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.

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.

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.

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

75LK539
Looks to be in the same company from the late 90s and in use.

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

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).

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

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

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

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.

The BMW is a regular driver, and I think the Beetle is used more as an advertising tool than a daily driver.

Jesus all those 120xxx registration plates posted lately just look so shitty. I don't own any classic and probably never will but the thoughts of having a 6 numbers on a plate makes me shudder. Apologies rant over.

@Tzar, I appreciate every contribution to every "spotted" thread. You know that old saying "its the thought that counts"

though some people can be a bit picky :pac:

For youngtimers we have a great thread on the main motors forum

What's the oldest car you saw on the road today?
