Dacia Duster

Not elaborating would suggest your post is lacking in substance

If its any consolation the entire post was drivel

I'm not at all interested or concerned how many of them sell tbh
You deleted half your post, lol.

Not everyone's cup of tea, but it's going to suit a lot of buyers, who like to buy new, and who've done the 'luxury' car badge thing and found the experience not worth the extra................

Why don't you make your own counter argument rather than just name calling . I say this because I am interested you see your counter argument . I look forward to your well thought out points .

Counter argument? I want to know what luxury car brands he reckons those who like to buy new used to buy before they'll flock to buy the Dacia Duster Apparently there's "a lot" of these people.

Quite simple really, seems as no answer is forthcoming it seems to be drivel.

To look at the rest of the post seems as you're so interested.....

For 15k, you get a shiny brand new, reasonable sized modern diesel car, where no one else’s ass will have sweated and farted into your seats, or picked their noise in.
.........

Modern? The engine has been around for at least a decade, the Duster itself has been for sale for a few years. It's a stretch to describe the vehicle as modern. The platform isn't the latest, it's been replaced a couple of years ago. If someone launched a car based on the mark 1 Focus would it wash as being modern? A new duster is no doubt shiney, the swearty arse and nose picking comments are retarded, most people's spouses have had "worse" than that done to them in previous relationships :pac:

No one is trying to claim the duster is going to be na X5 or even a Quashqai

It's a very very average, get me from A-B, low specked brand new shiny car, for below average prices.
...

It's not much cheaper than a hatch Megane (€18,700) after the trade in booster if you want metallic paint etc (signature model is €17k), so it only actually looks really cheap in comparison to a Q'qai. An Octavia 1.2TSi can be bought for €18k, realistically who is going to do lots of miles in the Dacia to make the advantage of the diesel make a huge significance, keeping in mind the mpg of the TSi is quite decent.

Buying ANY new model from ANY manufacturer these days is a gamble.

The actual model has now become a far better guide to reliability in recent years than the actual make.

This model has been already released a few years in other countries and has at least proved to be as reliable as average, if not more so.

...........

So buying a Duster is less of a gamble than buying any new model from any manufacturer? Or is the same level of a gamble

And thank God for new car buyers, the more the better, otherwise where would the rest of us get our used cars.

More power to these people who are willing to buy and try these dusters I say.

And yes, sections of the Irish motor trade will continue to run these cars down if they see them as a threat.

.......

What sections of the Irish motor trade are running them down?
The new car buyer speel is true, without doubt. Buying new dusters will just result in 2nd hand ones being available, for those who wouldn't touch a new one a 2nd hand one won't appeal me thinks.

Buying the base model finance free makes sense

Regardless of some personal feelings on here about the model or marque nothing you say will impact the fact that it will be a good seller as has been proven in other jurisdictions.

I don't recall anyone on here saying they won't sell well.
