Hopefully they will be parked right in front of all the pubs I plan on visiting. I will be driving a Toyota Yarvis! I think it has 65hp. I'm gonna miss my SVT.

I was supposed to head to Ireland during the last week of May, but since i lost my job i dont think its going to happen this year Anyway I hope you have an awesome time and dont forget to snap us some pics. Ohh yeah and I heard that the locals pee on the blarney stone at night when no ones around so when the tourists come to kiss it they get a little more than what they came for Mike \| 98 Silver CSVT

And if you are drivig a lot, try to have dinner in Kinsale. The food there is absolutely the best. And the Waterford factory was a cool tour too. And I heard the same rumor about the Blarney Stone. It is very scary up there at the top of the castle, but the views are terrific. As for Mondeos, they are everywhere. Just like here. If you are in Galway, check out this kid Ryan. He has the Mondy RS pictured below. He works at the rental car place behind the Ford dealership. And try to take some pics of the new MG ZT and MG TF!!! Aw frig it! Just take me with you!!!! 1998 E0 SVT #3128, T-Red 2001 Infiniti G20t 1974.5 MG B GT

That is if you like to do that sort of thing. All of my coworkers think I am crazy because I always check out the cars when I am over there. Been to Germany, England, Scotland, Ireland, France. They all have different types of cars. Oh, you will see a ton of Mondeo's!!!!! Enjoy Ed 1998.5 E1 SVT Contour #5482/6535
