Is that not just a 'JDM' tilt mechanism mounted on the black plate holder?

Yes it is indeed. Some spot. Way nicer than the last garage.

They also don’t accept trade-ins that are over 5 yrs old, so the 100+ used cars outside even made for a nice spread.

This car recently won Rally Legends. The chassis was shortened and the welds were visible. I think it was something to do with competition limits/restrictions. The owner was there too to answer any questions. It's taxed and road legal too!!

It joined us briefly on TED Run II, it has presence parked but when it's alive and on the move it's unbelievable. Tristan was it Audi Ireland or the Connollys that got it to Galway?
