Ireland irish meetup?

tpeachma · 6th April 2008, 23:50

Hi, anyone interested in a Leinster area meet up?

COB · 17th April 2008, 18:29

Hi tpeachma, I'll be over in Leinster in about 3 weeks time for a couple of weeks - it would be cool if there was any sort of meet on.

eldiablo · 17th April 2008, 18:38

Some w/e in May, although the bank holiday doesn't suit.

COB · 17th April 2008, 18:45

I'll be there between 14th May and 23rd May but I have a family do on 18th

eldiablo · 17th April 2008, 18:48

Suggest we wait til there's a few more, then pick a location? Unless it's just the 3 of us!

COB · 17th April 2008, 18:52

Sounds good. Have you ever taken your car round mondello?

eldiablo · 17th April 2008, 18:54

Believe it or not, I bought the demo model that was used in Mondello for promotional stuff. Seems well sorted.

COB · 17th April 2008, 18:58

cool, that should mean you have a nicely run in car, what's the track like?

tissot · 17th April 2008, 22:44

I didn't get to drive around Mondello, I just bought it cause it was the first 1.8 available in Ireland at the time and got a slight discount as it had 150km on the clock. The bad news is that at 9:10 this morning, a Tesco Ireland lorry driver decided having a black car meant he couldn't see me and decided to rub his truck against the driver's side of my car! Photo's of my damaged baby attached. Am fully comp so the problems in front of me are probably driving a Nissan Micra (A Jazz would be interesting) hire car for a few days and missing my own.

Now where did I put that neck brace?

COB · 18th April 2008, 18:14

Ouch that looks nasty - i take it he stopped and you got his details etc.

ReiToei · 18th April 2008, 20:54

Hey chaps, would definitely be up for a meetup sometime in May, as long as it isn't too far from Dublin/Dundalk

tissot · 18th April 2008, 22:18

ohhh..noh...but still ok your car still running.. last feb 2006 i have big crashed of my 2006 1.8 SE, on the left side was totally damaged and no good to fix it but good news it wasnt my fault the woman insurance give me brand new 2007 ES...im so happy after that happen...This week or next week im gonna show my new ice...see you next month lads..

Truck stopped, all details exchanged etc. I was stationary when it happened so the liability is all his. Keep an eye out for Tesco trucks! You never know, I might end up with Type R after all this. Not a chance. Will update here if necessary. Anyway, can possibly still make meet if and when location and date decided. Possible suggestion is the parking area at the top of Howth, north Dublin. Easy to get to and big enough to handle a fair few of us.

tpeachma · 19th April 2008, 20:51

Mid to end of May, or early June is good for me. Anywhere in Dublin or 50k of would be fine by me.

Ouch on that smash with the lorry.... Same colour and wheels as mine..

eldiablo · 21st April 2008, 11:19

End of May fine except 24th, early June a no-no as I'm on holidays til mid June. Oh and BTW, they gave me a Kia Rio hire car. If only it had tinted windows, I could hide my shame!

Don't be slagging the Rio! It won caravan tow car of the year award one year you know! My Mother has a free one for the last year to try out from KIA. I asked here why she liked it? She says "because it's free!"

COB · 21st April 2008, 12:25

Free, is the magic number

Rio isn't too bad... there are worse motors out there!

My partner has a 1.5 diesel Cerato. It's a pretty decent motor, nice bit of kick from the turbo. Her mum has a Picanto and her brother has a Pro Ceed, which is like an updated Cerato, much nicer though. Her dad has a Sorento too.

4 Kias!

You'd never guess they were best mates with the local Kia dealer!
