very handy. I had it saved on my old phone but it didn't transfer across to my new one and I got rid of the old phone before I copped.

    A drivers side quarter panel for one of those is €2500 IIRC.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,228 ✭✭✭selectamatic


    Thats great bangernomics. No matter what happens you will always get €500 back for that from the exporters. More if supply is scarce.

    That said in years to come we'll all be wondering where they're gone. As they rise in price.

    They’re such a cool old bus.

    What ever happened to yours selectamatic?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 51,826 ✭✭✭✭bazz26


    There would be many more years and miles left on that as a taxi down in Africa.

    What ever happened to yours selectamatic?

    Mines an Ipsum jap version of a picnic. Its immobile at the minute but I'm hoping to sort it this summer. If I finally get my carina on the road.

    The ipsum had a coolant leak that a friend ignored and as a result he proceeded to boil it on his way to work in Dublin early one Monday morning. He ended up melting two plug leads to the spark plugs it got that hot. And he reckoned he couldn't stop due to time constraints. The head might be beyond salvageable but I won't know till I pull it off.

    Same man wouldn't be very mechanically minded but he owned a share in it so was using it while his other car was goosed. Shame really but it is what it is.

    I bet you don’t have to pay NINE HUNDRED AND FIFTY ONE big ones to tax it either.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,088 ✭✭✭✭BonnieSituation


    Anyway to find out how much tax is left on it?

    Tax ran out at the end of March according to the adverts app trick

    Suddenly makes it less palatable.

    Price is grand as stated but I'd accept 600 for it. :p Why not on Donedeal?

    Your valuation was on the money Sold today for €600 (I threw in a roof rack to sweeten the deal:pac:)

    Now, what to do with my new found wealth;)

    I'm throwing it in here, as it ticks all the boxes, but it's more a collectors car than Bangernomics and is the only one on Donedeal right now, 2nd one this year I think!

    NCT until March 2020 and taxed until July, but no mention of mileage

    €1,200

    I love that, but it really needs to be about 700

    Yeah, the price is too high, but both the 145's and 146's name their price really as there are only 2 or 3 a year being listed at this stage that are roadworthy.

    If it was mine, I wouldn't let it go for anywhere near that! The price is about right assuming you'd have it for a grand. Its high enough to keep the scrap merchants away and low enough to tempt an enthusiast.

    Boris Johnson could make them uncool again.... After he lost his ministerial Jaaaag he ended up in one of those yokes.

    One feature they are seriously lacking compared to Adverts and Facebook etc is location search. Still only narrows it by county, but hopefully they will add that soon also

    Sometimes putting your town into the main search box acts like a handy filter if the seller set their location.

    I've tried that alright before and it works well, but like you say, it's assuming they don't just pick the county! :D
