    Mark II Ford Granada, with original Dublin registration, spotted in Swords today. (Somewhat spoiled by the unnecessary Euro plates).

    Nice - I love the Mk1 and Mk2 Granadas - very, very rare now though

    Is that the Mk3 "blamange" Granada to the right in that pic ? :D

    That only applies to cars registered after the 1st of January 1987. You can check it out in the NCT Manual PDF here http://www.ncts.ie/test.html

    I parked right next to a green '84 Mercedes 200D W123 at Nutgrove shopping centre today. It looked like it had been through the wars and back!

    Only vehicles registered after the 1st Janurary 1991 are required to have the Euro style plates.

    Vehicles registered between 1st January 1987 and 31st December 1990 are required to have black letters/numbers on a plain white reflective background.

    Saw a nice looking early CX in Listowel, parked outside the house where an mk 1 white CX used to sit/slump. Obviously a fan :)

    Mike.

    ps sorry did I say slump, I meant 'rest'

    Looks like an XK 150 all right.
    I saw that car in Waterford today as well, in the company of a silver E type.
    I had the top down in the Stag and they both gave me a friendly wave.
    Made me feel all warm and happy:rolleyes:

    This tidy looking Saab has been for sale outside a house in Emo Co. Laois for the last few weeks, priced at €3500 I think.

    I followed 2 white Triumph Stags on English plates to Youghal this morning, looks like they were heading to the ferry, needless to say Irish speed restrictions didn't apply to them.;) I got a photo but haven't figured out how to upload them onto my computer.:confused:

    Probably taken on a mobile.

    Junk, if you mail it from your phone to yourself (if that's the case), you should get a usable image.

    I'm not beaten just yet, it's just I have a phone that does everything I don't need it to do and everything I want it to do it doesn't want to. I'm seriously thinking of designing my own tbh. P.S. Justin P.M. me your mobile number, your number is in my old phone.:o
