One sad thing about those great Mondello pics is that there appears to be a eye hook in the front bumper almost predicting a crash in that lovely Reno!

It's for if you bury yourself into the run off areas. Easier to tractor a car out when it's already prepared. :P

Certain people actually buy ornamental/flashy ones and fit them for day to day driving, because race car!

Got my car cleaned. I know its pointless, but I could not look at it anymore. Went to same fella and he did fantastic job again. I could not recommend him more!

An absolutely amazing driving road, one of my favourites, especially on a motorbike.

I noticed the background in your pictures, it appears to be in Hungary. That's why I admired your car in Hungarian language.

Yeah it's a class bit of road alright, i was out on a fine Sunday, plenty of rental cars and Sunday drivers out so it was a leisurely spin, did a hoon with autostadt.ie lads out there before, it was a brilliant spin. You need to keep an eye out for sheep if pushing on though!

Where is it, Connemara?

Seeing as I had no Avensis for the week, I had to use alternative means to get around... No better car for the job, none of this tucked for the winter nonsense!





It'll be getting a colour change at some stage, I've finally settled on a colour and once my backlog of disasters begin to clear I'll have it painted in house, of course

It's the road from Louisburgh to Leanane, where Mayo meets Connemara.

Speaking of automatic Japanese cars being tucked away for the winter, here's my Corona being collected from my friend's shed before it was put into storage earlier in the year, resting now until I can get moved house and get some other storage. Needs some work done to her now but only 6 years left till vintage tax!

I don't know which is better the woman in the second pic or the car.

Time for a shameless post of my precious . Hard to believe I bought this car exactly two years ago today, don't know where the time has gone to really!

In honour of its second birthday, it's off to the garage this weekend to get new shocks all round, along with some new rear coil springs, so that will hopefully keep it happy for another while:pac::D!

MEGA BRO WOLF 5000

I assume the rear springs snapped!

Foxhole Norman

To those who were complaining about my car being too clean :pac: This was after ~1,000 miles in two weeks, back and forth to Clonakilty multiple times along with a trip to Galway















Still looking super rough due to the accident damage and miss matching doors, still waiting on insurance

Difficult to tell from a far away shot but the available image does look promising I agree! :cool::cool::cool:

Hmmm, just noticed your cars mirrors. Stand in front of the car and you'll see your Beemer doing this...



It's messing with you L.

I think I am developing a problem at this stage, this one is justified by my man logic that I can track it without fear of financial ruin if I crash...then I look at it and think it would be a sin to total it....its a beaut to drive too, very modern for an old car and a great sound and turn of pace without being mental and scary. Me likey

James Bond Junior

The way that car has been treated by it's previous owner would make it a shame to track and ruin.

Leonard Hofstadter

That car is far too clean to be used as a trackday car IMO. Lovely E46.

The engine in these needs to be tracked, the revs out of its, sure its what it was made for. I have other cars to wash and wax ....

Im planning on 8 full track days in 2019, it won't ruin the car once you service it accordingly

So about 10 euro then...I will risk it....:pac::pac::pac:

But no seriously, A baby seal gets clubbed to death every time a M cars is not driven like it should be, I have had offs in mondello in M5's and 911's and lived to tell the tale. A track car gets the best of everything.....

Buy a rough one and track that, wreck it and keep for a donor car. Win win.

I’ll club you to death if you track that m3.

A rusty 330i from England stripped to within an inch of its life would be the most suitable starting point surely.
