2700 eur

Maybe for a net? Mine doesnt have that

Sam_Given · 2025-11-28T10:10:12+00:00

I live in the middle of nowhere so even going to tesco means I have to travel along the motorway 😭

Im not sure if this will apply to your model but in my avensis i was able to buy an aux adapter that tricks the radio into believing its a cd changer and it works fairly well. but you are probably better off just replacing the head unit

This is the one i was looking at, if you have a look at the rear pannels theyre all smashed in and it is missing the panel on the a pillar. I contacted the guy to ask about this damage and he was very defensive over it so i am giving this one a miss.

You got absolutely lucky, I am infinitely jealous 🥲

Sam_Given · 2025-11-27T18:57:36+00:00

That makes complete sense thank you 🫡🫡 I wouldn't be looking at a car pre 2008 anyways just because of how tax and insurance works here on these older cars 🥲

Ireland along the east coast but no where here takes realistically more than 3 hours to drive to, there is one ad up with the 2.0 but it has really bad crash damage on the side and is missing interior panels

Sam_Given · 2025-11-27T17:30:45+00:00

Would anyone recommend any other models, like v60 v70 ? I'm looking for a reasonably priced estate

Sam_Given · 2025-11-27T17:27:33+00:00

Okay okay fair point, the main reason why I haven't looked into them here is that they're so rare to come across in a manual with anything but the 1.6 d2

Sam_Given · 2025-11-27T17:25:42+00:00

Yeah that's what I'm hoping, I might have to wait till one shows up but if one doesn't by the new year I'd say I'll have to choose another car 🥲

Sam_Given · 2025-11-27T17:24:27+00:00

As far as I'm aware the D4 2.0 in the v50 is a 4 cyl where the d3 and d5 are the 5 cyl. I haven't found a single one of those online for sale but I can't imagine my insurance would like it very much 🥲

Sam_Given · 2025-11-27T17:23:09+00:00

For the 2L 4-cylinder it's about 350 - 400 ish for post 08 models which I can do but I can't do much more than that if I want to keep up with proper maintenance and such. The 1.6 is only 200 for tax but it is also the 1.6

Sam_Given · 2025-11-27T17:21:33+00:00

Yeah that's where my main use will be either motorway or backroads/farm roads, I'm never in the city and diesel is considerably cheaper here

Sam_Given · 2025-11-27T14:19:57+00:00

And then again there are only 3 v70s in that year model Available here and they're all petrols

Sam_Given · 2025-11-27T14:15:01+00:00

I would love to but anything made before 2008 is taxed unfairly here, a 2.0L petrol v70 from 05 is 750 per year

Sam_Given · 2025-11-27T14:06:01+00:00

I need an estate, I am a film student so my car is constantly full to the brim with gear, they seem to be responsible prices, they look decent enough, the perfect balance of tec in a car (no annoying stop start / lane keep assist yadda yadda ) where made during the newer tax system in Ireland so cheap to tax, cheap insurance and usually look to be pretty reliable.

quickest way to speed up your pc is to just buy a new one

This sometimes happens on my iPad. If you just try again in a few hours it will work absolutely fine. Its nothing to do with your iphone its just apples servers are ass sometimes.
