    That's a Glanbia store the Cobra is at, probably going in for a roll of barbed wire and a bag of sheep feed....

    Probably :rolleyes:

    See him on the 7am rainy N11 commute to Dublin sometimes as well - daily driver :confused:

    Saw a cream 99GL with Minilites on Leeson St, in wrong lane to get shot :(

    Red ZV Stag wellying it on the N11 this morning, will hopefully have shot later.

    Wish I'd taken a photo now. Saw two yellow Porsche/VW 913s fresh off the boat from the States. One was 1970 with a 1.6 from Long Beach, other was 2.0. I'll see if I can get a pic tomorrow.

    914?

    No queue behind the Stag on the N11, took off like a scalded cat as I tried to get closer for a good shot :eek:

    Series 1 Rover P6 (on ZV plates) whilst collecting my girlfriend from work today. I was in my Wolseley, so I just had to park next to it to :P. It was really stunning; brown with brown interior, belongs to a young geography teacher of all people.

    Just as I was leaving then, an 87 Sierra passes us. Driven by a flat-cap wearing old chap.

    And then, not long afterwards, 71-D plate W114 Merc. LHD and the indicators were red so I presume it has come from America.

    Brilliant day for spotting!

    Hi all, dropped into my local scrap yard , looking for a wheel for a trailer. This is sitting in the yard. Very nice 4.2 Sovereign, some spots on the bodywork, but interior is spotless in burgundy leather. He says it wont be crushed till he tried to sell it, but anyone interested would want to get a move on. I saw the remains of a BMW Dixie one day, asked them to leave it till the next day, but it was baled up when I got back.
    Anyway, he got this Jag in Dublin, where it was left into a garage 10 years ago and never collected again.

    Its in Felix Gormleys yard at Crossdoney, Cavan, btw.

    I managed to find a home for this in the showroom today, although technically not a classic!

    1970 Morris Minor Van on UK plates. I was parked two cars up in the Wolseley, got a friendly wave and beep of the horn from the owner as he passed a few minutes later. I moved off a few minutes afterwards and found myself behind him for a bit going out of Howth and along the Dublin road. Loads of people taking photos and smiling, and that just makes my day tbh. Marvelous day for a spin.

    That's a terrific picture - lovely car but lovely backdrop too.

    It's a bit like a photo shoot from a glossy classic car shoot.

    Not today, a few weeks back. And at night, outside a pub, so excuse the crappy shots. A 1953 Pontiac Chieftain with a big-block Dodge and four-speed Hydramatic, done by a local American specials builder:
