I bought this with a few engine mods, I know it had skunk cams and a few other bits, running 201 bhp which in a car that weighs as much as a tin of beans...It was fun. Sold it for less than you'd pay for 4 decent tires these days...next time I saw it was two years ago for mad money and it popped up again about 6 months ago for even madder money... and my god - it looked neglected to the point it needed a complete rebuild. I'm hoping it found its way to a good home, it was tested until recently so...

Like another poster it drank very little oil and got a really good seeing too every day. Id have it up there with my DC2, with the clip off roof with vtec and a lovely cockpit being the clincher with the del sol.

Bomb-proof Toyota reliability that can go almost anywhere. They're highly sought after, particularly in Australia, as touring rigs. They go forever if looked after, in serious comfort. Wouldn't surprise me at all if they get very close to that asking price.

Top Dog is right as far as the global rep is concerned, you're right in that that is far less likely to fly in the Irish market context. I'd reckon a far number of dreamer cars in this thread have the same problem. The seller sees (usually niche type) Car X go for 10,000+ in England or Germany or wherever and thinks it's worth that here, only Ireland is a small market, pretty conservative and niche cars might have only a few dozen potential buyers.

Im half looking for something 1990s just to drive for a few months, But everything is stupid money and everyone has suddenly become Del Boy. That Fiat Punto is a prime example of it..... In reality that should be a €1500 car with NCT. The sad thing is, I wouldnt be one bit surprised if he got very near the asking price. It's not very long ago when €1500/€2k would have got you into a BMW E34 or E36, Golf GTI or something like a Glanza.
