    I've always wondered how Barney was able to steer that thing. It's not like he can lean into the corner.

    Test drive, or new owner? Or present owner keeping her greased up?

    Either way jackpot material.

    The car was up at €79,995 for a long time, I assume he just never bothered to update the text. Of, for that matter, to learn how to spell 'Maybach'.:)

    Well you wouldn't use 'Maybach' that much in every day language but you would come acrosss 'Or' and 'Of' fairly regularly and should know the difference! :p

    The only thing that spoils it for me is the colour.
    The 600 was powered by a 6.3 litre V8 250BHP M100 engine with single overhead camshaft specially developed to move the vechicle
    Must be one heavy car... :P

    Have to say I love the colour. Not keen on the red interior though.

    Doubt it was a test drive Saturday. Only one chap in the car I could see. He also looked at ease with one elbow out the window at some point. Can't see a test driver being so relaxed behind the wheel of that precious bus. :p

    Saw a group of Hillmans up on Fanad Head in Donegal today. Unfortunately no pics. There was an orange one on the run that was a real head turner.

    It's a Lancia Flaminia Coupé Pininfarina. The interior was spotless but not perfect which is nice to see. Some of these restored classics, you'd be afraid to sneeze near!

    Saw a ZV registered Ferrari Daytona (I assume in's genuine with a ZV reg but you'd never know) followed by an MGB roadster this morning just outside Milltown (in Kerry). I'm quite surprised by the exocitica that crops up here in this non-car friendly country from time to time.

    A gorgrous car! My dream garage consists of a 600 pullmann long wheel base. In black. With Liv Tyler driving me around in it when we're not busy ;)

    Spotted this very clean Westmeath reg. (BLI) Fiesta Mk1 earlier this morning in Mullingar town. I've seen it there a few times before, but this is the first time I got a photo of it. :)
