A medium or large (by European standards) saloon (that's a sedan, for you West Pondians) car with the absolute base level of equipment and trim. Purchased because having a crap larger car is supposedly better than having a well equipped but slightly smaller car. During the 1980s and 1990s major car brands actually produced special de-contented models for the Irish market, due to the very high taxes on cars and the poverty of the country at the time, but Paddy Spec is a 21st century phenomenon by people who should know, and can afford, better. The epitome of Paddy Spec is a base model Toyota Avensis diesel owned by a farmer.
