    Would have thought you'd get a 1000 for one with a fresh nct. It looks clean enough.

    Well I've never sold a car like so i dunno really what to price it as, but sure i'll stick up as that and see from there!

    With cars like that it's the new nct that makes them that's what people want that are looking for cars like that sure the tax must be about 2 euro for the year too :pac:

    The funny thing about it is the tax for the year is still less then three months on the 9-5 :o

    Three months tax is like the price of a meal deal from dominos id say haha

    Ah infairness it's cheap a to b motoring at its finest you can't take that away from it. Probably one of the cheapest ways to get on the road low cost; tax, insurance, cheap too buy and cheap tyres too. Low maintenance costs in the fact it doesn't really have anything on it to go wrong.

    Wtf - 8 to 9 grand for 2008 Corolla diesels on carzone.

    That's for a 7 year old car.

    And no im not looking for one - I was benchmarking the prices I was seeing for C30 Volvos as I nearly dropped with some of them.

    (says he who was looking at 11 grand for 2011 Fabias some months ago)

    You may only be joking, but seemingly there's such a thing as a 500hp Matiz.
