Today I saw a classic and took a pic thread! Part 2

tc20

and a couple of spots from recent holidays in Gran Canaria.
There seems to be very few daily classics on the road over there compared to previous years.
Two that escaped the camera were a Merc W114 saloon, and a gorgeous Puegeot 404.
Still quite a few Merc W124 & S124 plying their trade as taxis, but most of the cabs now are either S210s or Toyotas

The Passat (is this a B3 ?) are getting thin on the ground over here too, I always liked them as a solid old workhorse of a thing, even if they weren't the VW designers finest moment (I always thought the front end styling was dour)

Type 17

first registerd in this country after 91 so it should

The Revenue Commissioners text that I read recently spoke of black-on-white plates for "vehicles first registered" in 87-91 and Europlates for "vehicles first registered" from '92-on, but does not use the phrase "first registered in Ireland/the state", so it seems that (thank god) the date of original registration defines the type of plate to be used after registration in Irl - after all, if the phrase used was "first registered in Ireland", that would mean that a 1920's car imported in the 70's could use an old-style plate, but an identical car imported in 2014 could not...

Looks like you had a nice day out. Nice fire engine lurking in the background, looks a bit like a 1966 Dennis I had once. Just a chassis/cab, no fire bodywork left on it. 17000 miles on it.
