Saw a Fiat 128 (on Italian plates, I think) parked outside the Clarence Hotel in Sligo today.

Looked pretty clean but I hadn't my phone on me to get a pic. I'd say it will be there for the weekend if anyone is passing

EDIT: They don't place much value on the BMW's!

Must show the pic of the Isetta to the old man, he had one as his first car and he sold it for a pittance!

spotted in sligo ( strandhill road )

nice early capri .......

Slidey · 01-08-2010 11:22am

The Neal Egan run is on today so that Capri will more than likely be there along with many others.

Was a massive turn out last year and a scorcher of a day. Will head down the camera and take a few snaps today

Kasper, this was no museum - it is a car showrooms for a company who just happen to only sell "classics" and super-cars etc., hence the price quoted on each photo caption.

Just a few snaps from the Roberts Cove Vintage Festival. This was the 3rd running of what is now an annual event and it has grown hugely. This year there was about 40cars and about 70 tractors. Only got a few snaps because the camera was on the blink.

Not quite 'today', more like eight months ago, but here it is anyway: 1913 Cork-registered Model T Runabout in Abernethy's Midelton.

Max_Damage · 10-08-2010 8:01pm

Spotted these today...

Mercedes 280SE in Walkinstown (owned by the same guy who use to have the white Fiat 131 a few years ago):

Triumph Toledo beside my friend's garage just of the Walkinstown roundabout on the Greenhills Road:

'88 Toyota Starlet (same location):

'89 Peugeot 205 GTi (again, same location):

Do-more · 10-08-2010 9:49pm

I posted these earlier on the Motors HWIST thread but they are probably better here.

Don't know for sure but I think the Cobra is genuine, it was on German plates and the Bonneville had a Florida plate.

I'm living in Sweden now and there is a lot of old yank metal here which comes out in the summer months and a few Volvo Amazons of course! Will see if I can get a few more pics to post here.

Savage car but I doubt it's a real GT350 Hertz - would only travel to shows on a trailer if it was!

Nice Roller at the top of the Spanish Steps

Another Beetle
