The Norn Iron plate means you can add at least a 1 to the front end of that mileage figure.

Yep - my shed was 113K miles and claimed to be one owner. Sounds legit until you see a sticker in the rear window for a used car centre and then notice the glue on the windscreen for their taxi rates etc

Well that's simply not true, smaller car market means your less likely to find a clocked car. NI has about a fifth of the cars of Central London, it's tiny.

Car leaves England with 180k, heads to NI, comes back on new plates with false history and 72k. Happened to my 735i.

This looks sweet

So perfect for this thread. Lovely. Headlight wipers. Can we all respect this post!

This also looks nice: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Fiat-Panda-Selecta/1537...

Not sure on how good the auto box is though! Probably not the best match with such a car and engine.

1997 SAAB 9000 CS 2.0L. Wood console inlay, window wind deflectors, 110,000 miles, 800 nicker ono

Seems a lot of car for the money but no description at all...

A bargain. I was often taken to school in one of these non turbos, and it was always so warm and comfy. At that price, it's the ultimate winter beater!

Bit trickier to do now, since DVLA Coleraine closed. That MG has been 'imported' to NI though, TKZ is far too recent and not 'age related'. So if it came from the mainland originally, it will be offered it's original mainland reg back again. Unless of course it came from the South.

Iis it or could it be just a "private plate" that someone has bought?

[Tyre Smoke]

That's a bog standard recently issued NI plate though.

Another Nordie, this time a lovely 2000 Peugeot 406 3.0 V6 Executive. Pity it's an automatic though.

131000 miles
£1195

A similar, if slightly older proposition. Look at the interior! https://www.carandclassic.co.uk/car/C1173938

A 1.8, eh? A friend's mum had a 1.6 and it was colloquially known as 'The Rocket', felt far faster that any of it's peers in our 17/18yo group. The 1.8 must feel like a Tesla

Passed my test in one of those all be it a 1985 model ....yes I'm old.

A couple of minty fresh 90s Fiats that I can't help but want.

[p4cks]

I can see that Punto being bought up and then sold on at one of those online classic car places who take their photos with a white background.

For £795 ono it’s a steal!

[Duke Caboom]

The first one of the Croma you can really see the similarity with the SAAB 9000, which I've never noticed before. (I know they were both Type 4 cars)

Reckon this 2002 Tii could be saved? Sat in a bush since 1987...

How much was it?

[Sticks.]

Another small, well preserved Fiat, although I'm not sure it's worth that much. 4 gears, I think, so town only.



https://www.carandclassic.co.uk/car/C1141090

Cheap compared to this one though, even with 4wd.

the 4x4 one is better value

[aaron_2000]

I reckon it'll end up close to £5k. Not seen daylight since 1989
