Yeah I went to my first one this month. First Tuesday of every month in Carrickmines. Really enjoyed it. Think there was 4 mkvs there including a 5 door tornado red 300bhp + monster!

I've moved to Galway midweek so I don't think I'll ever make one now! Is there not one that takes place on a Saturday morning also?

I'm not sure man.  There is cars and coffee at cherrywood the first sunday of every month from around 10:30 onwards.  Its not an autostadt event but the turn out is massive. Some seriously cool cars  lambos, ferraris, m cars, merc amg's, rs4's  etc. etc.  I have vcds too now by the way if you need any scans or coding done.  enabled cornering fogs and alarm chirp on mine.  just need someone to stand in front of the car as i go around a corner now to see if they work!

I never drive with my fogs on because I think they look out of place with the xenon lights. How much and where did you get VCDS? I'm still considering it...

Hopefully come next payday ill be able to tackle some of the smaller cosmetic mods too!
