    Think thats only been there for about 6 months. The S40 beside it has certainly been there for years. The MG is pretty rotten on the sills

    I think I was behind this on Nutley Lane on Saturday! It was moving very slowly, producing a lot of smoke and stink, and it turned into Nutley Ave or Road. Driver and passenger - maybe someone was getting a test drive?

    Really? This has been in the same spot for a while now, I know someone said 6 months but I remember it being longer. If someone has had it moving about recently then they have put it back in the same spot as before.

    I can't be certain - but it was a yellow MGBGT in need of a bit of TLC, and in the right neighbourhood.

    There is a yellow MGB GT that lives in Shrewsbury Road and often drives down to the seafront in Sandymount. It does sound a little throaty.

    Spotted this Renault 18 on Walkinstown Ave. Dublin this morning.

    Nice to see older cars with the correct plates on them.

    I remember Quinn plates, Ace of course, and Radiator Services in Ballybough / Ringsend , and some crowd,, maybe RS supplied garages with 'kits' to make their own white/red plates. The red rear was what set us apart from the others, pity there's no 'innovators' in the Dept anymore. (Mind you, WE were the first to adopt the 'Euro' plate style ;) )

    Here's a picture that I found today, but it was taken in July 1983

    My mam's first car, a blue Mini 850, CZW 58, which she bought second hand in Feb 1979 from Brennans Garage in Newbridge co. Kildare,

    Anyone have any other info on this car, what year is it? or maybe who owned it where it went etc... probably squished by now :(

    Here are a few from sunday. I posted some of them in motors, but they're probably better suited here.

    Spotted this in Cork City last week...

    cx1-1.jpg

    CX2-1.jpg

    It is advertised on donedeal at the moment

    http://cars.donedeal.ie/for-sale/vintagecars/3710143

    The ad is 46 days old though, so i don't know if it has changed hands in the mean time.

    Athlone run car park not conducive to good shots, however, any port in a storm :rolleyes:
    VW commercials look up to mountain runs :cool:
    (dash mounted camera before anybody gets on to me )

    Is that video capable dash-cam and where/how much ?
