No its priced right maybe even cheap if it's very clean.

They've risen in price and demand the last while. Plenty of dreamer prices alright but still they bottomed out about 2 years ago.

A very clean 3dr in a nice colour can fetch a right good price.

The raft of sh1te that was produced in the 2008 to 2012 era has also really added to the rose tinted glasses effect when looking at how things once were.

Do you mean the Mk6 Golf? Was it really that bad?

After buying the Yaris Verso posted here a few weeks ago, my Yaris is for sale. Full Valet & Tank of Petrol (about 6 weeks worth) €600 spent prior to NCT in March.

Any advert improvement advice welcome.

Take your photos from ground level, the angle makes them look odd. No need for a pic of the roof or engine bay. Looks good otherwise 😂

Just picked up, as a backup car, a 2006 P12 Primera 1.6. 80k miles, 2 owners, NCT Sept and tax May.
Everything works. Including reversing camera. 4 matching good tyres. Lots of recent main dealer service.
€700. Ah lads, feel like I won the 3 numbers on Boyle sports.
Score!

1 lady owner Irish-from-new 130 bhp Highline Golf with NCT til next year and a few days tax, €1400

An unmolested example is so rare, that’s easily worth the asking. They were a great yoke!

No more so the many diesel cars on offer during the first few years of the cheap tax era which experience so many reliability issues.

2.0pd tdi head, oil pump and injector problems, bmw n47 timing chain, vauxhall engine and gearbox problems, psa 1.6hdi blowing turbos, Toyota head gasket failure, Honda timing chain and manifold and Mazda in general :pac: etc.

The first 1.6tdi mk6 golfs are a risky enough bet imo too.

Tidy looking Nissan Cube with NCT in the right colour for bangernomics money. If the CVT is working ok, this would be a darling. If it was in Munster, I'd be on it....

2002 I think. Only 3 photos, none of the interior. Over 200k miles though, so it wasnt going to be a minter.

Some young lad will likely sell that on for 2-4k after it is modified. Extremely sought after by people in their early 20's.. Even with 200k miles! no joke!!

Such a unique stand out car. I see one near me in town every so often. Certainly would not have a problem finding it in the car park.

Beautiful car. If it is still around after all these years then more than likely any problems it has had have been sorted. There were some of that generation too that had mo problems at all and were well made.

That laguna is advertised with 160k km, the NCT cert says 189k km and the car is showing 189k miles.

Brother is 22 and paid 4k for insurance on one. So it's possible for them to get insured..

Lads, it's a €450 car with 8 months NCT. Obviously would need to be given the once over by someone who knows what to look out for but at this end of the market if it drives straight, stops, isn't overheating or has any liquids leaking out of it then it's cheap motoring imo.

For a TDi, that mad. Has he any NCB or is it his first car. As I paid around that if not more on my first and even second car. But I did have a provisional licence though not from failing the test or anything I just drove around with the provisional as you were able to do that back then.

Apparently not when there's 190k miles on that one.
