I think that in automotive terms, we are going through a 'shi77y wheels' period and have been for a while.

She's quiet a beaut all right. More time Im spending around the cars over her the more I think I'll never be satisfied at an Irish show ever again because the level of cars and sheer attention to detail is mind blowing. You have to appreciate that all these cars arn't at any show per se. The whole thing is to park up and sit around. The Audi is flawless but it was sat with a group of Golfs in a bus stop and they'd driven for 4 hours that morning to get down

Why is the rear plate yellow?

Spotted this today. This was the local AI mans car from new. Been in a shed for 7 or 8 years since he quit driving. He passed away last year, and someone has got their mitts on it.......

Always liked the bid bumper Jetta in that colour.

I hope they look after it as it looks a really straight car.

Some drivers 'back in the day' (usually those who lived in border counties) seemed to think that a yellow rear plate would make them stand out a little less when the visited N.I. or the UK.

Read that as a man who liked old Meath Reg's (AI) instead of Artificial insemination.

Oh dear

What I would like to know is, why is it called Opel (shouldn't the badge say vauxhall if it's rhd?)

No, Opels are RH/LHD, Vauxhalls are just for the UK market

Er, wotsa wrong with the Passat? (apart from it being a VW...)

Std ride height. Steel wheels. Mustn't grumble.

I don't know should I be more shocked by your lack of style or the fact I've not posted a pic of a VW Derby. Actually, its actually one of the VW range Ive seen the least of the past 2 weeks. Mabye 1 or 2 at most. Big thing that I wouldnt see in Ireland is 2-door Passat or Jetta's

Duke O Smiley

Wouldn't be a fan of my luck myself but I certainly do appreciate the work gone into the cars

Sorry I was on the phone and thought the old type Passat was a Derby which is a nice original car. The rest are skangers... I really can't understand why people do that to cars.

Arthur Daley

Yes, the passat is tidy. Like my cars original so the rest of them are 'felt spec to me matter how much work went into them.

Well from all the shows that I've been to in Ireland over the last few years, I reckon that there is more skill, imagination and attention gone into a mere handful of those fabulous looking vehicles in Worthersee than the fields full of rusty ZV reg yokes you get here.
