    '01 Avensis 1.6 petrol
    135k miles
    NCT April '21
    Tax October '20

    Claim of 1 lady owner.
    Also worth a call.

    Asking €1,100

    https://www.donedeal.ie/vintagecars-for-sale/toyota-avensis-1-6-new-nct-and-tax/24367084

    That's crazy money for a 19 year old car, tax or no tax.

    I'll bite.

    Lets break it down.

    Asking price €1,100
    Less Valid Tax €300 (approx)
    Real purchase cost €800

    Lets assume you secure €50 off the asking.
    Real purchase price is now €750

    Factor in the fact that its a (claimed) one owner car, with acceptable miles, decent engine, lowish annual tax, reliable, respectable looking, will ferry 4 adults or an average family around in acceptable comfort.

    Issues of insurance aside, is a real purchase price of €750 really crazy for that car?
    If it was a total shed I would agree with you, but all things considered and assuming the car is legit I think its a decent buy.
    Certainly don't agree that its crazy money.

    I agree €750 isn't crazy money when you look at what you are actually getting but I think they'll still struggle to sell it due newer cars being sold at a similar price and also the issue of insuring a car over 15 years.

    750 is still too much. The Irish love affair with the Avensis is long gone especially with that petrol engine, they can be troublesome enough as the miles rise. If it was a diesel with a hitch maybe some aul Zeb would pick her up, slap her on the FBD and draw sheep to the mart.

    A grand is way too much for one of those, they're like driving a hairdryer.

    This one is more realistically priced.

    09 diesel Fiesta with NCT til September and tax all the way til 2021, €1600

    Irish car with 3 owners. If it was an import with 8 owners I would be less inclined to post it, but this particular example looks alright

    What could be wrong with a 12 year old car that only has 30,000 kms on the clock?

    That man has a great reputation as a used car salesman doesn't he?

    it says the timing belt was done 40,000KM ago. I reckon that 30,000 is missing a 0

    He never entered the correct mileage. Sure the timing belt was done 40,000 kms ago.
