    I don’t think anyone has fond memories of 90s Astras unless they got a bit of action in the back of one.

    I had a few saloons when I was 17-18 and the nostalgia I get from seeing them pop up is fantastic.

    Think between myself and my friends we went through 7 or 8 of them. None of them ever had a passenger mirror though.

    Lovely looking example with a nice engine, but no hope of getting €7k for it!

    I would be suspicious of the mileage too. The interior, and especially the steering wheel makes me doubt the 125k on the clock.

    12 cent per km in tax alone over its life

    Were they not very good for what they were? I’ve never driven one but they had a very good name at the time?

    Another Ssanyong bargain...
    forget that RAV4 or 5008 when you could have all this luxury and glamour for a €5 under €40k!!!
    I just found this vehicle on Carzone.ie https://www.carzone.ie/used-cars/ssangyong/korando/used-2020-201-ssangyong-korando-elx-p-carlow-fpa-202005289613190

    That’s utterly sale proof. If it was sub 3k it would be hard shift. It’s from a dealer and they went to the trouble of giving it a detail but couldn’t be arsed pushing out that dent in the rear.

    Ugh.

    €2.5k on UK plates with a ****ed gearbox? Maybe I'm mad but the classic section seems full of fruitcakes.

    Like most they'll probably only test it when the car is sold, no point testing a car and leaving it sit on the forecourt

    Looking on DoneDeal there’s peers in the €2-4K range. Absolutely pointless buying an old car like that from a dealer. Best Buy privately with a keen eye to pedigree

    Probably hoping the cheap vrt and vintage tax will make it attractive to someone

    Is that really dreamer though? Surely with a fixed gearbox it’s worth multiples of that

    Shoguns don't make a whole pile even if they're in good nick for some reason. 2.5k with a wanked gearbox would be asking more than it's worth.

    Here's one in the UK for around the same price imported.

    I've been half looking out lately - good condition short wheel base on irish plates is about 5k, similar condition long version is about 4k.

    https://www.donedeal.ie/view/26047006

    He’s smoking crack if he thinks he’ll get anywhere close to €42k!

    He’s been watching a few too many Doug Demunro videos.

    What is a "professional social media expert", and how does this benefit your ad? One could easily conflate social media expert with expert in deception (e.g. Instagram influencers).

    Lad I'm afraid you're the numtpy if you are on a car forum and don't know who Doug DeMuro is.

    He makes over 40k a month from his YouTube channel reviewing cars. And his reviews are usually pretty good and kinda funny.
