    I was in Dun Laoghaire multi story car park at the weekend, always a few classics parked up, some under cover.

    The first one looks like a Bristol to me, then a Mercedes SL I'd say, Next one might be a Porsche, not sure at all on the last one, looks Italian, maybe an Alfa?... and another SL, sneaky 928 in the background too

    /QUOTE]

    That Bristol is a 1951 401.
    Something really special.

    Liking the Mexico. :)

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.

    I'm currently in Malta on a little break and it's a car spotters dream. There is plenty of older '80's and '90's metal in daily use and the Japanese import city car oddball.

    Fair play.

    Based on the Opel Senator, just 461 made apparently from 1979-1989. Cant imagine many survived.

    Yeah I saw that while down a rabbit hole googling the company.

    It looks like they are still doing them too, including the Opel Adam and Mokka.

    Why would you spend money doing up a modern Opel ? Just buy a nicer car to begin with :confused:

    For years I saw a W126 parked outside the National Gallery every morning. I wonder if he's upgraded?!

    That belonged to the owner of the Lincoln Inn across the road as far as I know. I worked in the area for a few years, I would see him park the car on the double yellow outside the gallery and run across to the pub. How he never got a clamp I will never know. I am not there anymore so dont know if the other Merc is his.
