I wouldn't bother. Much more negotiating room for punters I'd imagine.

Hold the phone! :eek:

Whether or not its a dreamer price (personally think it is), would anyone seriously consider buying a car that has needed €4000 spent on it when its only 7 years old with a claimed 12,500 miles up on it? :eek:

new soft top , new timing belt, new water pump, new clutch and cable, 2 new front tyres

What sort of life has it had that it needs all that? Its not a frickin Ferrari, though I'm sure many will think it is since its Italian and red :rolleyes:

Surely it's a fiat! By the time you will bring it to your own driveway, you will have another 4k bill!

Easily - on the continent. He did mention export, so he knows what they cost back in his country. I assume it is Poland/Lituania/Latvia...

Wait, is that someone shoehorning a diesel into it, or did that gen starlet actually come with a diesel option?

Don't think I've ever heard of a diesel Starlet.

That particular one started out as a 1.3 petrol turbo - says so in the advert

Neither had I!

I thought that perhaps there was a diesel model starlet, which is where the engine came from. And he just swapped the petrol 1.3, for the diesel lump in the other starlet...

Obviously not:pac:

There was a 1.5 diesel all right.

There was indeed, in the early mid-90s there were a load of them imported into Ireland from Japan. Usually white and 3 door. And with the "luxury" of air-con way back then . My family nearly bought one I remember from the Frank Fahey Motor Centre on the Naas Road.
