Hello everybody,
I'm Chris, I'm from the Netherlands and I recently I have been thinking about buying a second-hand Hobie Mirage Adventure Islands from 2011.
The reason I'm thinking about buying one is because of it's versatility, the fact that you can sail solo and it's size (relatively speaking).
Now because I'm new to anything Hobie I was hoping you guys/girls could answer the below questions.

- The seller is asking 2800,- euro (3263,- dollar) for it including trampolines, beach trolley and tillerstick. Is this a realistic price if it's in good condition (haven't seen it yet).
- I have a small car (Toyota Aygo) without a towbar. Theoretically speaking a can transport the trimaran on the roof of the car but theory isn't everything. Any advise here is appreciated.
- I don't have a garage but I have a big garden so 'm planning on building a sort of shed to keep the worst of the weather out. Is this good enough for storing the kayak?

Any and all advice will be very much appreciated.

Chris, you need to specify whether you are talking about a Hobie AI (single) or a Tandem (double).
