    These are a nice way to get 5 people around. If its still around, they will probably bite at 450? NCT til January and tax til the end of the month.

    Isn't the whole aim of bangernomics to buy the most inexpensive motor that is roadworthy, run it for a year or two and rinse and repeat? Or maybe I'm focusing too much on just the asking price in lieu of everything else?


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 5,737 ✭✭✭MidlandsM


    yes, but to me, thats just end of life scrap.

    You'd really need to see that 3 series in the flesh. From the pics, it looks like the front tyres are in need of a change. The colour looks pretty nice, but I notice there's an after market spoiler on the back, which looks a bit naff. There was a great looking 325ci here not that long back, for about 2500ish if i recall correctly, that looked a million times better.


  • Registered Users Posts: 24,249 ✭✭✭✭Sleepy


    A chaved up, 13 year old BMW with after market suspension that'll no doubt lead to an insurance premium and a crooked reg plate? No way it's worth 4 figures.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,078 ✭✭✭W123-80's


    No mention of any test.
    Definately no tax...!!

    I would love it.

    I wonder what percentage €650 is of the original list price. Maybe around half of 1%? The MPG figure might be even more startling.

    Older Volvo S40. Full Leather & Air Con. NCT 05/13 €1150

    View2-14593185.jpeg

    Replace that front grill with one of these (if it fits) and maybe add a front splitter so it looks more like this one and it's quite a nice looking car imo!

    Another 406 but quite unusual in white. Looks well. NCT 4/13 €800

    nice little punto for 850euro http://cars.donedeal.ie/for-sale/cars/4033433


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,985 ✭✭✭✭dgt


    I thought about posting that 406 but it it's older than mine with roughly the same NCT and well over double the price I paid :pac:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,504 ✭✭✭barura


    Rav4 from 96 with NCT til next year. Asking 895 but I'm sure some haggling would lend itself to something.

    http://cars.donedeal.ie/for-sale/cars/4084238

    Maybe, what do I know?

    View2-15157142.jpeg

    This is a no brainer. Tax til well into next year and NCT. 995 but again, tax is worth a fair chunk of that.

    Pity they have no low-box - would make a fun off-road toy otherwise :(

    Great minds eh? :pac:

    That is a dirt cheap price all the same for estate motoring.

    Don't forget the Lexus lights, cloth seats, tape deck and no aircon.
    Not sure about those early e46s and nikasil either.
    Looks like a diffing machine shir!

    This to me is proper Bangernomics

    That would be running a M54, which didn't suffer from nikasil issues.

    But you're right, didn't cop the no aircon craic. Lets be honest though, the e46 is a pretty strong car, but at that mileage you can bank on it needing work. I was quite taken by the colour all the same!

    I really like this... If you bagged it for €1250 and got it taxed and NCT'd for 6 months then its very nice motoring for under €2k IMO.


  • Registered Users Posts: 22,317 ✭✭✭✭Esel


    ^ Had to laugh - NCT on that is up in Jan, but ad says
    SWAP FOR FAST CAR ONLY!!WITH LONG NCT!!

    Nice Merc - though anyone know what Mercedes were thinking with the trim?

    Looks like seating from a 1980's Kazakh Airlines passenger jet.

    That raised my suspicion. Selling a car with short NCT and only interested in buying one with long NCT

    Perhaps he suspects the car won't pass the test? For around what he is asking for, I would demand a fresh test or walk away. Wouldn't even bother having a closer look :)

    I doubt Kazakh Airlines had jets in the 80s. Maybe some knackered Russian turboprop Tupolev :D
