    That’s a gem!

    I’m pretty sure it lives on the north side of Dublin, previously near me. I’ve posted it here before a while back.

    My daughter snapped this one in Galway City today. Don't know what's going on with the tail end :confused:

    I wonder what the car in front of the Merc is? I was thinking it looked like a Renault Safrane

    Spotted this one Tuesday morning.
    ZV12046. One owner from new, 1988 Ford Sierra 1.8 LX 5DR A, automatic petrol.

    Spotted a lovely Bentley last week, also a ZV license plate I think, but unfortunately the video was overwritten before I remembered to take the video off the SD card; need a bigger SD card :/

    1991 Volkswagen Golf GTI in North County Dublin.

    It stood out parked among all the modern cars.

    That little Clio used to live around the corner from me when I was in Dublin last year. He does have a big Alsatian in the passenger seat a lot of the time


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,912 ✭✭✭I Was VB


    That Clio lives around the corner from me. Great to see a mid 90s hatch still on the road that’s not a Toyota, lol.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,239 ✭✭✭Lurching


    Does anyone else feel like a bit of a psycho taking these photos?
    I always have to do it a bit covertly.

    Ah sometimes. But then you rationalise it as part of your commitment to the historical record of old pieces of metal.

    Had no clue it was a local car. Don't think I've ever seen it around.

    Have taken to shouting the reg at my dashcam, as most shots are to the side, and not in front of me.

    Green Jag S-Type 66'. Few more years and she can retire.
