    Lovely bus looks like it's being worked too, always good to see :)

    It was a fire brigade one, fully kitted out with all the gear on it, in Durrow, Co Laois, it was spotless.

    a couple of recent spots from sunny Mallorca -
    Renault Express - I guess these were the forerunner of the Kangoo? (gotta love the etch-a-sketch design lines)
    and a Citroen Mehari.
    I'll post some of the older stuff in the classics section

    Believe it or not if you seen the condition of the old fella that was driving it you would be amazed it's only a light broke.

    And while I'm here I suppose, this isn't a spot exactly but the photo was taken today and I think the content qualifies :p My parent's 20 year old Golf cabrio turned 20, and is being used for the first time in six years this month :D I want to tidy it up a bit, replace the missing back center cap and have some flakey lacquer on the boot lid tidied but they're enjoying it as it is :D

    There is a bit of a funny story behind this very car too, it was sold by Sweeney & Forte on the Howth Road...the same place that maintained my Tipo for its last owner for 15 years!
