I can hear MantaMad jumping up and down..lol:D
The Audi is unusual too being a two door?

Tommyboy40

Although I'm new to the forum i thought of him when i saw it. It's not for sale, owner planning on restoring it even though it's sat there for 3 years, why do people just let them rot? The Audi is nice, for sale at €1500 but i'd say it's been untouched for a while. I photographed the hearse because i know that there's a fan here

How much is he looking for the Audi? What condition is it in?

Tommyboy40

He said €1500, car didn't look too bad, complete anyway

manta mad

wwaaaaaahhhhhaayyyy :eek:

an early irish manta :cool:

oohh id like another one of them !

where abouts would that be in cork now ?????????

Not only a manta, but a GTE. I spoke to the garage man, told him i knew someone who would take his arm off for it, he said he could have sold it ten times over but it's not his to sell, usual will be restored story. The garage is in Crookstown, past Ballincollig, left turn off the main road on the way to Beal Na Blath. Maybe you could be more persuasive (with a Baseball bat)

That Audi needs to be saved !

I agree.

Likewise the Manta!!

(It's not a GTE btw...it's an early coupe with later front bumper, boot spoiler...and GTE sticker tacked on).
