That's the best car and engine ever made? Better than any Ferrari V12 ever? I think you mean best built.

I applaud your taste sir.

On topic. No pic as I was driving, but I saw a slammed k11 micra on the m50/n7 interchange yesterday. When I say slammed, I mean, abso-fkn-lutely slammed. On stretched gold bbs alloys.

The worst part, I thought it looked cool.

Is that the one from Bill Griffin motors,

I was told so.

I've seen that around these parts (n7) a few times the past week. I'd say the sales lad takes it home with him. I sure as hell would .

There's an actual "scene" dedicated to slammed/stretched/modded K11s in the UK.

A scene I am very much a fan of.

That's unfortunate. The dealers son drives it often enough, wonder if it was him?

Where did you find the picture Marcin? Can't find it on FM104 FB or Twitter?

I pity anyone who buys a car from Bill Griffin.

I've no pity for anyone who buys an R8 (thats been in stock for 3 years) from them, i mean i don't think anyone in the market for an R8 is going to dump that kind of cash on his doorstep and if they do..

One of my friend comment this on facebook and it showed me this photo. This photo is on other man facebook without any link.

I don't know how Audi gearbox working but if it's the same as in Aventador it was probably the same problem: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bJFgG1nAFTY

I heard valet guy tried to do revs after he put gearbox on neutral (he thought he did it) and press acceleration pedal. I guess driver of Audi from Dublin did the same mistake.

I like the way the seller painted the building just to match the R8 :D

Spotted in the Coombe, nearly missed the tour I was going on because I was out ogling it had to get called in by the midwife .



Also spotted in traffic not as exotic and to be honest don't know to much about it but certainly not a car you see everyday in Ireland.

Think I saw that Aston the other day near the canal, I'll fire up pics later

eirlink

enjoy. looks stunning in the flesh, kept looking back at it as i walked away

Hal1

Looks like an improvement. They got the spacing of the head / tail lights spot on. It doesn't look gunner eyed anymore, no offence to anyone here who is gunner eyed :P.

Kaiser D

I love how the front end kinda looks like your sig eirlink!

:P

Was it a BMW open day?
I wonder how many of those M4s will they sell in Ireland.

indeed, two beauties.

New M4 looks very good minus the tail lights, and the the straight line across the front of the car where the bonnet and bumper meet. Anyone know if any of the dealers will have one in the showroom soon?
