Datsuncog Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 AUCTION REPORT LINKS: If you're browsing this thread for the ver' first time and want to get straight into the meat 'n' potatoes, as it were, then here's the links to all the Nordie Shiters' Terrible Terrible Car Auction Event Write-ups, with Datsuncog as your ever-enthusiastic compere de merde. Wednesday 8th August 2018Wednesday 12th September 2018Wednesday 3rd October 2018Wednesday 5th December 2018Wednesday 16th January 2019 Wednesday 20 March 2019 SUPER SPECIAL INTERACTIVE EDITION Wednesday 29 May 2019 DAMP SQUIB M9 *************************************************** Righto, shite fans of Norn Iron, A suggestion has been put forth that a mini-meet of sorts could be arranged for those of us perched atop this enchanted rock, to strengthen bonds and ogle at terrible, terrible cars about to be inflicted on some other poor bugger. Venue is: Ballyclare Car Auctions, Dennison Industrial Estate, Ballyclare BT39 9EBhttp://ballyclarecarauction.co.uk/ Date is: Wednesday 8th August 2018, from 7pm onwardhttp://autoshite.com/calendar/event/52-northern-ireland-mini-meet-ballyclare-auctions/ Deep-fried items of varying degrees of danger are, apparently, available onsite for those who wish to test the strength of their stomach and other major organs. So pop along, in whatever vehicle you fancy, for a bit of craic and to participate in the ever-popular Crispiest Wheelarch Spotting Competition. I'll be there, I believe The_Equalizer will be there, and a few other expressions of interest have been indicated from local shiters. I may even be wearing my newly-arrived Autoshite t-shirt (courtesy of FilthyJohn) to aid recognition. Drop a line below if you reckon you fancy coming along!

That's one for the money, two for the show, three to get ready so go, cat, go... Looks like we got ourselves a meet-up... and I'll have your box of die-cast delights with me, unless a handover can be arranged before then.  So the next question is - whatcha reckon you're gonna be driving?

The_Equalizer Posted June 29, 2018 Share Posted June 29, 2018 How exciting. I'll be in my CLK with obligatory Merc rust circa 1998-2003 - it's the only thing with a MoT. I'll have to find someway of finding you two without looking like some oddball quizzing everyone there! Faker and Datsuncog 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Datsuncog Posted July 6, 2018 Author Share Posted July 6, 2018 THIS IS NOT A DRILL, PEOPLE!!! THERE IS A BEIGE WARTBURG KNIGHT IN THE MONKSTOWN AREA!!! REPEAT - NOT A DRILL! Looks like a fairly recent arrival and all... Apologies for fairly rubbish dashcam footage, but I was NOT expecting to encounter this while sauntering over to Abbeycentre to look for a yardbrush. Somewhere in the local vicinity is a person with a beige Wartburg. Let that sink in for a moment. If they're not on here- they really ought to be. Any ideas, fair Shiters of Ulster? somewhatfoolish, They_all_do_that_sir, Faker and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
