    Both cars are local and driven by elderly women. Daihatsu is 1 owner, Lexus has had the same owner since 2002.

    That Lexus has been about for years, Great to see someone’s ownership nearly span two decades.

    This Toyota is fast becoming one of the most spotted cars of late, either that or there's a good few of us living on the Aran Islands :)
    Gammygils also posted the Merc recently

    OMG, that is the first time I have ever seen one of those Rovers in estate form. I knew they existed but never saw one before! Looks to be in fantastic condition too. :)

    I don't think I can recall seeing one before either. A company I worked for in another life had a couple of the hatchbacks (exact same colour) which I drove occasionally. I always liked them, nice interiors for what they were.

    This poor old Almera was brought into Summerhill spares in Coolock yesterday. Can't be bought, had to be broke and crushed :( Nuns in a convent in Drumcondra have the Carina. Have seen it on the move in the past

    Nice "import" Mazda in our local Forest Park today.

    Hard to believe it's almost 30 years of age.
    Remember going to a "Motor Show" in a hotel in Navan and seeing these in MX5 form, and also BMW's Z1 on display.
    ( the one with the drop-down doors).

    you mean the plates on the Volvo, no EU badge, county name? yeah, very clean it was too, spotted in Cobh.

    meanwhile, more recent north Wicklow sightings.. the Mercedes is a regular, if not daily, driver.
    Nice colour on the Alfa; not so sure on the plates. Each to their own an' all dat but . . why not get Italian style plates for it?
