So, what's the insurance punishment for buying a 1.8 Alfa 159?

I doubt it would be too high. Alfas were never given the same sort of treatment a 1.4 Golf got.

That's the one. Looks good value. I will have a look at it over the weekend.

I thought it was a bit pricey for a 2l mondeo but it does look immaculate. The Ghia spec is class.

Some people don't like these but I do, and I think this example looks very well. 16 months NCT makes it an attractive buy

5 months test and a small bit of tax & 1 owner. It looks quite tidy and rust free under the rain too. You never see these pre-facelift Fiestas about anymore either! €350

12 months test and tax until the end of the month. Certainly no looker and its showing those 160k miles well...but t'is cheap transport at €380 ono

Been trying to like them for years now.. still can't, maybe with a big 6 banger in there I'd be swayed.. Always look like they got a hard wollop on the back to me :pac:

Banger - looks a little rough on the outside (may even be worse in real life) but a quick, economical, good looking motor with test till end of the year.

Once that runs out sell the shiny stuff and give her a few laps around mondello :cool:

I admit I have come to like them in the last year or so. I'm usually very slow to like the looks of BMWs of recent times though. Typically takes me 5-10 years. Sometimes longer

A decent spec '06 Mondeo is a lot of car for €1,200. Well wear!

That's a fine car for 1200 smacks, great spec with loads of gadgets and best of all a decent engine. Best of luck with it.

Nice looking facelift S-Type, only a 2.5 too so cheap tax(!) but still a capable engine. 14 months NCT, €1500.

New NCT. It could look fairly nice tidied up.

Good car if you need to transport a washing machine, a bicycle and a 40" TV in a lively fashion :pac:.

I'd drive it. Hard to believe it shares an engine with the TT above.

Whats a car wash, €7.. not gonna break the bank to give it a clean before putting up an ad.. Can never understand people that put up pics of a dirty car.

For Forks Sake

Expiring test, so tread carefully, but 272hp for 1750 is a nice sleeper.

Its possibly the ones that are waxed up to the 9's you need to be careful off a lot of the time. I take your point but we are at the lower end of the market here too. Is it a bit on the pricey side?

I like these. Nice smart imposing looking car. Rims really set this one off. Can't be too bad for the money if all it needs is the window regulator/switch/ electrics sorted. Are they worth a punt?

Not a great sign when the amount of fuel in the tank as advertised as a selling point - but nonetheless a full tank and 6 months test for sub €300

This would make for a nice city runabout. Hybrid Civic with tax and test, and full leather(!) - presumably got for €1500 (€1650 asking)

One years test - and looks very original - for a grand

Camry has to be Auto really. No alloys on that for some reason.
Wouldn't float my boat, for the tax money you're not getting much prestige.
That civic hybrid looks very tidy.

The Sidewards Man

My guess is some one removed them, auto on that car is a dog.

colm_mcm

Yep, the auto is old fashioned on them, think it's 3 speed + overdrive - but it sort of suits the car.

The Sidewards Man

3 speed and overdrive over a manual seriously?
