Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

This looks like it could be a pretty decent buy for around a grand. NCT till 2020, tax till the end of the year and it is seemingly well enough sorted for daily/regular use
€12500 -

That's as rough as a badgers arse but you can't argue with the asking price. I'd say the seller would take a grand for it.
Almighty cheap work horse!
Photos are suspiciously reticent alright but I think this one says all you need to know really
If you think thats rough as a badgers backside though, you should see my 1990 Suzuki Alto!

Better deal here for a RR/Bentley, bit more expensive at €7,750 but has an NCT for 18 months. Needs to have the seats pampered and probably a few other small bits, but you can run this car for less money than a new Golf for 1-2 years.

I love all bubble cars, had an Isetta years ago. Irish manufacture gives this Heinkel added appeal. Reg checks out as 1960. Price is very fair based on international prices.

That's a steal, MrCostington!
"open to reasonable offers" I'd say EUR350 would take it. Current NCT and all. Car has driven to the moon and some of the way back, I like it!
This won't be there long, someone grab a bargain quick.My ads on adverts.ie

well I mean you are a stickler for the NCT, and rightly so.
I was looking at a car last week that was used as a daily, no NCT, owner said he didn't think it needed it, being over 30. It really makes one suspicious, and assume it failed on something major and hence trying to off load car. And of course it's the law, and is a safety check after all. And, the insurance insist on it, so these people are effectively driving uninsured, I'd say.
But anyway, happy St Patricks Day!0 -

Decent price for a manual Scimitar needing a small bit of TLC (if you're not overly concerned with cosmetics)
Would love to give one of these a try some day0 -

I couldn't resist it!
After flying over to Bradford in January to look at a 1989 and 1990 saloon Carina II's there was no way I was leaving a one owner liftback online at that price.
Drove down after work and bought her this evening. Drove like a dream from Wexford back to Dublin tonight. Pulls lovely. Box is decent. Can't really say much else that one wouldn't expect on 29yo car. It's like a boat inside!
Genuinely a thoroughly enjoyable drive on a road I hate!
Body is a wee bit tatty around in spots but nothing some TLC over the next few months won't sort out.
Delighted with her!
Incidentally as an aside; outside Enniscorthy this evening towards Ferns there was a Garda check point. First time breathilysed since October 2009! Madness!
Anyway, he was asking me about the Carina saying he'd seen the ad up on done deal and all and has been looking at them himself... How was it etc... nothing like about of car chat at a check point!You'd nearly buy that Toyota just to bring it over 300,000 miles. Makes you wonder why the owner doesn't do that
I brought it over 292000 on the drive back. Satisfying as fook!0 -

Well wear! How much did you get the car for if you don't mind me asking?BorneTobyWilde wrote: »Hmm I dunno, if kept for ten years it could be an investment.
It would have been a good investment if you bought it ten years ago. Now at that kinda money, maybe not so much, but of course only time will tell.My ads on adverts.ie

Congrats on ur purchase.
How does a 2 car policy work?Is it that u just pay slightly more given that you can only drive one car at a time.
That's pretty much the idea.
It's pretty much like how you can get a "classic" policy and it only costs 150 quid or so but as a second policy and will have limiting conditions; the 2 car policy has no "limiting" conditions. Anyway, unless you're over 39 you ain't getting one.

Sadly, I do meet the necessary criteria - so what companies offer this ?0 -
