    so as dealers are open since yesterday, just curious to see how long it'll take to see the first 12 regs of the year - I was out and about in Cork city all day yesterday and didn't spot one

    (btw Mods, if there's another similar thread, please merge!:D)

    Happy New Year to all!!!

    Saw a 12 reg Qashqai (possibly a +2) on Walkinstown Embankment Road last night. Somewhere around the 500 number for reg's.

    Possibly just been collected from Windsor Belgard and on the way home.

    12 reg Mercedes CLS in Ballymore Eustace last night. Was a nice light brown/golden colour...suited the shape I thought.

    You could only register them since yesterday I think


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,475 ✭✭✭✭Blazer


    Every year I always keep an eye out for the new reg and it's always on some shítbox that I first see it...
    For once I'd like to see it on a proper car;)

    Didn't have someone sat in the bosses office chewing the fat, while his tow bar was being butchered on in the garage, if that's what you mean :p

    You are probably living on your own money and not banks. They are not their cars. :rolleyes:

    I picked up my own '12 Mondeo Titanium Estate earlier on today, 6 months after ordering but worth the wait! :) First '12 reg I've seen 'cept another lad in work who picked up his '12 Focus yesterday! Ah the smell of new car! :D

    How true. One neighbour dropped nearly €100k on an X5 a few years ago. He can barely afford to tax it now and there are steel wires coming out of his tyres:rolleyes:

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,175 ✭✭✭Top Dog


    Spotted my first one in Navan today - 12 MH (I think) 66 - A Kia Sorrento in Silver.

    This was followed by 12 D 1071 - Brown Audi A4 TDI spotted at J14 services.

    Hat-trick was a 12 D XXXX - Ford Mondeo Estate in Silver


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,226 ✭✭✭angelfire9

    Only 3rd overall last year. Toyota top again, but VW managed to overtake Ford.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 194 ✭✭C Eng


    Spotted 12 KE 12

    Ford CMAX


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,145 ✭✭✭✭Gael23


    saw a few under 100 today so they must be starting at zero.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,820 ✭✭✭mailforkev


    Just saw my first one!

    12-D-2**, one of those awful looking Lexus CTs, little old lady driving it.

    Saw an Evoque too but as it got closer it turned out to be only 11-D. As an aside, the five door really isn't a patch on the three door looks wise.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,721 ✭✭✭E39MSport


    12 KE Disco today
