    Spotted this old Corsa on the South Circular Rd one evening a while back. Looked immaculate and was being driven by a careful older fella. Not many of these floating about anymore but I always liked them.

    I've also spotted both Duke O Smiley's Tipo and fancy pidgeon's Merc around my local Coolock area over the last few weeks. HI! :P

    Wow great spot [Corsa]. I love the wide rear arches on the three door models. 93 is fairly late for a "nova" shape too.

    Speaking of the Tipo...I have it six months today. Have only just done 2.5k miles..
