    Something a bit "different"
    2009 Chrysler Sebring with a 2 litre VW TDi engine
    NCT until December
    Looks very well cared for, 1 owner here who bought it in UK with 24k miles (now has 135k) and has kept it garaged
    New turbo and oil pump
    Not a bad looking car, but not sure how long I could live with the interior
    Asking is €1950

    I like it. Chrysler mustn’t have been let in on the emissions cheat scam tho.

    2007 2.2 diesel RAV 4 with 170k miles
    NCT until Feb 2021 and taxed until end of March 2021!
    The current owner (bought 15th June and 138 lifetime ads, so assuming they are a trader) is saying it was a 1 owner car from new
    Asking is €1900. Considering it's a grand a year for tax, and there's 8 and a half months tax left on it, might be worth a shot

    1 owner S80, NCT til April 2021, tax til February 2021, 90k miles and FSH - €1300!

    This very car belonged to an old maths teacher of mine from school. Very tempted to go for a look tomorrow, it is only up the road from me

    This is now down to 899!! It will soon be worth it just for the car tax alone :eek:

    https://www.donedeal.ie/cars-for-sale/ford-mondeo-2007/24913912

    No mention of tax but looks decent and has NCT and a months warranty.

    Gorgeous clean example - 2006 A4 1.8T multitronic with only 129k kms
    Taxed until end of February 2021 and NCT until May 2021
    Timing belt done at 72k kms
    Asking €1999 - Pricy, but with mileage that low and looks immaculate too

    He'll probably end up giving that away. The big engine and year puts most people off.

    The tax itself wouldn't put me off totally, as most Bangernomics cars will be on the old tax, but with it being 2001, it could be tricky getting insurance as most crowds won't insure that age, and it still isn't old enough to qualify for classic insurance

    7 months driving, just add petrol, how bad would/ could it be? If the multichronic is still working at the end of February stick 3 months tax on her and belt away until the test is out and look for something else...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,720 ✭✭✭Mad_Mike


    That would be my thinking too.
    I have an A4 Avant with a quarter of a million miles on it and the multichronic is still working so far, albeit on a reconditioned box


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,903 ✭✭✭✭Toyotafanboi


    Shameless plug. This was my uncles he's owned it since around 2009. Given to myself, he's bought a new Tucson, proceeds from the sale towards finishing bits in my house :pac:.

    Price is enthusiastic but it's easier to drop it than go back upwards. Will do a good deal for a boardsie.

    https://www.donedeal.ie/cars-for-sale/2005-toyota-rav-4/25330694

    Sold this evening for €1550.

    Unbelieveably, to the same fella who bought my Celica 5 years ago, by pure chance. What are the odds.

    Posted it last month

    Surprised it’s not sold tbh.

    I would really love this. So tempted. I feel like an S80 should be auto though


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,720 ✭✭✭Mad_Mike


    That's why I even mentioned the fact it might have been posted. Had a funny feeling it was alright
    Very surprised it's still here after that length of time too especially as it beats all other diesel listings pricewise PLUS has road tax until the end of March next year!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,720 ✭✭✭Mad_Mike

    Ah but the road tax until next Feb and the mega low mileage though! :D

    07 Saab 9-3 Diesel Estate (2008 MY)
    NCT until April 2021
    Same owner for almost 9 years
    120bhp version. These will do around 50mpg with ease
    High mileage at 240,000
    Asking €1450. Would be a nice buy at around a grand. Might be worth adding to a watchlist to see if it drops

    Another bit of Saab for you. Seems to be in great condition with low miles. I think those 2.0t engines are fairly reliable also.

    Very clean looking 2007 Saab 9-5 with only 75,000 miles!
    NCT until March 2021
    Lots of work carried out over last few months including new turbo fitted and sump cleaned
    2 keys and service history
    €1490

    I actually posted that 2 weeks ago and was full sure it would sell quick especially with the low mileage and work carried out on it. Surprised it hasn't sold and they haven't dropped the price either :confused:

    Odd one here. Sold last week, but if they are flipping it, they can't be making a whole lot!
    99 Avensis with 117,000 miles
    NCT until February 2021 and a couple of weeks tax
    Asking €490

    Plenty of "new shape" 2007-2008 Mondeos on Donedeal priced under 1500.

    Are they that bad, or just undervalued?

    I know these are 12 years old cars now, but still aged well, think that model was available until 2014.

    So many of them and old now.
    Great cars just we were flooded with them and value drops like a stone.

    Also means we are flooded with nice cheap parts ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,679 ✭✭✭✭wonski


    Tempted.

    The only issue is lack of petrol options.

    Most are underpowered 1.6, 2.0 not to be seen.

    Still tempted.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,720 ✭✭✭Mad_Mike


    Not familiar with Mondeos at all myself, but from reading on here, I believe the 1.8TDCi uses what are known as "wet belts", where the timing belt is replaced by 2 belts, 1 of which is immersed in oil. Maybe somebody with more knowledge on them can fill in the gaps here?
    Is it the 1.8 diesel version only?

    No point in dropping the price too much or too often - you only end up getting the would be 'Arfur Daley"s ringing with even lower offers in the hope you accept and they punt it back on DD at your original price. And 90% of these lads are penniless timewasters anyway.

    Every car has a buyer, it takes time to find them sometimes. I've waited up to 3 months....

    Stick to a reasonable price - if someone is GENUINELY interested they will come look at it, and maybe make an offer. It's up to you then to decide your price.

    Otherwise, if you just want rid of it in the first place, just put it up at a low price and be done with it.
