    ^ There are a few cars in this country from UAE and Kuwait. Handy for speed cameras!

    The learner plate just looks odd on it though!

    Yeah....strange that the UAE reg car has an 'L' plate on it?!

    Also, the '06' reg Audi may have an 'advert' plate on it as opposed to a real reg ...i.e. a made-up plate for the purpose of sale (i.e. an import awaiting registration here in the Republic). Having said that, I have seen the odd 'year-county-year' registration over the years on our roads.

    If it an advertisement plate, is that Politically correct considering the reg belongs to somebodys VW Golf?

    Didn't manage to get a picture but there was a blue M5 parked outside the office last week with a English reg "M5 DOA" I'm not superstitious but I'm not sure I'd drive a car with that reg. on it !

    That would be a VW Citi Golf, which are still made in South Africa. There is a few of them here.

    Damn. Thats less interesting than my theory that someone locked it away unreg'd for 15 years. Still a cool car though

    Sure I saw a 98-D Mazda 323 Mk3 going around the Dublin recently. They too were made in South Africa until recently.

    The corrolla might be a jap import because they might have been issued there before in Ireland

    I've seen a few of these JDM E100 Corolla estates with 01-D and 02-D plates:

    Apart from the unusual scrawl on the reg plate, the ///M3 badge was homemade (deffo not an ebay jobbie)!!!

    I would guess that they are the date of first registration 13/10/82

    That a temporary German plate and the date is the expiry date of validity
