Cheap GS

Postby fatboyfat7 » Wed Oct 22, 2008 2:16 am

Just had a quick look through CarZone and saw this...

http://www.carzone.ie/used-cars/Mitsubi ... K/1230237/

I know its a GS with high milege but still... seems like a good buy to me if I was in the market for one. Under 3k and she looks clean with a decent NCT.

On a seperate point, only 8 FTO's listed on Carzone? Usually a good few more...
Fully functional White GPvR....

Seems to be a problem on the carzone website - its not showing my Zed at the moment either. I've had a lot of trouble this time around with both Carzone and CBG with regard to advertising the Zed.

So you're saying "avoid at all costs" so? :wink:

Not cheap enough IMO. @ MyfeckinFTO you do realise that carzone only give 28 (or is it 30) days, for your €30 now. €15 to renew instead of being FOC.
At a time when it has become a whole lot more difficult to sell a car, the main advertising website has put it's prices up :roll:

Its back up again now for some reason. :roll:
I had renewed the Ad last week Mustang. Absolutely spot on re the new carzone Ad pricing though - They built that website up to be the top online car sales site and now they decide to make money out of a depressed market. Problem for them is they've just left a huge gapping hole in the market for a competitor to do to them what they did to CBG et al.

Looks like the leader to fill that gap at the moment is www.carlist.ie

It's because AutoTrader own Carzone and AutoTrader are extremely money hungry and tend to make a lot of bad decisions.

carzone are having major issues lately, I've 30+ cars on there through work that can't be accessed through a model search. They're updating the site at the minute, and hopefully will get sorted soon. bit of a pain for those paying €30 a month though.

I think the site is absolutely brutal these days, I used to always go on a check out a few different cars etc but I don't bother any more, even the search function is shot to hell!! It's prime time to get another site up and running!!!
