wild atlantic way...
Post by Turbomick1985 » Sat May 16, 2015 9:17 pm
So i just gor back from ireland a week ago and me and my girlfriend where there for 10 days traveliing along the west coast, im so sorry i didnt drive the prelude over because i would have had so much fun, however herself decided we would rent a thing and drive that about instead, i ended up with a brand new opel astra diesel 1.7 that had 8KM on the clock when i got it, it was the most depressing thing ive ever had the misfortune of driving, i drove the absolute bag out of it but it was still a gutless pile of meh.
the wild atlantic way has some awesome driving roads i didnt even know ireland had, from corkscrew hill in galway to the conor pass in kerry and basically the whole coastel road from mayo down to west cork was brilliant 100kmh (60mph) twisty windy roads, im going again next year and i will take the prelude.
basically guys if youve got a week off get in yourr car and head over and start in mayo and head for west cork and stay over in a few places along the way,
the craic is mighty!

It's a good job they put the cone and that little stop sign there, otherwise you might not notice there was a problem...
