    I think he initially wanted €22k....on UK plates, he saw a morsel of sense and put it down to €15k on Irish plates.

    They get good money. I got over 12k for a 2000 not long ago and the post 2004 ones are way better. Mileage is low too.
    Still overpriced though :) I'd say 18 area but no mention of history.

    Selling a car/SUV or whatever requires one or two things. Pictures have to be good and the price has to be advertised - Why don't the sellers wash the bloody things ?
    It gives a bad impression (to me anyway) about a car. It looks uncared for and I keep thinking that if the owner couldn't be bothered to wash it, why would they spend money on servicing?
    The other one is taking pics at night. Jesus Christ.

    Ya but you have to judge the situation. Low value car where owner has it along time, considers the car to be worth little and wants rid - a careless add could well reveal a decent car.

    Even better: Celtic Women Tiger Special :P

    Take bog 1.4 Golf, add leather = Top Spec German Motah.

    They sold lots of them. Focii, too btw. Renault shifted a few 'monaco' spec Meganes too........

    LOL, thems were the days :)

    Ode To The Motorist

    “And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, generates funds to the exchequer. You don't want to acknowledge that as truth because, deep down in places you don't talk about at the Green Party, you want me on that road, you need me on that road. We use words like freedom, enjoyment, sport and community. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent instilling those values in our families and loved ones. You use them as a punch line. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the tax revenue and the very freedom to spend it that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise I suggest you pick up a bus pass and get the ********* ********* off the road”

    Meh I haven't owned or driven a car without leather and hate fabric. I can understand loading leather onto a golf and the mileage is low
    But a 9 y/o car regardless is not worth €4.5k. If it was €2,500ish it wouldn't be mad money for a car for the wife etc not everyone wants alloys and an engine over 1.4 for whatever reason!

    Only half true. The 1.4 Golf isn't the most reliable car on the planet but for some reason are in very high demand and make good money. Any of them that I have advertised I have gotten tons of calls.
