Very nice. You're right, proper old school. Modern stuff is all very whizz-bang-fancy but just feel bloated and remote to me, just don't appeal. I had an '86 HF 4x4 (pre-Integrale) for a while. When I drove it I always had the thrill that it was going to expensively explode but it never did! Do you have a photo?

Sorry for going off-topic, I am interested in an Eire trip. I went a few years back, over to the west coast, fantastic place. It rained.
