    There's 3 Topaz's in Castlebar (also within a mile or two radius) and I thought that was a bit much. :eek:
    Wait til everyone who doesn't use Topaz starts getting solicitors letters from [redacted].

    Read somewhere else that he is suing Carly Simon because he thinks that song is about him.

    Topaz I've been avoiding for a while. Today FM is easily avoidable except matt cooper is good. Took a while to wean myself off the crack cocaine of irish newspapers but their deification of z list celebrities and models and the constant degrading of grammar and spelling finally cured me. I have little doubt but irish water will be gift wrapped for [redacted] when the time is right.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,817 ✭✭✭✭Dord

    Likewise. I used to use the jetwash at that Texaco. I'll be avoiding that now its Topaz.

    Here is the old girl getting ready for the trip home on Saturday.
    Covered about 3000km in just over 12 days and she has another 2000km to go.
    Giving her a well deserved wash as she was covered in utter crap and dead flies.
    I think the black alloys and tint sets it off when it's clean.
    Surprised that I haven't seen any other Tourers here.

    Obviously didn't deserve a proper wash. Auto car washers :eek:

    Saw one of those Hondas owned by a polish lad either moving house in Ireland or quitting the country altogether - he had it parked up overnight with a jack under the towbar to give the car a break from the load he jammed in the back :pac:

    I've been following this thread for years admiring all your wonderful cars and pictures but I have never actually posted a picture of my own car. Here she is during her most dreaded trip of the week - in the supermarket carpark. Naturally she is isolated from the rest of the cars! :D

    @TruckerMal. That A4 is nice, it's a nice spec, good colour and wheel options and, plus, it makes a big change from the sea of Grey,Black and Silver Audis we see here...:D

    I love 95's, always wanted a set for the e60, settled on 93's which weren't a bad choice either!
