    That R8 has to have some serious mileage on it, it get's everywhere.

    It's great to see a car like that actually being driven all the same!


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,354 ✭✭✭cjmcork


    I see that R8 on a regular basis on the N11 (also saw the vantage one night last week on the N11 also) - pop pickers - Sunday evening is a nice night for a walk (to use a Terminator phrase!) if you fancy nice-car spotting on the n11 around Leopardstown direction.............

    on another note, and sorry I've no pic, but I was driving - saw a 10 D Porsche Panemera Turbo on the M50 about 8.30 this evening heading southbound..........gotta say, surprised at how not ugly it is in real life...

    It belongs to a neighbour of mine who's a builder, not a straight panel on it!

    The other side is worse, but I didn't want to let him see me taking a photo of it, he might get offended.

    It is a pickup BTW just has a load cover fitted.

    I kinda like that :o

    175K was probably his bonus that year.

    I think that most counties reserve the first 200 or 300 registrations for special order/purchase (i.e: they will normall start with 11-d-201). If that is the case here it would have been a special order.

    It seems that the quoted top speed is about 175mph

    Seen a 09 Irish Registered red Nissan GTR yesterday in Castleknock
    Did not get the chance to snap a pic.

    The rear was very mean with those 4 big exhaust pipes/tips.

    That's it

    It is possible, I am not 100% sure.
    The exhaust tips were neither black or with blueish ends like on those pics. They were sparkling silver.

    One of the sons of the owner of Dr. Quirkeys on O'Connell Street owned/owns one as far as I know, so that could be his.
