That green one might a Cadillac or Lincoln?

PrettyBoy · 18-02-2016 1:28am

Another (less subtle) RS6

Lambo LP640 (sorry about the quality)

Not that I've found.
Been trying to ID for a while. Haven't found anything quite as ugly, so far.

AndyBoBandy · 18-02-2016 3:31pm

Saw this today (apologies for the quality as it's from a dash cam).

Mk1 escort??

Duke O Smiley · 18-02-2016 3:36pm

Indeed!

Looks like you're in me and fancy pigeon's territory too!

My guess is a Plymouth

bear1 · 18-02-2016 9:52pm

Ok so I did a bit more digging and it's a 1958 Dodge Sierra

I thought the current Lord Mayor of Dublin was a shinner who vowed she wouldn't take a new car to go with the "average wage" they all promise they take but don't.

Her promise was dumb and ignorant. Her role requires a company car(which is probably subsidised by Volvo), it's that simple.

The promise was probably in line with "only drawing the avg wage(*)" spiel from SF

(*) ie t&cs apply as we will claim the difference back in expenses

Surely something Soviet anyway.

Most of these had Hyundai 1.7L Diesel Engines back in 2015.

This one supposedly had a 1.5 diesel from an old Fiat!

http://www.thejournal.ie/lord-mayor-car-clamped-2203764-Jul2015/ A spokesperson for Dublin City Council later confirmed that the car is used to transport the Lord Mayor of Dublin to and from her appointments.

it dosnt read like she took the car for herself as a perk at all . reads like she gets to sit in the back seat and is likely driven by a council driver.

and every SF TD and Cclr I know takes home the average industrial wage around 42k ish. a lot goes towards running local grass roots offices which are the envy of every single party out there. as well as some more going towards very expensive election costs .

i have a lot of time for our current mayor, havnt seen her put a foot wrong yet in her defense , she is representing myself and a million other highly strung dubs:)

Aye, coming out of the McDonalds in Coolock where Woodies/Halfords is

MisterDrak · 19-02-2016 11:00am

All 3 had California plates on.

For now as promised, on the way to work this morning....

Duke O Smiley · 19-02-2016 4:32pm

Same guy so!

fancy pigeon · 19-02-2016 5:07pm

I may look out for that!

Actually, I must keep a look out for interesting cars in that park.... Sometimes a blue WRX (?) does be there. Ever see the grey Chrysler 300C on what I think are 22s....?

Ah yes I'm sure I've seen that Chrysler. ZU (not ZV) reg Volvo Amazon is sometimes in the same carpark as the Escorts

There are some very very interesting things around there. A certain elderly prancing horse springs to mind and not one from one of the fields up the road

Saw a nice red 161-D Mustang yesterday parked up off the Walkinstown Roundabout. Had a look at it. It looks nice, but I'm not loving the back of it.

I wonder how many mustangs have been sold in Ireland so far.
Seems to be quite a few going around.

Jude13 · 21-02-2016 8:40am

The LC is a 1977 with little mileage, a dream car for me.

That's the 722 Edition, nice to see it's still being used in such miserable weather. The guy that owns it also bought this last year :cool:

Not sure, although I remember someone previously saying that out of the 20 odd ordered 1 was the 5.0.

Ah so 20 ordered and as of now 5 have taken delivery?
I bet ford Ireland were amazed they even got past a single order

€951 motor tax on her, he must have it registered private and not crew cab.

Special Circumstances · 23-02-2016 9:29pm

I rarely post pics but I'll make an exception to my laziness for a Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat.
700bhp, under $70k, what would that get you here - 2.0 defeat mode DERV Audi S5

:mad::(?

Special Circumstances · 23-02-2016 9:44pm

That last post may have caused palpitations for all the CO2 haters on here.
Here's something to calm you all down....

Priussss, priussss everywhere. I'd say they get good regen on the hills in SF!

AutoMan79 · 23-02-2016 10:30pm

Seen this beauty today afternoon. Its absolutely masterpiece...

Special Circumstances · 24-02-2016 12:12am

Just saw a silver haired old lady driving a Dodge Ram 2500. Cos who doesn't need a 5.7L petrol V8 for going to bingo and mass?

Ant695 · 24-02-2016 6:57pm
