    in fairness to that garage, they do normally seem to be pretty good with having long NCTs on their stock.

    Well even if it does have an NCT , the price they are asking makes that cert worth about 4250 quid......Retail :p

    if it had an infinite NCT it's not worth that money.

    You can always tell an ex. Dublin Merc taxi that has done mega miles when the headlights look dark like that. I'd say it has at least 100 k more on the clock than advertised.

    It seems this seller has had a small dose of reality, the price is now down to €1000, just knock another 0 off that and it might be saleable.

    So what about stereotyping,it is what it is! If I say it with an "ah be jaysus " will it make you feel better. Its just taking the p!ss, now get over it. FFS the ad reads just like the way we were taking the mickey out of it. Did you read the ad we're talking about? Bloody PC brigade....Its a laugh, there's no incitement to hatred, no racial slur, no threat being made against any section of society, its just a laugh. You know when someone takes the mickey out of you for doing or saying something stupid.

    Maybe if we could all laugh at each other a little more we wouldn't have the problems we have .... be gorra :)

    Just saw this now; bahahahahahahaha!:D

    PLENTY! I know a lad who got 10 grand for one not so long ago.

    Those Corolla's have been making mad money for the last 7 / 8 years. There was a time in the late 90s early 00s that they were worth very little. A guy living near me swapped a grey over black one for an 88 fwd Corolla GT that was rough enough about 10 years ago.

    I know a lad that paid over 20k for one a few years back, mind you it was fully rally prepared !

    They are in many ways a specialist motors lusted after by a certian type of young fella !

    Yes, as they are sought after for example for Rally.

    There are. But in the case of the Corolla, they are ultra rare and pretty sought after also by Rally drivers, so I can see that getting it's money.

    Sort a mark 1 mark 2 Escort type thing.


  • Registered Users Posts: 23,694 ✭✭✭✭L-M


    They're actually a nice car to drive. I'd buy one only for I couldn't justify paying 6-8 grand, the cars you would get for that!

    Two other reasons, 1. They're a red flag to the bulls that are Gardaí
    2. They've all been dogged within an inch of their life!

    Now it looks a really well kept motor... but...

    "the best GTI of all"... is he mad?

    The Golf GTi Mk1 1800 is the best of all... fast and no brakes to speak of.. that is excitment!
