Hi all,
Vanilla are planning an update to the site on April 24th (next Wednesday). It is a major PHP8 update which is expected to boost performance across the site. The site will be down from 7pm and it is expected to take about an hour to complete. We appreciate your patience during the update.
Thanks all.

Today I saw a classic and took a pic thread! Part 2

    Attach them as you have, then right click the attachment hyperlink (should be just below the summit button) and copy link location. In your message editor, click the IMG button and paste the link you copied. You can also paste directly and add the IMG tags

    Great photos also!

    Wicklow Head. I genuinely didn't realise at the time but we weren't supposed to go so close to the lighthouse as it's private property so will never get the opportunity again I don't think.

    Took a few attempts till I realised I wasn't compressing the photos right. Hopefully you can see them now...

    Halfords Coolock this evening. This is by far the cleanest Rd I've ever seen, ab absolute credit to the owner.

    Holy hell that's stunning

    Yeah that’s an absolute stunner. Have seen it around there before


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,280 ✭✭✭Garzard


    If this counts, certainly not from today or the day before(!) but I just stumbled upon this old photo on my phone, a day trip to Powerscourt in 1997 I think, would have only been about 4yrs old at the time but I still remember that roasting day with very fond memories. The Opel Kadett even showed up on Cartell when I checked.

    Long shot, but don't suppose anyone can identify the car on the bottom right corner with the boot sticking out?

    I was thinking it's some sort of Peugeot saloon but the light cluster doesn't match with the 505 as my first guess.

    Possibly an FSO Polonez?


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,937 ✭✭✭SmartinMartin


    I dunno, there's something very 80s BMW about that.

    What a beaut! I I think the owner may be local, I have seen someone working on two RD in their garden not too far away. I had a 125 LC and 350 YPVS myself. I remember when the 250/350 came out, Motor Cycle News (the biggest UK biking weekly) tested the 250, the headline, on the front page, simply stated 106 MPH! Context is that at the time, UK learners were limited to 250cc and this was the first one to crack the ton. However, no other mag got it to do that.

    Sorry to waffle on about bikes here! SmartinMartin, did you post that in the bike section, they would love to see it i'm sure.

    It seems to be an original RS2000 too. Pity about the long reg though.

    Edit: and I forgot, 2 W201 190's in on the prom in Bray !

    I've been in Streedagh since Thursday. Up and down to Mullaghmore and Bundoran a few times over the weekend and I've seen nothing bar a yellow Capri while i was driving around the N15 roundabout so couldn't get a pic. You're trolling me at this stage. :P
