Seen it twice before, once driving down park gate st and once in Ashtown parked across from Superquinn, there was nobody in it the second time...but there was a full grown boxer dog sitting on the passanger seat, all I could think was "How much money does this fella have!"

Lots, he's got a Murcielago too :pac:

XKR 4.2 V8 Supercharged. The oul snow nearly caught me out.. Try explaining that to the insurance company - Sorry, i thought the accelerator was the brake and i mashed it into the floor..

Pissing quattraporte drove past me today as I day dreamed out a hotel window. No time to get the camera. Beautiful car. I drove one in Italy, I want to drive one around Galway and pick up wimminz.

Check this out. It is something I saw today, not only 10 minutes ago. I had my car in Cyrstal clean in Galway today(there are 3 so nobody will know which one it was) for a wash & wax. I got back to the hotel to upload a picture for my Fiancee of the hotel and found this. Cheeky monkey. Manager was not too happy when I rang him mobile. E-mailed him normal picture.

Just seen a Ferrari F430 drive up Fitzwilliam place! Northern reg, black with gold wheels and 2 grey stripes running the lenght of the car (Scuderia?).

Much like this one:

Yeah, it was a Scuderia! I saw it today aswell, He gunned it away from the lights on baggot street and the roar off it was amazing.



It's the John Player Special F1 car colours!

I saw two new cars today, and they are probably the two i least expected to see.

A 09 Black Toyota Landcruiser Amazon, talk about road presence.

A 09 L Honda Accord new shape. In red, looked very well.

No pics i'm afraid, althought the Amazon at a house on the roundabout on the far side of the Ennis-to Ennistimon by pass.

Cionád

Twas an icy morning a few weeks ago, but apt for today & tomorrows conditions, slow down for the corners!!!

Big Nasty

Ouch! Where was that? :eek:

On the Dunboyne-Leixlip road (the tight corner as you arrive at the junction where Confey GAA is)

The civic is in there as it is unbelievably fast! it would give the other two a run for their money on the track (no sh*t! 280 bhp, completely stripped out and massive brakes!) but yea, i'd rather have the Ferrari too!

I like the CTR's but I can't imagine one with some mods would dream of keeping up with a 430?!

Im not joking, it weighs about three feathers! There was a seat, and a roll cage in the car, thats it! and I would say that round Kirkistown (the track), it could at least keep up! Maybe its just a lunatic driving it but he had skill (nice guy from Meath too!)

Ok. I was getting a wash and wax on my car in Crystal Valet in one of their Galway places. I wont say which one.

Anyway I get back to the car and the radio has been retuned. Station 1,2 & 3 have been replaced with some Galway radio station. All my air vents are closed for some reason.

I get back to the hotel this afternoon and decided to take a picture of the hotel room and e-mail to "the missus" when I found that photo that one valeter took of the other on my digital camera which was in the arm rest compartment.

So the fvckers were obviously riffling through the contents of my car instead of cleaning it. They were only supposed to be cleaning the outside.

So Im clearly unhappy and on the thread title "here's what I saw today". I did see it today and its sort of car related because it relates to a car.

That Sagaris is one of my "10 Dream Cars Garage"

That's the same one that was at Top Gear, doubtful that there is another one in Ireland.
