No they're not. I tested a few cars with no number plate lights at all. Pass/advisory not a fail.

No mention on the sheet. Sorry I should have said that.

My mate asked him about that. He genuinely said he'd have to call the daughter (who he was letting on he was selling the car for) so he could find out. He even called back to say that the daughter told him it had been lowered.

I have to say I had my suspicions all along. When my mate showed me the ad I did say that the interior looked tired but if the guy answers the questions then it's worth going to see. How wrong was I. Parallel universe stuff. This guy was in a world of his own.

There is the other end of the scale, people trying to point out any fault they can to use it as a chisel against the price.

Like a car that's been sitting up a week or 2 having squeaky breaks from non-use; 'Ah shura, the thang needs new brakes desks 'nd pads there now lad shure she does now lad bai'.

AND it's automatic! Wow! That adds another €2k on the price, doncherknow!
The old "call it a classic and stick a zero on the price" gag, it never gets old·

Whatever about the "classic" phenomenon they do come with the "drift tax" phenomenon since they're a decent Jap FR chassis and either come with Toyota's 1jz engine or their 1uzfe, both excellent engines in their own right. However 15k is way way off. there was a fully built one for sale in galway for around 10k and the spec it had was mental it was basically a road going drift car with a full manual conversion. Standard auto ones are very poor sellers kinda like lexus gs300's and ls400's although not quite as cheap.

a bit sticky for a tatty, pre facelift in terra spec. more like a €1500-1750 car.

plenty of nice, well spec'd facelift models for similar money. http://cars.donedeal.ie/cars-for-sale/04-toyota-yaris-ncttax/10338327?offset=19 for example.

there's probably a bit more wiggle room in the pricing of the blue one, but still.

Who wants a 1.3 fiesta though?
Also, it probably had rotten sills or something.

But why would you spend 1k euro on essentially a field car when one can be got for 100 quid or less.

colm_mcm

Because most people that want such a thing couldn't actually make one themselves?

I'm struggling to see who would want one or what use they would have for it to justify 1k euro I mean it's a car that's never going to legally make it onto the road again.

Well that's not what he is looking for he just typed 12345 in the price box. It says in the ad he looking for offers I'd assume it's worth well less than 1k especially with no nct.
