    Looks nice and like yourself I have a soft spot for them. It looks like he had it up originally for €2,494 as per the text in the ad and then had it on at €2,195 as per previous Donedeal price. Even at the current €1,995 asking I think he will be playing the long game though. There will be a limited enough market for them given the conceived high motor tax and its age may make it a "difficult" to insure prospect for many.

    However if it is right for you that €650 spent on recent service mentioned should take the edge of the high asking price, looks fit and mileage on the low side for the year. Original Irish car too it appears.

    I think he's going to be looking at it for a long time as you say, the auto box would put a lot of people off too I'd say it's thirsty enough. It's really a 1400-1500 car.

    Too expensive as others have said.

    Volvo V50 in the right trim (R-design), colour and engine (2.0 diesel) and on the chape tax as well
    NCT 02/22 (was tested on Saturday looking at the disc) taxed to 04/21 as well.
    Asking 2.5k, sure there's swinging room on that (says they're emigrating)

    This is lovely.
    B6 Avant PD 130. Probably a bit pricey but asking price is only ever a guide.

    How bloody nice are wagons lads? Last two cars you wouldn't even have a second look at only for the fact they're wagons. Far nicer in that guise than saloon imo.

    BMW, Audi, Volvo always look nicer in wagons than saloons. Rare here compared to saloons though.

    I would have no use for this, but maybe people who live on the side of hills might....

    This meets the basic criteria of being a car insofar as it has an engine, four wheels and some seats.

    It also has a years NCT and tax up to end of May 21. And brand new tyres as well (!)

    €1350, and surely haggling room as I can't imagine his phone is hopping with people looking for it.

    Clio GT (130hp)

    550 more expensive than the accord before haggling 7 years newer almost half the tax... I know which car I'd rather be driving:D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,235 ✭✭✭0lddog


    Ummm,

    My recollection of the Honda is that its a much bigger yoke than that V50

    It is. It would be better matched against the V70 for size comparison.

    Aside from it being a half arsed ad, opinions on this

    https://www.donedeal.ie/cars-for-sale/vw-passat-full-leather-nct-nov-2021/27225820

    Not in the bangernomics price range but maybe some wiggle room


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 73,328 ✭✭✭✭colm_mcm


    I have a huge fear of dieselgate era 1.6 TDIs and their appetite for expensive EGR valves.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,885 ✭✭✭✭MEGA BRO WOLF 5000


    195k miles...

    It's not like they're scarce. I'd hold out for something with lower miles. Think when you're selling it, literally nobody will buy it with 220/230 miles on it.

    Not an engine for bangernomics imho. Some very costly problems could be lurking.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 47 Drew P. Wiener


    Thanks lads, was just eyeing it for tax and insurance reasons, looking for an estate

    Appreciate the heads up

    There are 266k miles on that! How much more mileage could you expect/hope to cover with that 2.0 Deisel engine? It's a lovely car in every other aspect..

    Ahh will ya stop, there's a million and one Polish lads that would sort that in an afternoon, if it hasn't been sorted already.

    It's bangernomics, you roll the dice and see what happens. Obviously you check it carefully and try and verify any service history that's shown.

    Love wagons. Some cars really do look smarter as a wagon.

    Look at the new 508. Gorgeous and all as the saloon is, the estate is a sploosh!

    I'm not usually a fan of these but in the right spec they're still a very good looking car

    Love that colour. Shame the ad is a wee bit sparse. Especially seeing as it's a while away.
