MG midget. Influenced Japanese micro-cars.

They're a dime a dozen. You can see them every day in Dublin.

Tonight at airside, Swords.

No pics as I was driving, but I saw an eddie stobart truck at tesco rathfarnham do a u turn at the lights. In the one lane practically, it was just a plain t junction.
Burnout and everything. That chap is a legend... fair play if you're reading this!! The tyre marks on the road were epic and this was daytime and all!!

Unknown, I'd imagine they have more than one supplier ??
Either way, my attention was taken up by:

-Wait, what
-Ah he can't be
-Oh he is
-He's doing a u turn at the lights
-Is that?
-Yess, yes it is, that's tyre smoke

Legend. Possibly the coolest thing I've seen done on the road. Burnout in a truck, black smoke and burnin' rubber. I was in the Z , went for some spirited driving in his honor afterwards :P

I'd hope I would have identified enough that the driver (if he reads here) could identify himself but have not been specific enough that his boss would identify! :pac:

A rigid I take it? How is a burnout going to help an artic?

It was an artic, burnout was to assist the cab turn around quicker than its turning circle would usually allow. One tire fire but still epic.
I really need to fit my dashcam, I got one like a year ago but never fitted it, never hold a car more than a few weeks recently so couldnt be bothered.

Lambo with banners on it in Booterstown earlier, early arrival for Cannonball I suppose.

Cannonball would be much better event if not that stickers on cars. They ruin everything. I know sponsors but do they really need to say: Look my car is Ferrari F12 and my cannonball number is 12 as well ?? Or maybe it's only me. Maybe i'm the only one who don't like stickers on cars.

Aventador (I think?)


But I have a serious lust for this lady

It was a cool car alright, completely unassuming for those not in the know.

Seems to be the weekends for it, I saw a DB4, a 1930's Citroen and what I think was a rolls Royce (but just a glimpse) all one behind the other on the back road between clonsilla station and Lucan around 11am today, followed by another 3 or 4 equally classic looking motors a few minutes later all going in the same direction.

A meet on somewhere local maybe?

Really need to get a dashcam in the wife's motor.

Busy morning at Nutts Corner, awesome experience driving these machines! It was all over way too quickly. Few more to follow.

It was the first time I ve seen or heard of it. Had to put Mazda Coupe 90s into google as model name did not come up on cartell.

Autosport

This beauty caught my attention and I may or may not have followed it for a while just to hear that beautiful sound
