    2010 Octavia with NCT and (non-PSV) tax all the way til October 2021, €1950

    Looks a tidy car despite the miles. Is it worth two grand?

    Definitely an ex taxi. Ffs leatherette covered seats. Not necessarily a bad thing but it’s a mk1 that continued in production long after the mk2 was introduced (2004/5). Mk2 a far superior car and got for similar money.

    Especially a car that costs so much when new. You would think the person would look after it better.

    This is a bizarre yoke. Where would that have come from? India maybe? They kept producing them for eastern Europe until 2010, but they'd all be left hand drive.

    India or at a push South Africa the only places I can think of that might have kept rhd models that long...

    What would be more bizarre is for anyone other than the current owner to think it's worth two grand.

    :eek: Really?

    Jaysus, there's a few 07 and 08s on DD now that you mention it. 10 is a very late one. I suppose the main question is why?

    They were marketed towards taxi drivers mainly. They were obviously much cheaper than the new model, and very basic. I think the very last of them might have been 2011.

    It was a bargain basement offering that, as was mentioned earlier ran at the same time as the new model. There's an 09 one knocking around here still, I think they put discs on the rear instead of drums and a few small tweaks.

    It's worth nowhere near that. It's a grand car and I'd expect change.

    It'll be either Irish or uk.

    They were sold domestically until at least 2010. I think someone on here even saw an original Irish 2011 reg'd one

    A one owner from new one sold in a few hours that was up for €2200 in Carrick on Shannon about 3 months ago.

    There's quite a demand for cheap tax, reliability, simplicity and fuel efficiency above all else.

    Did that one have close to half a million miles up on it too?

    If I remember correctly it had 320k+ km on the clock.

    I've long posted that 1000-1500 should be the price of them however currently it's tricky get them at that.

    Just posted that example to say that they can make 2k the odd time.

    7 months tax, 8 months test, asking €695. It's not even bad looking, really.

    8 months test,a whisker of tax and a big bastid dent in the wing. Asking €450.

    How could you be without a car for that money.
