1998 D2 PF S8. Agate Grey/Platinum. Every option (I think) except electric rear seats, Tiptronic steering wheel, ski hatch, towbar & dimming door mirrors.
e.g. Cruise control, NavPlus/TV, Bose, GSM, Xenons, Solar roof, Parking sensors, Alcantara/leather everywhere of course. (internal dimming mirror added later)
1998 (very early) Ford Focus 1.8 Zetec; ABS/TCS, Heated screen/mirrors, Aircon. Added Auto-dim mirror, Leather seats, Trip computer, Cruise control, OEM Ford SatNav with CD changer.
And before that a lot of Rover 800s, a few oddities, a lovely Triumph Dolomite 1850HL with Overdrive and way back in my schooldays an Austin Seven aka Mini 850!

Thanks, Ron. We can all blame Nick for not being awake/observant.

Whoops! Well at least you were awake. 9:30's a bit early for me. Please accept my apologies for my gaffe

BTW The castle are default booking 3 nights. Fri, Sat & Sun. Am I correct in understanding that for those of us aiming to continue the festivities in Ireland, it should be Fri, Sat only. With departure to Ireland on Sunday?

That's Correct Nick.

All; please make clear which nights you are staying.

Those going to Ireland, the boat leaves mid afternoon Sunday.
