I saw that SLS being driven near Templeogue yesterday. It's putting on mileage all the time.

SHould the dealer have the benefit of the doubt that the 0km on the ad is an error?

I suppose, the ad was last updated 38 days ago

http://www.carzone.ie/search/Mercedes-Benz/SL-Class/SLS-AMG-/201116202113510/advert?channel=CARS

if it's updated with 0 miles then that's bad form...

That SLS is probably sold (no update on carzone), but if i know there is no new car with 0km on odometer. Every new car should has 10-20km - it's a factory test drive. Someone said that Seat was delete odometer to 0km - it's illegal. In Germany for deleting odometer is big fine and big problem and if i remember up to 3 years in prison.

Just on that point, my then new car had over 100km's on it after a day long testdrive. I decided to do a deal on it, arrived back the following week ready to pick up and it had 7km's on it..

Audi S and RS models are delivered with anywhere from 40-100km on them due to quality checks and road testing before delivery.

Re that SLS - i saw it been driven in Liffey Valley back in July. Its pic is in the monster HWIST thread. Search there for it.

I saw this in Sandyford last week. Not just a beast of a car, but probably rarer in ROI than a Ferrari/Lambo too!

Dundrum last Friday, according to cartell it's genuine, nevre seen one here before.

Ok It maybe a Hyundai but it is not a listed Hyundai for sale in Ireland although this is a Dealer Car from Limerick Motor Centre.

It is a 1.6 Petrol Hyundai Velostar as per Cartell.ie 11-D-36500





Here is what the press says it look like



It is nice......................for a Hyundai.

BTW The car in the picture is Left Hand Drive

A new black Citroen DS5 has arrived near to my house on UK plates, will get a snap next time I'm out.

Forgot to post - I saw a Nissan GTR there on friday, and I know a friend of the owner... No pics yet, but hopefully we'll see about that

Saw a new-style A5 with S-line kit in matte black with a clearcoat on it, looked absolutely mint.

Passed by me and was gone before I even got the phone out of the pocket

That's a Pinzgauer - serious off road machinery.

Austrian origin, but made under license in the UK I think now.

Amazing looking machines, and very rare.

V10 Touareg. Wanted one since I saw the 5th gear clip with the 747. Beast of an engine.

I hate that crap. Similar to the idiots I seem to see with Quattro & S4 badges on their 1.9 tdi 04 A4's.

Back wheels look a bit puny for a V10 TDi.

Didn't bother my hole taking a pic but saw a 2007 dodge ram imported.

As usual too big for the parking space at the red cow luas today

Jaysus visibility out the rear window looks like it could be a problem. Hard to be sure when they have a paisley shirt from c.1992 wrapped around it

Of course there is a window below the spoiler as there is now.

The new model also has the addition of a fancy new invention called a wiper, which isn't on the current model!
