^Can't bate the oul Hiace engine!

89' Golf van basking in the sunshine in the car park of my local Tesco this morning. Not showing much in the way of battle scars for a 30 year old van. Can only assume it got a respray in the not too distant past.

north Wicklow/south Dublin over the weekend...

Loving the W124 and W126 tc20. The W126 is very stately looking. Proper built to last Mercs from an era before they started turning out the cheaply made tat.

V8 Interceptor

That's one of my favourite cars of all time, the 300zx twin turbo.

It caught my eye straight away. Its a beaut.

cheers - yep, the W126 still has the gravitas, and that C124 in particular looked stunning, classic lines. I've had a few old Mercs in the past, both of those particular models are certainly on my 'to-do' list

Old diesel

Always found the W124 to be a lovely car to travel in anytime I sat into one.

Taxis usually back in the day.

Used to see that Minor regularly. Lovely old thing.

Same owner since 1978 too!

A French Jag enthusiasts club driving from Dublin to Connemara to Kerry over the last few days. Lots more Jags about but didn't have time to take more pics.

Last week's visit in Poland:







Quite unusual to see Kuwait number plates in Eastern Europe.

On the other note - these two were parked just few metres apart, same housing estate!

Saw the 7 series during the week. Rare enough pre-facelift model and its still with owner #1. My brother spotted the Hiace today..I know it to see locally, older couple drive it and it really is minty fresh..would love to know what miles are on it.

SmartinMartin

Was your brother pissed?

Duke O Smiley

I've said it to him loads of times to hold the bloody phone straight, but he tries to be all discreet taking photos so nobody looks at him funny :P

No pic but just to report another sighting of the Lexus Ls400 from post #4547 in same place. Seen it on way in but gone by the time I looked out the window.

Nekarsulm

In Cavan town this morning, never saw it before.
Even has "period correct" alloys under all that road dirt..





Also saw what looked like a white Colt Starion on a ZV plate, but hadn't the phone on me...
