    recent north Wicklow/ south Dublin sightings.

    The W123 was in fantastic condition and gorgeous, not too common colour (imo)

    Coolock, Dublin, an '82. Have seen it on the road a few times over the years, so gets well used.

    I had one (just a 1.3) as my second ever car, wrote it off in less than 6 months :(

    Saw it in Waterville a couple of years ago.

    It had a Riley radiator and said Riley 1936 on a rear plate. I presume it’s some sort of Riley based special, or possibly aftermarket bodywork made by a firm called Phoenix built back in the thirties.

    Thanks 😊 Yep, got around the halls, I was there about 4/5 hours I’d say. I didn’t bother with one hall, it is exclusively Fords, nothing against Fords, just not my interest.

    Friendly crowd too. Chatted to exhibitors and other attendees at different stands. Well worth the trip.

    Wasn’t sure if it was bat-lilac or bad-lilac from the font on the boot

    Jag in Cavan Town, about 2 weeks ago.

    Two lads driving a Germsn registered van.

    Headed off up the N3, possibly for the boat.

    I didn't see this one but I thought it was worth posting because it's cool even though it's a replica.

    @masterboy123 spotted it in a car park near the Champs Elysees.
