He admits in the ad that he does be doing rings and drifting also. Not something you want to hear if thinking about buying it.

But they are a decent car those 86's. LSD RWD and yes only 200bhp but that is pretty much the limit of VVT at 2 litres. They could probably get more power if they opted for VVL. Probably 220bhp so not a huge increase but a increase all the same.

I'd say that thing has seen more donuts than homer Simpson.
Na Boxer engines are notoriously dogs for adding power to.
Just buy a wrx, s chasis or evo for that money if you have to have a 4 banger, I can think of many way more fun cars in that price range and lower.

Without them stickers though I actually think the carina is a nice car. Maybe I'm sick or something but I actually like it but not 4k like.....

I think that looks savage, there's a thousand euros worth of wheels on it

Not next nor near a 4k car though. It's not even originally red ffs.

I remember "the carina touch" stickers across the back window in Limerick!
Or the very popular "pioneer" even do they had a silver crest head unit

Do people put the make of their car across their windscreen incase they forgot what it is

Back in the day there was a chap locally who had a 1.3 Corolla with a visor saying "TRUST" as in Trust turbos. Ridiculous and all and that was ironically you
couldn't trust him as far as you'd throw him and all that.

Would you like to be the 13th owner of this 24 year old unremarkable Toyota?

It's the whole nostalgia thing I suppose saying that I have a 93 corolla that's fairly battered as my 3 or 4 day a week daily even though I have a A6 C7. It's great, don't have to mind it or even service it but I wouldn't be mad enough to pay more than 500 for one

[Deleted User]

It's like the Corolla Twin-Cam in my eyes.

I can't fathom it at all.

When I was growing up (born mid 80s) a Carina wasn't a desirable car. It was a grand car, nothing fancy like an Avensis. Can't see any reason they would be appreciating

I know there's obviously a market but it's a bit lost on me!

I Was VB

I know Carinas are a good motor I’ve had plenty of them over the years.

I refuse point blank to accept that these are worth anything north of €1k barring a GTi

https://www.donedeal.ie/view/27103402 - €2k for a D-Turbo with no Nct or tax that’s been pulled out of a barn that it was sitting the last 10 years.

https://www.donedeal.ie/view/27103391 €2600 for a base XLi, at least it had test.

Lunacy.

Not always accurate. Be careful.

Max figure is €600. You can’t calculate it, it has to be on the cert of conformity.

You could assume a figure of €600, which is the max for a petrol.
There probably wouldn’t be any documentation showing Nox.

how do you calculate it tho without nox figures. It says if nothing is entered it will use max figures

is there anywhere to get the nox figures for these older cars to calculate VRT?

This is a nice rare car these days but 12 grand and still on UK plates is dreamer to me.

€12,345, €1,234, €123 etc seems to be the random default price that is input on Donedeal when the seller is trying to be coy and secretive about it all. You would see that using these prices seems to be rife for those selling agricultural tractors and machinery and plant.

I would think again in this case its not the actual price of the car but guessing you are right in that he does want too much for it, just testing the water blah blah blah

Edit: After seen davycc's post maybe €2.5k is a more reasonable asking price? Isn't? Seller would fair better to input his correct asking price alright though....its all a bit stupid if he's a serious seller.
