Walking along the streets of Sibenik Croatia, I came across a 5.0 liter GT. It seems mustangs are quite rare there. In all my time there, the below was the only one I saw.

...wifey and I go to the East coast of NC, SC and down to northern GA a
lot, especially over the summer.
It is AMAZING how many Mustangs I don't see.
And if there are any; they are s197, hardly any s550.

Go figure..................................:sunglasses:

@Tomster

Did it have headlight washers on it, what’s the little black buds in front of the headlights?

I looked at the pictures and wondered if anyone would notice - and then read your post ... lol

Pre facelift the euros got a lower rated headlight than the USDM. I believe they are a bit rubbish so some people uprate them, which then requires a washer jet to meet euro regs :like:

Hopping a jet to London now. I took a quick look at the photo i took. Are you referring to this?????

It looks like some kind of spray nozzle almost like windshield washer nozzles.

Nice pics Tom, thanks for posting. Will be cruising the Adriatic next Spring. Will be on the lookout for Mustangs.

Hanging this week in Bermuda. No mustangs here. :frown:

I'll bite, what is the logic of needing the washer simply because of a brighter light?

If you and your wife come to Wilmington, you will see plenty of Mustangs. I cannot count how many I see in a day.

Yes Tom, that little nub in the larger pic you have provided.

and to WD, if that is a washer nozzle, I'm not understanding how it works other than it spraying water onto the headlight? How does that satisfy the regulations there? I mean, the water just bounces off the headlight, there's no wiper or anything on it (like some Euro models).

You obviously don’t cruise through Myrtle Beach area during Mustang Week.

Your right, it does nothing other than spray water, but it also meets some dum euro regulation related to the wattage allowed without it.

I think the rule only applies to HID’s and LED’s are OK (which aligns with what I see on family cars I’m familiar with) :like:

You will enjoy it. It is drop dead beautiful. I always envisioned Croatia as some third world place and man was I surprised. What the French riviera and Italy are missing..... Croatia has it.

All the best in your travels.

I'll leave you with a few.....
