The pic took a while loading and I was expecting an 80s skoda coupe. I’m very underwhelmed

I went to buy a set of BFgoodrich tyres for a project Jeep. They were photographed on Vauxhall alloys. When I got there the wheels were still on the car. Long story short, I came home with with another project...

It's 2003.
I since picked up a couple of black lwb ones like your pic for spares. One of them is 2003 and the other is AP04 ***, registered August 2004.

Tip of the iceberg iirc....

An SUV shaped, climate killing iceberg that'll take my ship down too if I don't sort my sh1t out... So I'm told.

Nah, you're saving the planet, one jeep at a time lol, just without the long hair and sandals.

Come the next big depression (later this year if the pundits are to be believed), an old jeep that will run on veg oil will be in demand.

on what looks like banded rostyles

Think they’re standard 1600e ones, they were broader from memory. A lot had embellishers fitted so don’t realise.

was washing the car yesterday and a Mk4 Supra drove past. It was the model with the pop out roof too, but an NA Automatic by the sounds of things

I saw my first ever Z8 on the A1 a few weeks back near Newry. Such a cool looking car, but much smaller than I always thought.

I remember seeing the one that the Fultons furniture crew owned, absolutely amazing thing.

This is one of my grail spots because I know it exists and I've never seen one before. A Z1 and a Z8 both rank very highly as cars I'd like to lay eyes upon. Given how rare they are, I bet there aren't many with one owner from new at this point.

Lol, aye that’s it. I wasn’t going to give that much detail away.

Love it.

An elderly gent had a very early 90's fiesta that he kept absolutely immaculate in Ballyclare. I love people taking pride in whatever they have.
