    not being smart with you but I suppose what I want to hire will probably depend on what they want me to pay

    in an ideal world...a ferrari (355, 360 or 308, 328) or a lambo (gallardo)..........highly highly unlikely I'm guessing or crazy money

    perhaps a 911...

    audi r8

    maybe just a swish BMW with an m badge on it (not just the badge:D)

    somethin fancy and sporty

    There is Ferrari hire in the lobby of the West County Hotel, Chapelizod. I thought it was a bit odd when I saw it... certainly unexpected..

    Yellow 348 in the car park.

    I was looking for something like this some time ago and this is the only company I could find in Ireland for a classic sports car type hire.
    Hope this helps.

    Some crowd handed me a leaflet at Terenure on Sunday, I asked him what the age limit was and he just took the leaflet back :L

    1978 911 3.0 SC

    I rented this for two days for my wedding back in May and enjoyed every second of it. I got it from http://www.heritagesportscars.com/ in Limerick. They were excellent to deal with and would highly recommend them.

    They have a Ferrari Mondial among others too.

    I will have to look it up later but i think it was about €400 but that included them collecting the car from a hotel in Limerick. Saved me having to worry about the car afterwards.

    I'll second heritagesportscars.com, based in Croagh, Co. Limerick.

    Rented a Triumph TR6 for my wedding midweek for €285.

    The dog bollocks of a car.

    I'll third http://www.heritagesportscars.com .

    We rented their 1960s Ford Zodiac for our wedding recently. How cool was that. It went down a storm..real quirky. €150 for the day. Nice to deal with.

    And we rented a similar car on our honeymoon in Vegas! bit more expensive there though.
