looking to buy a teg

[shaunr]

Hi all

Im looking to buy an integra and have been offerd one in p/x with my leon tdi 170. I used to own a fn2 but changed due to having a kid in june. The leon is decent enough and pokey but its not " fun" kind of feel like an old man lol (26). Anyway I was just wondering if anyone has got kids and is it practical ie boot for a pram and enough room in the back. I know my fn2 had just as big a boot as my leon just not as many doors. Dont mean to go on lol but I do want to go back to a type r.

The deal is 2.5k and my leon for a 55 plate with 58k on. Does this sound ok to you ?

Ive got a 3 year old girl. My Teg is the only car in the family.
Its a bit of a pain gettign her in and out the back. But then, i had a 3 door car before too, so nothing i didnt expect.

The boot is huge. Bigger than you imagine, bigger than my A3 was easily.

Yep,really big boot...you can get 2 mountain bikes in there pretty easily and the rear seats will take people up to 6 ft with a squeeze.I`ve been in the back seat numerous times if my Son has driven and I`m 6`2"! Ok its not comfortable for long journeys but it can be done xthumbup

Always had 3 door cars with my lass whose nearly 5 now. Another lass on the way and still no worries for me. A little extra effort to get them in and out is worth it in my eyes to keep a car like this

I Have got a 3 year old boy and plan on having another soon and I'm also looking for a teg. I'm currently in a 3 door focus now so not bothered by the door numbers but was worried about size. Had a good look inside davidpingu's dc5 the other day and realised they are roomy enough. Especially the boot I was incredibly surprised with the size. So I'm definitely getting one even with plans for a second child. Plus my son loves the DC5 now so I got no choice haha.

If you can't fit something in a DC5 then you should be driving a van or a minibus

They are huge.

I managed to fit 4 wheels with tyres and 4 loose tyres in mine...

In my DC2 i did a trip to Ikea once, it managed to inhale 2 x side tables, 2 x wardrobes, 1 x chest of drawers, 1 x desk, 1 x large shelving unit and a load of other tat, and the DC5 is slightly bigger so its even more practical than my sisters golf!

Ha ha.. I did a trip from Devon to Glasgow with.
2 large suit cases (just back from honeymoon)
Full exhaust system
4 wheels with tyres
Boxes for supercharger
Boxes for supercharger components x 2
Tegiwa M
Kpro box
2 hand luggage bags
And washing machine....ok that's lies but that would fit no problem

Due to it getting freezing overnight, me and the missus slept in my Teg last year at JAE. Seats down, and air bed in the boot, slept like a baby, and we ain't exactly small humans!

Big enough for a road trip to Portugal with 3 adults and the dog plus all luggage...


Also enough space for 4x18" alloys with tyres fitted plus another four 18" tyres (subwoofer left in and mugen rear brace in the way haha)

More then enough room for my pram then lol. Thanks for the replies. So does 11k sound right ? 55 plate facelift with 58k stock

 

[dc5-2ltr]

9.5k nearer the mark

 

[bennn]

9.5k nearer the mark

Would have thought more than that to be honest.

My 2002 prefacelift got sold for not far off that with similar mileage.

It was a minter though.

 

[WatkinsDW]

Same every facelift I've seen for sale at that kind of mileage always seem to fetch 10k or more. Think I seen only one going slightly under 10k since my search for a dc5.

We did the same last year too unfortunately the air bed went down and I ended up laid in the Mugen read brace and with my head in the rear footwell too

I've done ikea trips in this thing aswell as yearlyc car shows with multiple people baggage inside
