I used to laugh at the Seicento when I was much younger. I don't know why really, the Sporting model is a very stylish car to my eyes today. The above example is probably the least dull small city car you could buy for the money today

I learnt to drive in one and I loved the lack of a rev counter so you'd just blast it down the road and fairly nippy for a city car.
They are as well specd as a piece of grass but good craic to own

its in bray so too far to travel theses days. i missed out on 2 cheap local long tested Daihatsu Terios too they are both my first choice after the sportings ./

anyone who slags off Seicento sportings has obviously never driven one and is ignorant to how much fun they are.:D good enough for clarkson in there day:cool:

ill probably just chicken out and end up with a boring micra or civic. :pac:

Nice comfortable family bus and low(ish) miles, a T6 no less and 280 bhp. I would love one of these

LPG but no LPG tank?

Duke O Smiley

I wonder how much you could have a tank bought and installed for?

The problem is I think you'd struggle to get anyone to stand over or certify the work they haven't installed.

toyotaavensis

Does it seem odd that it would be installed without a tank or that the tank was removed?

Yes it is a Chevrolet Epica - but no less than twenty three months NCT and a 08 plate for under the quota. Those marks on the bumper look like they would polish out too.

unkel

And don't forget it's a straight six with an auto box too. A million times more refinement than anything else '07 or '08 in bangernomics.

If that wasn't either a rental car or a taxi, I'll buy and then eat a hat.

Duke O Smiley

Very low mileage for it to be either - but you never know

I'd pay a grand max, but I'd certainly drive it :cool:

Arkady

I love it . .that Micra is so Irish . .Nissan missed a trick by not selling it here . . .

Duke O Smiley

George Cosgrave on Dorset street imports/ed a few

Special Circumstances

So that's where ssangyong got the plans for the musso from. You wouldn't miss it in the car park anyway.

Nice find! I'd much prefer the Saab myself and no doubt it's more comfortable and a nicer place to be in. I owned one myself for two years.

A manual 4 pot is not refined though compared with a straight 6 auto

That car, in a breaking bad, Irish kitsch sort of way, is extremely cool. There is something about it. A nice collectors item for the yard of unusual cars up the back, and the odd shopping trip to lidl. A grand at the very max though as you say.
