David Brown enthusiasts all over the island of Ireland can link up using this forum to openly communicate about their David Browns; share their experiences and support
each other during the restoration process.
Members can use this forum to source and advertise parts for sale and it is hoped
that this website will act as a gateway for devotees to collaborate and help develop
a wider interest in David Browns in Ireland.
The David Brown Ireland website forum was set up in 2013 by Kilkenny/Dublin based Alan Hughes with the invaluable support of Neville Porter in Northern Ireland. Having spent the previous two years restoring a David Brown 990 Implematic and as a regular visitor to the UK David Brown Tractor Forum, Alan identified it would be hugely beneficial for Irish only enthusiasts to have their own ‘localised’ forum. Who knows, maybe there’s a David Brown enthusiast just down the road from you. David Brown Ireland is keen for any feedback and ideas that would help make this website forum better for its members and more successful – do let us know what you think!

This knackered car, which has spent the past 40 years rusting away in a barn, is a 1959 Morris Mini Minor Saloon – the 15th oldest-surviving Mini in the world
The car, which was the 529th of its type ever built, comes with its original engine and has just under 47,000 miles on the clock.
British Motor Corporation (BMC) marketed the car as the ‘Austin Se7en’ and ‘Morris Mini Minor’ before ‘Mini’ became a marque name in its own right in 1969.
Two years ago, the eighth oldest-surviving Mini was sold for £40,000 at auction.
This car will be sold by Bonhams next month and experts believe it will be an extremely popular item with Mini enthusiasts looking for a restoration project.
Rob Hubbard, senior specialist at the Bonhams motor car department, said: ‘It is one of the oldest surviving Mini cars and that in itself makes this one special.
‘It was put into the barn after a minor prang and has been there ever since.
‘The owner’s children finally got round to sorting out the old barn and found this.
‘It is a nice, original example, with a proper engine.
‘The car will appeal to somebody who fancies a bit of a challenge and who is looking for a good restoration project to get involved with.
‘It represents a wonderful opportunity to acquire an example of one of the 20th century’s greatest cars in its earliest and and purest form.
‘In its day, the Mini was a trendsetter and it revolutionised the motoring industry in Great Britain in the 1960s.
‘Even today, over 50 years later, people are still obsessed by the cars.’
The 1959 Morris Mini will be auctioned by Bonhams at Oxford on March 2.
