Re: Seen a Mini?
spotted a lovely little Hornet this evening on my way into work,
it was on the N11 northbound and turned off towards Enniskerry, reg no. LZU 7**
i slowed down to let him pass so i could take a photo of him going by but the camera wouldn't focus quick enough and all i got was a blur,
anyone on here own it?

Spotted this car myself yesterday on the N11 just before the Enniskerry Road.
It was flying along and had a nice rasp coming from the exhaust

Re: Seen a Mini?
I wonder if it was one of our ex-members Robert Bolton who had a rally prepared maroon Hornet. I often used to see him driving in that general area.

Re: Seen a Mini?
saw a nice blue sprite between kilmac and bray this evening and then a dark mini just at the goat grill, gave him a flash and he looked at me, but again, being in a white focus van you just get strange looks back
