^ love the /8, I had a 230.6 in the same colour scheme albeit a left hooker as my first classic.
Same as the one posted by Irish Player, it was the earlier 1st gen model. The later series (72-75 iirc) lost the fly windows and had the ribbed rear lights. Very comfortable cruiser, huuuuge boot, discs all-round.

edit to add a few recent-ish spots..
I spotted the Celica in Bray recently where its been parked up - quite a bit of surface rust but hopefully someone is going to restore this to its former glory.
It's a 1600cc, I remember these when new, I thought they were one of the coolest cars ever!
I'm sure the VW is well know in club circles - it looks factory fresh.
I haven't seen the Porsche for a while, it was a regular sight around North Wickow

Steamy windows...

Nice moody shot as usual jozi.

jozi · 20-10-2019 05:50PM

Thanks, it was shot through the car window which surprisingly isn't noticeable :cool:

Now you are talking !!! and it's the one with the "Big Bumper's" too. And not only that, but has the chrome's on the front and back wing's,,, only thing missing is the chrome "Shade's" on the headlamp's. Has to be one of the best car's ever built.:D

sligojoek · 20-10-2019 07:12PM

That's like something Edward Hopper would paint

SmartinMartin · 22-10-2019 08:32PM

Kenmare, outside Fermoy and M7:

JabbaTheHut · 23-10-2019 11:50AM

I'd need to double check, but I'm sure that Sierra was bought new buy the same guy that is still using it as his, only, and daily car.

SmartinMartin · 23-10-2019 12:14PM

Driver was in his 60s, white hair bald on top, white/grey short beard and tache. Think he was wearing glasses.

Sounds like the man alright. He's looked after it well.

Duke O Smiley · 23-10-2019 02:19PM

Last change of ownership on that Sierra was in September 97, though it could well have been the driver's company car or something along those lines, before he bought it for himself.

Could very well be the case.

Or I could just be plain wrong.

How did you check about the change of ownership, Duke?

Ultra rare beast on the M7 an hour ago, an Audi/ Auto Union 1000s. Gorgeous.

I know where there is one that was stripped, ready to be painted, and left in the rain. A shame.

Saw it on the phone yesterday and thought it was a Morris Minor.

Outside Finnegan's in Annacotty, they have all sorts of vintage auto décor both inside and out now.

Garzard · 29-10-2019 07:52PM

Ballsbridge tonight - also the Rolls in the background which I posted a couple months ago I think.

What's the story with the tape on the headlights? Left hand drive lights, or just holes in them?

Edit. Just copped. She's a left hooker.

kaizersoze · 29-10-2019 11:30PM

Just noticed the taped headlights. Thought it was on holiday in France but it's a left hooker.:D
