    That's a stunner. Didn't Rory Gallagher have a thing for them, or was it Bristols he was into? No doubt some top brass knob owned that back in the day! :)

    It's a nice car but can someone point the guy in the direction of carandclassic so he can learn how to create an ad deserving of the car.

    I can never understand how someone can have such a nice car, high price and then turn out such a poor ad for it.

    I bet the ad costs him money and buyers

    Not sure I like it myself, but interesting. Would love a good look round it though. As Johnons said . . . Doing himself no favours.

    Don't think Rory could drive. He had the use of a Zephyr or Zodiac in the 60s as Transport and the song 'Souped up Ford' on the Against the grain album is apparently a tribute to it, though he mentions the car in the song is front wheel drive.

    Rory could drive, he had a Ford Escort which rotted away outside his mothers house, he would'nt sell it because Muddy Waters once sat in it.

    €5K to swan around in this!
    Would love to have one of these for a year or so and move it on.

    I just googled the tank size and got 108 litres. At €1.60 a litre, that's €172 to fill it!
    I'd love an old convertable Rolls, but they're fairly pricey.

    Ode To The Motorist

    “And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, generates funds to the exchequer. You don't want to acknowledge that as truth because, deep down in places you don't talk about at the Green Party, you want me on that road, you need me on that road. We use words like freedom, enjoyment, sport and community. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent instilling those values in our families and loved ones. You use them as a punch line. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the tax revenue and the very freedom to spend it that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise I suggest you pick up a bus pass and get the ********* ********* off the road”

    There's a nice reprint of an article on Rory and his cars in "Reeling in the Gears" that cam out last year. Seems he could drive, the Muddy Waters car was a 6 cyl Ford Executive, that both Waters and Jerry Lee Lewis sat in. he says the car was "dying day-by-day in his mothers garage" and that was around 1993 so I wonder what happened to the car?

    He is pictured beside what looks like a Bristol 410 reg XYX 96 G, I can scan the article in this evening and post it up if the mods are happy on the copyright.



    Anyway, haven't seen one of these for a while, pre 87 plate makes it rare but it seems well overpriced at €3,000?

    Looking at the picture of the wheel, the word 'immaculate' comes to mind.

    Yeah, they would go forever and were a very comfortable motor. Mind you like many big engines and its only 2 litre , they ain't selling too well at the moment , probably lucky to get 20 mpg I suppose :D

    I hate to be awkward lads, but i'm seeing no air conditioning, peeling lacquer on the wood, no fewer than three holes drilled in the dash/console, and a nasty aftermarket stereo. And as for the pic of the wheel, i'm seeing a cheapish tyre that to me doesn't instil confidence in the owner's willingness to spend money on the car. Just sayin'. :)

    As the man said, sold now and the phone hasn't stopped ringing since the ad went up. She's off to Derry on a trailer with her new owner who will pay just £220 (sterling) to tax her.
    I had loads of enquiries from the UK and now I see why!

    It is a lovely car and I had some great years with it, but the 928 is a real hoot to drive and I'm very priveleged to also have the stag for the fine weather, so that and the extortionate road tax led me to move her on.

    I probably priced it a bit low judging by the phone calls, but after five years the car owes me nothing and it's gone to a very good home so well wear Kevin.

    Mark.

    No sooner sold than being sold on for twice the price
