***Motors@Midway - Saturday September 29th***

    It's been a while since we've had one of these and we're giving plenty of notice.We're organising a meet for Saturday September 29th at 12.00 at Midway in Portlaoise.

    It's exit 17 off the M7. It's impossible to miss but just to hammer it home this is the place.

    This is an informal gathering of like minded people that just wish to talk and look at cars and anyone acting the d1ck will be told swiftly where to go. That means no racing, burnouts, drifting - that's not what the meets have ever been like or will ever be like.

    What usually happens is we arrive, have a chat, get a munch and chat some more. It's a great way to get to know other posters and to (hopefully) see some nice metal. It doesn't matter what you drive, it makes no difference and everyone is welcome. As always, if people cant get there under their own steam and need lifts or anything just mention it and I'm sure something can be sorted out.

    Indeed! I saw it at one of the meets this year, think it may have been the one in January.

    Sounds about right...didn't start the correction work until April.. So it was in a shocking state back then...well it was very dull and wheels peeling.

    I'll finish my last bit of correction before then....just needed a break from it!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,724 ✭✭✭✭CianRyan


    Hmm, not sure about this. I'll have to see about a few things.

    Love how eager you are for this one, knowing you'll be turning up in your new Derve mobile wearing your new sales shirt with your suit jacket hanging in the rear side window. :P

    Jaysus the MPS is 9.5 now, thats some bargain


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,929 ✭✭✭✭ShadowHearth


    there is one more silver MPS now for sale in octane. cant remember the price now. looks like more competition.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,891 ✭✭✭✭MetzgerMeister

    It's grey, not silver, with nearly double the milage of mine going for 8450. It wasn't competition for me but it won't matter to me after tomorrow, I'm trading in the MPS against the 2.2 diesel model.
