Spotted outside a garage in Toomevara (I think)

It's feck ugly. Why would anyone do this?

[CJ]

My eyes say nay but my brain says yay. Logic dicates that I should hate the colour combo but its got something of an elusive je ne sais quoi about it...

Isn't that the pig of a thing Dan was on about a few months ago?

@ CJ, you're cracked
By je ne sais quoi, I presume you mean revolting?

[CJ]

By je ne sais quoi, I presume you mean revolting?

By je ne sais quoi, I mean:

an intangible quality that adds or makes something attractive or alluring

It looks so wrong but feels so right. I think I'm finally loosing my marbles.

If it was all the same green colour, it might be ok.


You might be in luck CJ,
clicky!

Did I miss something? That's the same car.

[colm_mcm]

Yes but there's a phone number and price attached,

My EYES!!! They BURN!

I rung him a few months ago asking would he sell the alloys separately. He claimed he just paid €1100 (or something like that) for them, and they were more or less brand new. The only nice thing about the car IMO.

Is that the garage with the old rusty merc estates outside (that have been roting there since time began)?
Or is that in Moneygall I can never remember which is which

[Mustang]

Perhaps the previous owner had one of those VW polo colour concepts and wanted to relive the experience with an FTO. Remember these?

[gary d]

I remember those, what ever possesed VW, can't imagine they ever sold many! Used to see one around Belfast brave and often Aint seen it for years mind

[colm_mcm]

Those Polo were called the Harlequin model, VW originally intended to build 1000 of them, but demand was so strong, they built close to 4000 of them.


Yeah Mustang, it's that garage/scrapyard with the mercs.

[gary d]

There's no accounting for taste, eh

[Masa]

hehe, see that finally some french speaking has come herein

for the car isn't there one in the fast and furious with kinda the same pattern/colours?

[threediamonds]

yuck!! the stripe on the roof really finishes it off! How much they looking for it??

[Johnk]

Remember these?

Sure do, as there is 1 sitting outside in the yard

[colm_mcm]

No way John, never saw one in Ireland, well I've seen a couple of Polos with different coloured doors and bonnets, but not a proper harlequin. Is it yours?

[998cc-keith]

[Johnk]

Belongs to my Dad still bring it out the odd day nct and all may take a few pic's with the fto's on both side's. Gone a bit off topic here

[threediamonds]

passed this, em, garage today and the fto is gone! maybe the hulk crashed his car...this would be an ideal choice

[colm_mcm]

it's been replaced by a particularly sheddy looking Lancer though
