The bonnets are a big hit with tuners who have switched to front mount and don't need a bonnet scoop anymore.

could easily ask €1250 with an NCT and fairly unlikely to be rings gone in a 4e.

Nice little car, shame about the insurance really, has ABS and airbag etc.

joujoujou · 05-03-2016 10:44PM

Perhaps owner forgot he's decat done?

I bet you'd easily get 5x money back breaking it for parts.

I text him to see if it was sold. Hasn't texted back yet. Would buy it tomorrow but is very unlikely to still be available.

Was it you?

Ad marked as SOLD.

nd · 06-03-2016 03:23PM

Nope unfortunately. It was probably sold shortly after the ad wet up.

Disclaimer. It's my old car...you can ignore the price of €250. 200 would take it.

Agreed they are one of the most horrible cars I've ever driven and not particularly well built either. The Suzuki Liana is a decent car though and represents far better value for money.

your obviously missing the first clue about the super rare Junior WRC era ignis sports,

no opel parts in these little flyers and they are tonnes of fun to throw down a windy back road .
one of the best chassis in its time in reviews.miles faster than mini cooper, polo gti, lupo gti, panda 100hp,yaris t-sport, sportka.
. 1.5vvt 115 bhp weighs well close to 900kg ,super close ratio box , huge brakes all around, fishnet recaro seats, chunky leather wheel and gearknob ,40+mpg.A/C C/L E/W ,white enkie wheels , lift off oversteer all as stock.

which ignis did you drive the boggo 1.3 or the massively over- engineered 1.5 vvt sport ?

they are both at opposite ends of the motoring spectrum to be fair:D

As if the sexy Recaros didn't give it away, it's not a WagonR.

I'd try adding few more good pictures - back, interior, etc.

I'd say you'd be doing well to get €350+ for it given there's no NCT and it failed on emissions.

mullingar · 11-03-2016 09:46PM

It's only worth the going €/ton

Toyotafanboi · 12-03-2016 11:10AM

Yeah, the emissions fail will have people running a mile.

Would you not consider fixing it? Get it tested and a good valet and you could ask €999

davycc · 12-03-2016 02:17PM

naa just want rid and a change of scene.. its not using any oil or coolant at all so im hoping the emissions might be due to a hole in exhaust system somewhere

GvidoR · 12-03-2016 02:52PM

In that case, piece of tin foil and couple of cable ties, job done. :P

I think the lads in Africa would disagree with ya there, they'd be delighted to get their hands on it.
@davycc if ya know anyone in the export game they'd throw ya a few pound for it. They won't give ya much but it'll be more than scrap value. I hate to hear talk of scrapping perfectly good cars especially a little Rolla that'd be sound for the next 10 years with just regular maintenance.
A side from that just fix it, a quick clean of the intake including throttle body and a shot of diptane in the tank does work wonders for jap cars from the 90's. And a corolla with fresh test will always sell.

ba_barabus · 13-03-2016 01:56AM

Davy pm me what actually takes that car away. Given cars are making €20 a ton at the minute if it's a cheap project my easter break is coming up soon and I'd like a cheap project.

Unless it's fooked of course.

No joke. I've a car on dd for €250 and needs work for NCT as one would expect. The amount of lads ringing me over the last week or so asking "does she drive perfect" and "any

I'm pretty sure a graph would confirm that the cheaper the car the greater the number of time wasters it attracts.

Not saying that's me but the cheaper you advertise a car etc etc
