No problem finding it in a car park of silver cars!

Type 17

Hard to be sure with colour-balance on screens etc, but looks like code 504, English Red (Englischrot).

Spotted in Raheny this morning by by ten year old nephew. Posted here a few times before, but he was delighted to be able to show me photos And its great to see this thing in regular use

Arthur Daley

Yes it's lovely to see it. Right weather for it at the minute anyway.

I saw this at our local show Sunday. The driver gave it some welly heading up the hill after the show. My battery was flat. I'm raging I wasn't able to record it after wasting 3 mins filming a Lambo leaving.

posted this yesterday, as I'd seen it in Rathdrum (whilst doing the Wicklow 200) - lo and behold, here she is in Greystones early this morning!
Good to see it gets around

A Borgward, I think?



One of Tubbers' cars, I think? Nice ZV reg



This one just out of the storage, covered in dust

Duke O Smiley

Excellent finds woejus!

Borgward Isabella Coupe, very beautiful and rare.
Three lovely cars anyone would be proud to own one of them.
