Irish Mini Owners Club

Does anyone here own the metalic orange Mini I see parked in Monkstown most days ??

That is the 94 D reg one?
I have seen it there, and have seen a young lady driving it in Dun Laoghaire

Spotted a very tidy Clubman on the bridge in Carrick-on-Shannon this evening.

Yep, thats the one.

Blue sportspack broken down in the bus lane on the N11 at RTE, last night in the pissing rain. Couldnt get a reg because they had no lights on.

I didnt stop because they were getting help from somebody in a van

saw a navy/strange shade of blue sportspack with black/white stripes on the limerick galway road on sunday afternoon, driven by a man wearing shady sunglasses... but it was raining...
another black with plain white stripes not long after driven by a young blonde girl
and then a blue cooper 97-ww- something something parked outside the theatre royal in mayo for the evening 3 or 4 cars away from me... i presume they were at the ray lamontagne/gemma hayes gig.. my only reason for trekking up to mayo!

I met a BRG Mini on the back roads close to Hollywood (Wicklow NOT California!!) this afternoon.
I think it was a 1991 model.

We both flashed at each other.........ooh er matron!!

The Mini was well represented by Classic Car Club members from throughout the South East when they attended the Fenagh Steam Rally, at Fenagh, Co. Carlow today. On hand were Mini Salons, Van, Pick Up, Traveller and a Clubman sporting a 1.6 Honda power unit.

spotted the same car on saturday, very nice mini.

Followed a sweet little Mayfair this morning southbound on the N7, he turned off at Rathcoole

:wave

I go weeks without seeing anything and then ...

Spotted a racy looking ZV red with black last night, about 11pm zooming off the red cow towards the M50 tollbridge. Looked dreamlike in the hazy blanket of motorway lights.

Sounded dead mean tho

Spotted a kid being dropped off at the Maynooth BNS school in a 95-G Neon this morning.

Seen this after the AutoJumble in Blanchardstown shopping centre,


This always hanging around Shankill, an old lady drives it but I'v never talked to her. It's completely standard Sidewalk 1996 identicle to Goose's,


This was in Tesco in Ballybrack,


This was at the top of Ballybrack village turning right,


I just found these photo's on my phone, these were the big long straight you drive down to get to Hollyhead port in a field. We seen this Sportspack at the back of the house,




This Metro in the field accross the road from the house,






And then this jet beside the metro with a for sale sign on it!

Was walking up westland row earlier, and heard this thunderous roar coming up behind me, turned around expecting a huge big Kawasaki or something, and it was a lovely little 91 red cooper. Mister Kona (as he's known on MR)

Nicest sounding mini Ive heard in a long time

That Car started life as a Blue Mini 35. She bought it off my da and got it sprayed Burned Orange..... If i remember correctly it has a webasso roof..... The girl who owns it is called Jackie..... Really Really Nice Girl... Apparently she has put new wheels on it but haven't seen it yet so not sure what ones. Just she was trying to sell the 12 inch revos off it.
