yea just looked if the dacia.co.uk exist. that would make it harder.
I recall my naigbour purchasing a brand new toyota corolla SW 1.5 for 18 grand . they also want loads more now for these. cheapest be a holdon berena 16k or so last i looked. Ps i am not going to buy a new car just like looking up prices and reasons.

also up on price by loads are ssangyoung they cost as much as a toyota now for a ute etc. the gratewall cars are no much good on price either . considering these makes are crap with no aftermarket sales on parts.
at least ssangyoung is this way.

new cars cheap as right now. My father paid about $45,000 for a new 1986/7 XF Falcon Fairmont. It must have been sitting at Wiri getting ocean sprayed for months before being released to a dealer. So rusty underneath brakelines etc. worst car he ever owned.

Geez. Compared to a house for example that was about $150,000 in todays money. I know of a couple who bought two brand new 1984 Rover SD1 Vandenplas' at about $60,000 each. In 1984 you could have bought a pretty good house in a larger city for $120,000.

Must be a bit of a freak brand, BCIs and Zonda busses are heaps of crap.

Intrade, sorry to hijack but you mention linux chat. I am after a good NZ linux forum for some advice on Freeview HD 7 Day EPG solutions for Mythtv. Hence needing to be NZ based. Any suggestions!

thejazzpianoma, Mar 10, 8:05am
Those Rovers translate to about $168'000 each in todays money. Given the Vandenplas would have been the bees knees its possibly just as much a reflection of todays overpriced housing market as anything to do with the price of the cars.

http://www.suzuki.co.nz/Automotive/Alto/ Suzuki Alto sneaks in at just under that, at $16,500 according to this page. http://www.suzuki.co.nz/Automotive/Alto/Alto+1.0+GLX/

I suspect of course that some cars will go for under RRP anyway.

Geely LC Hatch $14,990
