Was over with a friend last night in their apartment for a few drinks. 2 minis down in their carpark.

Red 97 and a white 93

I think the red one is owned by Lucky_Jim on another forum, dont know if hes on here.

This is an article about the white one http://www.aanewsletter.ie/edition/16/article2.aspx

Saw a nice Mk3 Riey Elf in Courtown earlier.... ZV-5773....

Was part of the 'Garden Of Ireland Vintage Car Club' run... Apparently they are a new club set up and do lots of runs. There was also couple of Morris Minors couple of Anglia 105E's a couple of RR shadows, Merc SL's and a few other yokes. Looked like a nice selection.
