    Parked my car in there yesterday morning, joined by a black dodge charger (think that was the bad guys car in bullit), porchse 356, Jensen interceptor and another 60's merc. All parked around the same few spaces. Like stepping back in time.

    I saw a Black Charger last friday on upper Baggott. It was reversing into a parking spot. The noise of it nearly made me wet myself. Pathetic I know.

    Charger is always around there/fitzwilliam street, lovely condition and makes you feel confident about parking your baby on the street.

    I know the Charger and the owner very well. (He had a Mustang too). The car was yellow before being painted black. It's totally awesome, 7 litres of pure muscle and goes like $hit off a shiny shovel. At full throttle you can hear it streets away.

    To be honest I don't know the answer to that. The car is a daily driver and I don't know if gets taken to shows.

    Wine 4 door 280se. funny plates. isle of man I think.

    Hadn't seen the 356 before. There is a black one around town, very clean and sounds great. Driven by a fashion designer who dabbles in glass design, for waterford cyrstal I think. Its the nicest 356 I have ever seen.

    No. Just a typo. I think the car really suits the guy and its a joy to see it rainy Dublin in March. I'd love one but I am afraid of 50's (?) cars. Just to far back and must cost a fortune to keep as a daily driver.
