Mike reporting in...
I had a small Peugeot, which was perfect. I spent a week on single lane roads. The smaller the car, the better.
Ireland: Lots of surprises for me. It is quite touristy, which I didn't expect. Dublin downtown is very charming. The country as a whole is immaculate. Quite a bit of personality, unlike the UK (sorry to any Scots or Brits here).
I drove about 1500 miles in a loose circle around the island, with some detours into the interior. The fjords on the western coast were my favorite areas. Lots of old country charm and few tourists. I'm glad I did the trip.
