172- How much did you pay

[seanthedub]

Im convinced that Ireland is the most expensive country for cars (maybe Sweden is close). Especially after seeing the price of the 172 in Oz. So who paid the most and the least for their 172. I know were being screwed here...insurance is also f**kin crazy.

Mine cost 26700 Euro = GB£16900

(Not an import and is of UK spec)

 

[JillyB]

Bloody hell Sean!

I paid £12,999 for a UK car....but to be far it was an ex demo with nearly 1000 miles on the clock!

 

[BenR]

i can probaly say i paid the lowest for the 172.

a grand total of 0 pounds/dollars/yen!!

i even have insurace paid and have all mods to my car paid for!!!

i consider myself very lucky to be able to be part of this great gang!!

oh...and even petrol is paid for!!

sorry, im feelin pretty smug right now. "align=absmiddle>

[Eddd]

Sean,

I know what you mean about the Irish prices. Nothing like the VRT on top of the 21% VAT to get the price up there! You want to see crazy though, just look at Denmark prices!

The VRT sucks big time but it seems all the Irish public are really worried about is the price of the pint!

And then the insurance...

[seanthedub]

Ed,

since we went Euro we dont gauge the price of the pint anymore. Otherwise emigration would be up 50%.

Where u now?
