And if they're in Ireland it'd be a "turd" car, which would undoubtedly be a pile of !!!!!!

Actually there is ( or was ) an element of truth in that, my dear old Dad always said to me, never buy a used car with a Z or an I in the number plate as they are Irish registered and will have been wrecked.

( All of that has changed with the new type numbers ).

Indeed, however a lot of plates from Northern Ireland have been sold here as " Private Plates " which muddies the waters.

You can't save money by buying a new(er) car :rotfl:

You can. I just have.

£75pcm (finance) to cover depreciation, repairs (in warranty, brand new car), MOTs (it doesn't need any), etc.

I saved that in insurance and VED alone before I put a drop of fuel in it at 50+MPG instead of 30.
