Another good day. Spotted a 94-D- Black with White roof Cooper going into work, driven by a slightly older man, followed by spotting a Blue Cooper/Sportspack 00-D-116nn driven by a young woman ( much younger) along the Grand canal, Then, Buddys Mini parked in the usual spot ( if you left the handbrake off , I could park beside you and save a few bob on Parking fees). On the way back, I spotted a Metallic Blue Sportspack ( probably) up one of the small roads off the the canal.

I think so. There is a Tom Stafford ( I think) place on the Northside of the bridge just up from it.

Met friends in Avoca, Rathcoole for lunch this afternoon. Parked just inside the gate was a 1981 D **** orangey red Mini with a black roof.

Planned to have a closer look at it & take a few pics on the way out.

Turned out it is owned by the (Italian) waiter that was serving us.
Spotted him getting into it And driving off and so I asked a waitress!!

I saw a 04 MH registered red/white roof Cooper on the Stillorgan road near UCD this morning. I was going the opposite way but it looked well.

Anyone know of this car?
How come its a 2004 reg?
