    That's because - like it or not - a D "suits" a premium car better than any other reg.. hence also why some people will pay a bit more for one with it.

    It doesn't bother me at all! I just don't understand it. Do the people in the car want people to think they are from Dublin? A good few of my rural friends insist on a D reg when buying new for resale reasons.

    Betya that Merc in the op doesn't reside in Dublin, but it has a D reg!

    Does anyone have any idea who owns it?

    I saw it posted on Bradys Castleknock facebook page.

    Probably the owner of bradys Id say!

    Car I had before this one was a D reg. Mechanic told me after getting it, oh be careful, Dublin reg, could be crashed or anything :confused:

    All bar one of my cars have been C reg, none of them spent much time in Cork. I wouldn't get overly hung up on a cars reg County being an indication of condition. There are some I'd be weary about but you're buying the car and not the reg.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,862 ✭✭✭RobAMerc


    imo a D reg doesnt add value to a car but a non D reg does devalue it, I think you close off a part of the market to yourself if you dont reg a car as a D.

    By the way the photos of the S65 were taken in mullingar - I can think of one person from there who would be able to afford that sort of wedge. He may even have bought it for a family member or something.

    Otherwise it could have been on a blast from Dublin for the day.

    151 white Range Rover in Blanchardstown and a 151 Dacia Logan both Dublin regs.


  • Registered Users Posts: 983 ✭✭✭The Royal Scam


    Generic small white van in Carlow 151 cw 143 and a lovely white Gti or Gtd with a meath reg.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,097 ✭✭✭Roger Mellie Man on the Telly


    151 D Macan in Glendalough. Double first for me, first Macan I've seen and the first 15 plate.

    Not a pretty car imo.

    151-C-81 today
    White BMW ( something )
    Couldn't stare at it as the driver was outstaring me looking at it.


  • Registered Users Posts: 414 ✭✭JamieIsGod


    Saw a 151-D Audi Q3 in Howth earlier

    I don,t see anything wrong with KE plates on a car after all it is one of the most beautiful counties in the Country. MH plates,LS and W plates all look good to me too.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,985 ✭✭✭✭dgt


    All the small mickey waving over county plates again!

    I have yet to see a 151 and don't really care either :D

    I see the clever use of 141-D-142 has stuck with the same make this year. Last year was a RR, this year 151-D-152 is a Discovery.


  • Registered Users Posts: 15,296 ✭✭✭✭Vicxas


    If i have to see another Dacia Duster 151 I'll run it off the road.

    Hideous cars.

    151 MO 70 White Seat Leon, although not an Fr, has nice upgraded alloys.

    151 MO 71 Dark Red facelifted focus. Looks like the rear got a minor change too.


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,574 ✭✭✭John_Rambo


    Still haven't seen a 151 car. I'll be out of Dublin next week and I'll probably see a few.


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,875 ✭✭✭Foxhole Norman


    Saw a nice 151-C-Something or Other Skoda Octavia VRS in White with black wheels and some red trim I think, lovely looking.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,937 ✭✭✭Tropheus


    6 pages and not one picture of a 151 plate :rolleyes:


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,937 ✭✭✭Tropheus


    Thought I'd take the bull by the horns and fix that:

    I had the phone in my hand tonight to take a pic of the 151 white bmw but as I said the driver was glaring at me staring at his car.. Maybe I looked a bit dodgy LOL
    So I decided to leave it.

    There are people out there that will buy one just so they can have a 151 plate and no regard taken of quality

    Saw a 151-W Merc CLA on Saturday from the window of my trusty 05 Accord - which will probably have to do me for another 10 years! :D

    One of us clearly isn't paying enough tax... ;)
