Fresh search · 23 August 2026
Five current leads for a family of five, ranked for reliability, running cost, safety, parking, and practical travel from central Girona.
Bottom line
Start with the Micra, i10, and Sandero. Do not travel for the B-Max until the seller identifies the exact engine. Do not travel for the C4 Cactus until the wet timing-belt invoices prove the complete job was done correctly.
Ranked best to worst
Open a car for the short version: why it is here, the main risks, and a friendly first message.
No need to remember the process
Choose the situation, copy the prompt, and start a Codex task.
A
Paste the reply or attach a screenshot. Codex will explain it in plain English and draft one friendly next message.
A seller replied about [CAR]. Review the reply against the Girona car report, explain what it means in plain English, identify what is still missing or concerning, and draft one friendly follow-up in the seller's language. Do not send anything until I confirm.
B
Name the car or its rank. Codex will recheck the listing and seller before preparing a short first message.
Contact the seller for [CAR OR RANK] from the Girona car report. Verify that the listing is still live and the seller still looks credible. Use the saved friendly approach, communicate in the seller's language, prefer WhatsApp, and stop for confirmation immediately before sending.
C
This starts from current inventory, not the old shortlist, while reusing every saved buying rule and presentation preference.
Run a fresh Girona used-car search using the saved system and update cars.bombyxlabs.com. Use signed-in external Chrome for Facebook Marketplace and Wallapop, search broadly, close temporary tabs as you go, and do not contact sellers.

Send them this page and tell them to use one of the three prompts above. A fresh search needs access to the saved project on this computer. Contacting sellers also requires the account holder's signed-in Wallapop, Facebook, or WhatsApp browser session and confirmation immediately before anything is sent.
Facebook accounts only weeks old, thin Wallapop profiles, zero-history sellers, unclear ownership, and implausibly cheap late-model cars.
Examples rejected include a 300,000 km Seat Leon, 278,000 km Tiguan, 240,000 km Megane, and 200,000 km Dodge Journey.
Rubí, Barcelona, Palafolls, and most province-wide “Girona” ads. L’Escala cars were not good enough to justify the trip.
Unproven 1.0 EcoBoost and 1.2 PureTech wet-belt engines, warning signs, vague no-description ads, four-seat cars, and high-risk old luxury cars.
The previously surfaced Ford Fiesta, Suzuki Swift, and Citroen C3 Coches.net links now redirect to the general search page.
Dealer ads without a clear cash price, transfer cost, physical address, and written warranty were not treated as credible finalists.
Facebook Marketplace was searched in the signed-in external Chrome session with Girona set to about 10 km and a €2,500–€7,000 price range. Wallapop was searched from the signed-in session with a 10 km radius, petrol, closest-first sorting, and recent inventory. Local dealers, Coches.net, AutoScout24, and other major Spanish inventory sources were checked separately.
Every finalist was opened individually. Seller history, description, photos, location, ITV, maintenance, mileage, price, and warranty language were reviewed where available. The cards show the short version; extra technical notes remain available for later if a seller replies.
Five-seat check: each model is normally homologated for five, but verify “S.1: 5” on the registration document and physically test all five seatbelts. Put the booster in the rear before agreeing to buy; narrow city cars can be legal but tight for three children.
