Coal Harbour
Canada Palace area
Burrard Street
Seymour Street

Many good hotels around in that area, expensive shops and good restaurants.

Also Stanley Park. Mostly weekends.

This is probably the only Ferrari I'd buy if I had the money, I'd live out the rest of my days pulling up to every car meet with it bouncing on the limiter and a stupid 'I don't give a f**k' grin while everyone else turns their nose up at it.

The Japanese would have me die a happy man.

Weekends and whenever the sun shines (not often in Vancouver!).

Either that dof went for a wee on that Delorean or the rads leaking and coolant channeled to one side!

Some fantastic eye candy there though...

Lives in Ballina. Always parked on the hill as you go in to town of the Foxford road. Dark charcoal colour, right?

Cherrywood, South Dublin. First Sunday of each month.

Dartz · 26-04-2015 1:03am

Next Sunday's the next one. Will be taking the camera down again with a new roll of film to see what's there.

Does anyone know if there was a Volkswagen meet today (25/04)? I was passing through Thurles this morning and a lot of vintage Volkswagens, along with newer modified Volkswagens were passing through the town and all seemed to be going the one direction.

One really stood out - a red Volkswagen Transporter that seemed to be going for the "rat look" and had yellow tinted windows.

The Limerick VW show is on 24th May at Limerick racecourse. I might go for a look at the classic cars but I don't know if its worth going up if its just going to be a load of slammed polo's and golf's

or Felt spec Audis......

That meet up in Dublin had some fine specimens however.

Marcinek_55 · 26-04-2015 6:56pm

One of two events I visited today. American Car Show:

Marcinek_55 · 26-04-2015 6:57pm

Long Time Lurker · 26-04-2015 7:20pm

I was at that show in Kilbeggan too. The gems were gems but by and large it was like a celebration of rust, bodged repairs and poor cover ups. I've never seen so many junkers masquerading as show cars before at any show. There were sheds pumped with fillers, sealer and poor paint jobs everywhere. I was surprised actually as to the condition of the vehicles.

Marcinek_55 · 26-04-2015 7:56pm

^^ True but they still american legends - muscle cars and those trucks + GT40.

Now. The second event I was on today was Modified Live + IDC Round 1. Not many cars but few nice which cought my eye. I had nice neighborhood on the carpark - Honda NSX. Short chat to owner and he invited me to Cars & Coffee Limerick. I have to make it one day. Time for photos:
