Nice little Fiat with apt number plate at the Taste of Dublin at the weekend.
The BMW is a regular driver, and I think the Beetle is used more as an advertising tool than a daily driver.

E30 isn't as brick like as usual!

Was it green?

that'd be a combination of the speed and my crappy cameraphone.
Yep, its dark green, original Irish reg, regular driver. I see it occasionally, looks to be kept in very good condition.

tc20, does the Fiat 500 reg plate read '70 L 500' or '70 L 900'?

Neither are showing on cartell.ie..

'tis "500", i'll admit, it does look like I was on the sauce when I took the pic

Something smells fishy there. I presume that number would have to have been reserved in advance and then the prospective owner would have to wait until it's turn came to be issued. I'd find it hard to believe that 500 vehicles first registered in 1970 were imported and re-registered in Limerick city (bearing in mind that many others would have taken the ZV option).

Roller in Fizzbra and a stunning bus on M7 today, obviously a full resto;

I'd say it could be a made up plate for promo purposes (though it looked legit), the car was beside a stand at the taste of Dublin - my moneys on some drainpipe bedecked bean grinder owing it

I saw a stunning slammed Karmann Gaia off Thomas Street yesterday, was too late with the camera.

The plate on the bus reads '75 LK ---'... if I'm correct?
So an import either restored here or prior to importation.

Kenmare today. What a car. I think it's featured before recently by someone else;

Cheensbo

I really really love those Traction Avants, stunning cars, my bedside spare change box has one printed on it - rich old me will have one, but i might have to fill a few more boxes first

One from Kilmuckridge at the weekend, it was exceptionally clean!

I think it's just had a paint job. Seen it recently in primer.

I posted a similar car a while back which lurks around the corner from me in Skerries. It's in worse condition and has a roof rack and is on ZV plates.

^^ @ cheensbo - is that a Mi16 Peugeot? Great spot if it is, rare enough here when new, even more so now :cool:

That was the one. Still think they are in the top 5 of the most beautiful cars ever built. Nice to think there's a few of them still around.

So true!

Lovely example. A pity more of them aren't still around. A mate of mine let his I6 1989 go to sh1te in his front garden. :mad:

Spotted today in Rathfarnam. John (the owner) bought this new in 1967 and has driven it since.

Johns memory must be slipping a bit, it's reg says 1971 !
Beautiful wagon though.
