    You're still not convincing me it isn't a springer!

    I know where you are coming from as the ears look like a springer but the front paws look to be too big for a springer.

    What's the story with all the part worns?


    Keeping the cover on the turf? Or there's a VW under them?

    That's a nice looking A3. Not a 1.8T by any chance, is it?

    Center caps?

    I bet that dog had something do with it. :pac:







    That's a very minor thing to worry about, btw.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 586 ✭✭✭ShaunieVW

    One of mine went missing ages ago and I lost sleep waiting for the replacement to arrive :pac:

    Na but it bugged the hell out of me


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,925 ✭✭✭GvidoR


    If one of mine go missing, I take them all off until I have a full set.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,730 ✭✭✭✭CianRyan


    No centre caps because it makes the car look tough! Haha

    Where is that?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,585 ✭✭✭ba_barabus


    Looks like it's near the flagstaff over looking Carlingford lough and Rostrevor?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,925 ✭✭✭GvidoR


    That's just like me taking pics of my cars near the water. :D

    It was the Motors make-out spot for years, quietened down of late.

    I think I got 3 months out of my fleabay parking LED's. Feckin one eyed monster....sort of. I'd be fairly pissed off if one of the night breakers went already in 3 months. Replacement fleabays arrived today from a far away land called Ashbourne. Didn't even realise it was an Irish seller til he emailed me a pic of the package before he posted it...which I found strange.

    That 7 series is unbelievable Voodoomelon. Would love one at some stage.

    Here is a crappy pic of mine with the centre caps :pac:

    Very clean indeed for a car that's done 200k kms.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,031 ✭✭✭Bpmull


    The red suits the mondeo actually. I had a mk2 focus in the same red it's probably one of the better non metallic colours they come in.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,450 ✭✭✭CharlieCroker


    Have you the original alloys? Might be looking for a set for my Mondeo


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 2,246 ✭✭✭Dia1988


    Nice Mondeo!

    What are you replacing it with?



    Side note: that 3rd screw in the centre of the front registration plate in the centre of the TS really annoys me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 893 ✭✭✭mhackett102

    Unfortunately not. This set was taken from another Mondeo at the garage when we bought the car - Sorry!
    Im pretty sure I seen a few sets for sale on donedeal though if you want to go that route :)

    Thanks!
    A family member is moving abroad in May so I have agreed to buy their 09 Polo (diesel) from them and to sell this to my parents.. But I love this car so much that I might just sell them the Polo and keep this :pac:
    But, the Polo is so much cheaper to run, has cheaper tax and cheaper insurance.

    Surprised you didnt notice the scrape on the back bumper :cool:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,851 ✭✭✭carzony


    I still think of those mondeo's as new.. Frightening to think that's already 7 years old. They do look great in red and grey.

    And black, black is the nicest IMO. Whichever one of ye was looking for alloys, I'll more then likely be selling mine once I can source a nice set of 17's. They're 16 5 spoke ones. I'm very very slightly starting to get tired of the look of mine, but it's a lovely cruiser. Needs sprucing up, could do with a front bumper respray, a good few stone chips which show up in black, seeing she has 121,000 miles on the odo.
