IMO, they're just too big tbh, I think the saloon isn't a looker but the interior is nice. Certainly won't be lusting after one anyway!

Mr.Finn obviously never heard of linseed oil or back to black :pac:
Interior is quite nice in it though and it does look in good nick, he's dreaming if he's expecting a bank draft made out to the asking though

12 year old 200k miles no test 1.9tdi bora asking €1650.... almost in dreamer territory already
then the punch line! no engine and a 200k miles chassis €1650 LOL
1650 / Pi = 525
realistic asking price = €525
"easy on diesel" - course it is, the engine don't run
F**k me. surprised he stopped short of saying "serious lift off her"0 -

To me thats just silly logic. Although I have myself bought cars before without NCT's or very little NCT left on them I have bought them on the basis that I might be lucky and pass the next NCT while at the same time bought them on the basis of knowing full well that I might be unlucky and fail the test.... If I'm not too unlucky fail for something small and I might have to spend a few quid on it or if I'm unlucky something so major or the sum of a number of issues as to render the car an economic write off.
Difference being I wouldn't be spending the thick of €3,000 or buying into the sellers bullsh!t that the car will pass with flying colours or fly through the test no problem, blah blah blah etc etc.
It may well end up being a costly assumption to assume it will pass again without any major problems based on the fact that it passed a year back. You cant know for certain how the car was driven or treated in the meantime.Sam Russell wrote: »If you need more info, ask the seller. Ask for a guarantee that it will pass or money back.
Take the car to a garage before a NCT to get checked over and although most will likely give you a good indication whether it'll pass or fail I don't think any will absolutely guarantee that it will pass. I'm not entirely sure how an individual who is not a mechanic could guarantee you that the car will pass. Aside from that I think you might find it very difficult to actually enforce such an agreement in the case of a private seller. 0 -
