I didn't see. I had to look twice to make sure it was blue :shock:
I caught a glimpse just as it went by.

It looked like it hadn't been washed in months. The dirt build up was noticeable. I was just a bit disappointed, as I hadn't seen or heard of other icelle blues on irish roads. However, mine turns to purple in strong sunlight, so it's not quite the same :wink:

I posted a picture of it ages ago when it was on say to laugh at the price it was more of a purple colour than blue if I remember correctly.
I seen one Icelle blue one flying around cork, but haven't seen it in ages.
Keep seeing that bumble bee one though.

I did text him to say that it was a nice icelle blue GR, of which I am aware of only 2 in that colour....but mentioned that I had the Mivec one :)

I said I saw him driving it on Tuesday, so there goes the weekend driving claim.

I see. Thanks for that. Why would the owner have it listed as a GR then? You'd think he would know. And why do I want to buy it? :mrgreen: but I won't. No way. Maybe if the price went to 1k I'd take it. The 99GX my brother has ended up being €950 in the end and that's with Quad exhausts....but the mileage would be higher (assuming no clicking has occurred).

Because it is easier to insure as a GR on the insurers system

I notice the seller has bumped his ad and changed it a bit. Notable to me is the part where is said "only driven weekends" has been changed to "mainly driven weekends", since i mentioned I saw him driving on a Tuesday. Tempted to lob in an offer, as it does look nice and it is a manual and the mileage is probably genuine. But the owner wouldn't be happy with me offering 1k would he? Even at that, i'd be scraping the cash together. I'm too addicted to these bloody cars.
