Some brave soul about to brave the Rock Road traffic this morning:

Oh wow, that's an excellent spot! My 96 was 76-WW-517, I wonder if it's a massive coincidence or what...?

Maybe he was going back up Mt Merrion Ave, traffic at a crawl on the Rock Rd most days, you'd need a well tuned engine there or it could be embarrasing

Lol. I couldn't trust mine to sit in traffic for too long. At the last show in Terenure she died on me a few feet from the entrance....quite embarassing

My Accord on the other hand, she'll sit for hours in rush hour :cool:

I know I just got a pretty bad example of a 96, but it was an unreliable POS

I used to commute the Rock Road in my old Fiat Spider which had a handy manual fan switch. That thing was a lifesaver. You could see the temp drop out of the red before your eyes when it was switched on.

Had them on a couple of distressing old motorbikes in Elder Days. While there is a certain sense of accomplishment I still think they're rather better on a 'stat. :pac:

I think a plate like zy (might be something similar) was applied in 1986 after they got to yzy 999 and before the year county system was introduced in january 1987?

Looks a bit awkward if you ask me.

Like the headlight covers, very Jag d-type-esque

A 1977 MGB wouldn't have chrome bumpers. Just sayin'.

It looks good... put a roll cage in it, big block with a blower and it will be perfect.

ARTHUR, ZY WAS INDEED RE USED IN 86, BUT IT WAS AFTER THE NUMBERS E, G, 1234 ZY. oops numbers lock on. A few years ago i enquired on here about the ZY TR3 that has been pictured many times on Boards, I contacted the owner who p.m.ed me the history of the car. It was from Drogheda and I am from the other end of the county. On seeing this ZY200, I googled it and found a piece from the MG club how ZY 3147 (guess) had driven to Cork to get photogra9hed with ZY200. I cannot just recall the owner of Zy3147 , Niall perhaps.
It may yet happen that someone on here will identify the original owner, my guess is G.O'R or L.G., I am just putting initials in as 7 dont want to make an eejit of myself. I was fourvyears old when ZY 200 was registered, but both of the men whose initials I posted had TR's. I am off to ask my b.i. l. Who is older than me, about their cars

That B GT was parked in Rathmines last December AFIR

Indeed - nobody's going to remove chrome bumpers from an MG... but plenty of people want rid of the big rubber ones.

I'd prefer a rubber bumper GT or Midget to a chromeie
