Not happy. I think somebody just told him he's in a Fiat Panda

There are some county plates I wouldn’t drive regardless of how cheap the car was.

It’s not particularly cheap. It seems to have a comprehensive service history, one owner, and very tidy inside and out.

That’s what matters at this price level, not the county on the reg.

I wasn’t referring to to price of the Civic, it was the KY plate that would turn me off.
Went looking at a €1400 CRV (mk2 ‘05) yesterday.
NCT 02/21, taxed til next month. EVERYTHING worked, a/c, cruise, heated leather seats, sunroof. I checked everything and walked away because it was on a C plate.
Just couldn’t do it.

Here you go. Front tyres will need replacing and bodywork is not quite as tidy up close but decent motor and drives well.

Presumably you knew the county reg before you went to view it - why did you bother?

It's only visible in 5 of the 7 exterior photographs, may not have been noticed by such a particular person.

It was only 15 mins from my house and I thought if the car was good enough I could get past the reg issue.
I couldn’t.

VERY dodgy!

Another ad, same text, stupidly low miles, both dealing since 2020 on Donedeal, both using same method to block out number!

The old saying.. “if it looks to good to be true.. it must be one of our ethnically protected thieving cousins”

punisher5112 · 31-01-2020 07:20PM

I've reported the aventis also....

This BMW looks seriously good for the money.

M47 2.0 manual.

I can absolutely guarantee that if this hasn't sold already it won't be on donedeal tomorrow.
Asking 2,200. I doubt there's haggle room but you never know.

I found more out about this. Sold for an absolutely insulting €1800 to the first viewer despite having 15 people who said they would turn up and just pay asking!!! A bit mental but I know the lad who bought and that’s what he said. Apparently it’s in superb shape, few scratches here and there. I’ve also managed to wangle the wheels off him for my own

pah · 01-02-2020 12:40AM

That's gas about the reg plates. I'm in cork and have had D reg, KY reg and currently driving WX reg. I don't get it. ESPECIALLY in the bangernomics thread FFS.
