    ^^^^^^^^
    Poverty-spec seats, though, and won't have all the toys (cruise control, heated seats). Think I'd rather spend a couple of hundred more and get the more loaded version. They're a nice bus, though, no question.

    I can honestly say that I wouldn't drive it for free. I would feel dirty if I had to sit in a yoke like that.

    The comments on that ad just remind me why I would never use adverts.ie to sell anything. Asking price of €750 and the first comment is an offer of 1/3 of the asking. Timewasters.

    Adverts is like a auction. The bids keep rising until the seller agrees on the highest at the time. If the reserve isn't met, its not harm. But since nobody knows the reserve, its not a bad idea to drop in a low bid.

    I don't see the harm in it. The only times I see people get pissy about it, is when they are selling a piece of crap and only get low offers. Which is fair enough.

    The same reason as most others - the tax that goes with it :(

    Because the last V6 I saw was 2-3 times the average price of the 2L, primarily. :) I see your point, and they're a good car for little money these days, but I'd rather get a better specced one as the price difference is small (and yes, I am actually considering buying one at the moment as my bangernomics car).

    no real tax or test worth talking about but it looks in great shape, lots of fun for the money.

    Looks well, long test and some recent work. If it checks out, it's a nice motor for the money.

    The belt might need doing and the door issue might need a respray to flash in after repair. Other than that its very good value imo.

    Clean looking Saab here.

    2 litre turbo (LPT I think they were mind), FSH, NCT 03/13, low mileage and I'm sure could be driven away for €500. Nice cheap motoring there.

    Those headlights are badly in need of a compound. Nice straight car in fairness..

    Used to have one and wouldn't buy one again.
    It looks like a sports car but isn't really a sports car. 124bph isn't that much for a car that size. Although it's based on a Mondeo parts are quite expensive too when something goes wrong...
