Moon Car

The Moon Car was a converted 1919 Rolls Royce Silver Ghost, used by the Irish Republican Army (IRA) in and around the area of Cork. It got the name 'Moon Car' because of its bright yellow colour and because it was mainly used at night. It is most well-known for its attack on the British port of Spike Island on 21 March 1924, which killed one British soldier and injured 23 others, including five civilians.
