Open to offerAny idea on an asking price?:)
I reckon with the tax and test its worth about 700. As it's not my car I just offered to throw it up here and see if a hassle free sale could be done so don't feel an offer will be insulting. It's honestly very good and has lead an easy life. It drives up and down to cork once every couple of weeks and that's it so the mileage isn't from short trips to the shops.0 -

A 3dr, 1.3 civic(presuming it's a jap import) with low mileage and in good condition should fetch 700 no problem. The only thing i can think of that maybe off putting is the auto box.ba_barabus wrote: »Open to offer

A jap 1.3 civic will be an ek2 whilst the European variant will be an ej9 and will be 1.4 instead of 1.3 . The ek3 was a 1.5. 0 -
I know very little about Hondas. It's originally a UK car that was imported when reasonably new by the lads uncle. It's not a jap import I know that much. It's definitely a 1.4 anyway as its got the badge on the boot and is taxed as such.A 3dr, 1.3 civic(presuming it's a jap import) with low mileage and in good condition should fetch 700 no problem.

it's an ej9 so. Tbh they are actually better than the ek2 variant imo as they have a bigger engine, albeit slightly, and they have better rust protection.
€700 as I say should easily be got provided it's in reasonable condition. 0 -

Best of luck to ye Locky. Just goes to show that if you use your noggin you can save a nice few notes.
I'm an awful whore though in that I'm not up for the messin' of buying and selling privately. I just go to a yard-type dealer at the bottom end of the market and he takes my junker as part trade-in on a new banger. I'm a lazy git really
What engine's in the 407? How does she drive?0 -
Nice one Locky_luck
How much you pay for the 407?My ads on adverts.ie:
Victron stuff for sale, Multiplus-II, Quattro, other inverters and batteries and usually some watches!

I've read up what I could on the Peugeot, and the only major component not yet replaced / fixed in it is the turbo. By all accounts, meticulous oil changes should keep this from seizing up.
Indeed, that's the way to do it. If the belt was done recent enough, your only major worry is DMF - I presume these don't have DPF? Either of these is nearly an economic write-off. The pleasure of bangernomickin' a modern diesel

No it isn't, it's about 1.4 tonne
Dunno where people get this. A very well known and respected English motoring journo wrote in an article recently that a base Porsche 911 weighs 1 and 3/4 tonnes. Very far off he was too My ads on adverts.ie:
