€1900 is too much for a 15 year old, high-tax, high miler. It might be worth it to a niche Subaru fan with a horse fetish, but that's a pretty narrow market!

Wheels are fab, though.

When it was first posted, I'm fairly sure it was €1650.
Could a post in this thread be worth an extra €250!?

Nice car, these always held a nice premium over the 5 door models. Pity the tax is that bit higher on them.

Passenger door was badly resprayed. Panoramic roof is brilliant on them, transforms them.

Nice looking 1 owner Avensis with NCT til April 2021, and 3 months warranty apparently. €1950

Looks in really nice nick. Brand new tyres and main dealer history

NCT til January 2021, looks reasonably ok in the pictures, €1950

Cheap(er) tax too. 172k km on the clock too if I'm reading that right; not bad

Toyotafanboi · 04-08-2020 9:25pm

Strata too, you'd be hard pressed to find a nicer, cleaner example but is it a bit dear?

I'd say if you forgot about the warranty (which probably isn't worth much anyway) there'd be a bit more room for haggling

Toyotafanboi · 04-08-2020 9:37pm

Agreed. It'd be an excellent buy for €1500 or so.

Asking €1200

I'm always wary when I see 'Trade Sale' in the description.
In my head it always translates as....'ball of serious costly stuff about to go wrong or already gone wrong but not obvious yet...take your chances'!

Or am i reading too much into it?

bazz26 · 04-08-2020 10:29pm

That's 177k miles not kms. The warranty you would get on a tired looking 12 year old car from a dealer is probably not worth the paper it's written on anyway. Yearly motor tax on that is nearly 2/3 the asking price too.

Eyes wide open with that one.

kaizersoze · 04-08-2020 11:14pm

Another Avensis
Fresh and long NCT. Will probably need tyres shortly but the big stuff done fairly recently.

€850

And I doubt very much that it is brake fluid issue.

If it was it would be replaced.

One thing to note with recent nct extension is that cars now with nct due in 2-6 months are cars that normally would require nct done now.

While nct is no warranty, if it is done recently enough that at least can show the car is not falling apart. Many cars with valid nct now have not been tested in a year.

Terrible ad but could be a great car. 2 owners. Good colour. Crap spec for a 1.8 but for €750 it’s worth it.

Price is a little high but I would suggest getting some silver paint and cover the bit damaged, get some black to black for the plastics outside but peanut butter would do unless the plastic is very bad, heat it with a heat gun to get back to correct colour.
Quartz d-lux ceramic coating would be perfect to bring it up.... Around €50 for s small bottle so maybe try the other 1st.

Take a photo of dash with it running and don't show all the error codes.
Is the cluster all scratches?
Headlight could do with a good polish and bring back the shine to freshen up. Toothpaste may work but also kits Available

Thats usually pretty much exactly what it means. Although if a trader sells you the car, it's still *technically* under consumer rights legislation. You wont get much joy from it, so only an idiot would buy a car expecting protection.

It can also mean that hes taken it as a trade in, has no interest in tidying it up and will punt it on to anyone willing to take the chance. There could be nothing wrong with it.

I picked up a nice little E60 like this that had just a few minor issues. Once sorted it's a lovely car.

It's a bit of craic for me, but I wouldnt be depending on cars like this unless you know what your doing.

Thanks, I've actually got a loan of a few valeting bits and will give it a touch up for some better photos. The cluster is all scratched, it's like that since I got it but when you're actually in the driver's seat it's not really that noticeable. I've had the headlight polishing job done on a previous car and they came up like new, may just have to get that done

Kits in motor factor aren't too expensive either....

Basically 2 or 3 light grade sandpaper, lube which could be water or bit of fairy in it, then just seal it for best results.

It’s a little overpriced. I sold my very tidy 07ES with a brand new test for that this time last year, so that’s 2 years in the difference.
You’d want to be asking around 1100 to get 900 IMO.

Get some Polytrol for the arch plastics, it’ll bring them up like new. Also get a touch up paint for the marks.

Don’t bother showing the pic of the cluster. They all go scratched like thay but it looks worse than it is.
