Ask Jeremy Clarkeson about his one before getting the cheque book out.

Actually followed one from the airport a while back, driven by a girl:eek: who looked no older than 25. I have nothing more to add

I'd love to know how much they're for. ****, now is one of those times where I want to go out and work seven jobs at the same time.

Source? I thought there was just one in Ireland? And 20-odd more in the UK? Could be wrong.

Knowing Ireland probably about €170-180,000. In the states you can get them for about $150,000

Based on prices of "average" cars like corollas, Jettas, Maximas, Boxers, etc.
Take the USD price, x2 and replace the $ with an € and there you have it, €300,000

Must be the same one I saw twice yesterday around the Tyrrelstown/Blanchardstown area but I was convinced it had the blue stripes on it. You really could just drive over the top of it if you weren't looking it sits that low on the ground.

Jeremy Clarkson had more problems with it than it just breaking down constantlyt IIRC. Didn't he get stuck (literally!) somewhere in Central London and had to reverse all the way back out again, and then there's the problem of parking it in wide enough a a space that you can actually get in and out of it. I'd say if it doesn't work in London, there's no way in hell that it's a practical car in Dublin.

you could say the same for Hummer,ferrari,bentley etc all are not practical in Dublin,does'nt stop people buying them.

clarksons car suffered with alarm/imobilser problems it did not break down mechanically,anyway all is fixed now & he has the car back.

if you notice that car in the picture is a left hand drive,the 28 that came to the U.K where Right hand drive cars.:cool:

Mr Magnolia

Sorry, lads but the GT is one ugly car. (IMO)

MercMad

Lads I've been to Sport & Classic and seen this very car in the flesh, been in it and some other stuff also. Its an amazing car in the flesh and more practical than most !

This is a poxy picture, but Ford GT, Murcielago, and Ferrari in the same shot !
