    Posted before. Up a while. Did anyone enquire about it. Lot of car for the money but high tax

    Beautiful looking car but why only 2 x pics?


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


    Isn't the tax on it 570 a year?

    Since when 2009 Audi Avant can't be sold due to 570 euro tax???

    It is to cheap imo. Probably other issues with it rather than the tax, no?

    Edit : I see it is 1200 not 570. That changes everything.

    NCT extension so that car has zero to offer now sadly. The seller could at least try to take few more photos, though.

    No tax on it, although seller claims it's "In evey day use". It needing a timing belt, and not having being NCT'd for at least 12 months means that there's probably a cartfull of issues with it!

    So before you can drive it, you'd need to spend close to €3k on it for the car, tax, and timing belt, and then there's the NCT. And lack of photos probably means more issues.

    Two ****ty photos won't help him sell any quicker either.

    Bangernomics favourite A6 TDI estate with NCT til May 2021 and some tax, €800

    These are such a great car.


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


    Jaysis lads, i put a bangernomics yoke on Donedeal and Facebook marketplace (which i've found is getting increasingly good for selling a cheap car locally) there on Monday afternoon. I've been plagued before but holy mother of jaysis, i've not had a single call or text but had eleven thousand facebook enquiries and a few donedeal messages. I'll post a list of some of the enquiry names and hopefully someone can relate.

    Cel
    Taimur
    Jimmy lvs Tinamarie
    Christylvschristina
    Saim
    Ali
    Isaque
    Ionut
    Valentineobi

    What is it with cheap cars that drives nutters out of the woodwork?

    Every single one of them literally opens with a "whats your last price" type message, which is frustrating for two reasons.

    1, i've written in the ad that i will not be negotiating until someone has viewed the car, no text negotiations.

    2, their locations are like Galway, Cork etc and i'm in Wicklow, no way will they make that trip for my bangernomics yoke, even if i say work away to their riddiculously **** "last price".

    Torture.

    I can now add,

    Un Frate
    Asif
    Brown
    Ion
    Sammi
    Waqas
    Arek
    Charlielvsmaryann
    Niqash
    Craciun
    Mai
    Mohammed
    Eiman
    Nikey
    Ivana
    and Izabela

    Really phenominal stuff. It makes me wonder do you think Facebook somehow generate these profiles to give you fake interest to keep repurchasing ads with them or something?

    Only had one Irish person with a profile that looked like a genuine enquiry. Set up a time, date, location, a few good questions and no premature haggling. Then she never showed.

    In other news, heres a Punto with Covid test until May 21 and tax until April 21, asking €350.

    Nice looking A4 TDI with NCT til June 2021, €500

    Looks very clean, and has had the same owner since less than a year old. This is something that would last you years with very little hassle

    Nice looking car. Always wonder why sellers don't move to a dry bit of ground when taking the pics. First view doesn't do anything for the car but I guess too far back for a leaky rad. Just my tuppence worth. A few good pics can sell a decent car easily & cost no more than a bad pic.

    T.

    Maybe. As with any of these cars go along have a drive and a good look and that will tell a lot. Ideally get down and dirty underneath (you should but a lot of people don't). Its the ones with suds still on them or a trail of post wash water I'd be inclined to be more weary off for some reason.
