Spotted this Lancia in Bundoran yesterday, seemingly available for sale on a garage forecourt. Dunno when I saw one last.




and this yoke was in Killybegs today. Probably a kitcar.




Lancia taxed till November.

Saw this parked when I was out walking yesterday. Looks like a daily driver, baby seat in the back.

I think it's a porche speedster replica. They were a kit kar built on a beetle chassis.

Yeah a Speedster or a 356. Or maybe they are both the same thing, I'm not well up on that era of Porsche.

89 KK registered Carina II. I've seen newer ones at car shows but this was an old feller's daily drive I'd say.

Also saw a 95 Corolla on the way home.Filthy and battered

bizarrely I just saw a 92 reg Carina II and at the same moment a 93 Corolla went the other way. Must be Old Toyotafest today

76 MkII Escort (VZM was around '76 )
A '90 Jetta and an old Ford Camper

Drove past a red 1971 Fiat 500 yesterday on main road by Little Island. All I could think was I hope it's not in a crash. They wouldn't have a hope !

Cavan town. Thought it might be a UK import, not many 2 door cars sold here....., but it has OPEL badges, instead of Vauxhall.

The two doors were mostly popular in 93 or 94 I started my apprenticeship in an opel garage in 98 and I remember anything newer was very scarce. It was the same when the astra g came out in 98 there were a few 3 doors and most of them were the 1.2 engine.

Saw this beauty the other day :):)
