Re: Seen a Mini?

Re: Seen a Mini?
I do seen that one quiet often, it does be parked in the Avoca shop carpark in Rathcoole most days. It must be someone that works in there.DaveC wrote:Orange 81 D Mini with a black roof and bonnet stripes on 13 inch Superlites, at the Spar shop at the Glenageary roundabout at around 6pm this evening

Re: Seen a Mini?
Passed through Enniscorthy heading to New Ross at 9am this morning.
There was a black Cork reg Mini parked at the side of the first garage on the lhs on the way into Enniscorthy.
Was travelling back to Dublin around 11.30am and it was still there, but had been joined by a Mini 25 with a ZR reg.
