They're tec screws :eek:

The Sierra and the Micra could be the first pics in a, 'There, I fixed it', thread

I wonder was the Sierra taxed....the disc probably cost more than the car is worth. Cars of this period are getting very rare and few will make it as Classics. :-(

Tis... And tested :eek:

Taxed as a 1.8 though could have had it's boot replaced at some stage... I doubt

Original Dublin reg, nice find!

selectamatic

Irish Italian owner with a well known surname.

Used to have a lovely mk5 r32 golf before the fiat. In my mind he's a man who went the cheap tax route the right way!

A fiat 500 abarth does tend to make appearances round the same area when his relations are home.

I would phoned the cops and reported some one flashing a gun in a suspected stolen getaway car, if that doesn't get the guards attention then nothing will,

davy did I see your Subaru in Clarehall a few days ago?

That style number plate was gone before that model car was introduced.

Is it just an e39 touring? Looks odd excluding the plate.

I know there are some Fiat lovers on here, so here is a little Bertone Punto.

Not strictly "on the road" but a mechanic was doing something as I passed earlier today.
Stopped for the photo a few hours later when I was returning. NCT out this week, no tax disk newer than 2013 on the screen.
Carrigallen, Co. Leitrim.

No, I think it was standard enough. When I came up behind it, I just thought it looked strange. Checked the reg on motorcheck and saw I had reason to think it odd.

Saw these two over past few days. Citroen looked as if it's a daily driver. Looked lovely.



Passed the Marina on motorway 2 mornings this week. Afraid I was never a fan of them...... Nice to see it on road though.
