Lemme guess, BMW Ireland employees?

Seth Brundle · 01-06-2005 10:02AM

It is an event for those who have already bought, are about to buy or write for a newspaper [and for the riff raff like me who can't afford one but want to watch].
BMW Irl have brought over a number of drivers from Rockingham to show these folk how the M5 handles.

ciarsd · 01-06-2005 12:01PM

superb! was watchin a kit car programme on digital last night and it featured Rockingham and an M3 doing what it does best

qz · 01-06-2005 06:39PM

3 BMW M3's
Ferrari of some sort
Bentley Continental
Aston Martin DB9

2 Audi A8 LWB and a Continental GT. Actually, has anyone noticed that the GTs never have normal font on their regs

The ones I've seen have regular plates. DB9 plates look weird though.

Squirrel · 01-06-2005 10:47PM

The ones I've seen have the font usually seen on cars from Donegal, you know the smaller bold type font

qz · 01-06-2005 10:49PM

The font's definatley bold, and it looks like a sticker rather than a normal (metal?) plate.

sharkman · 02-06-2005 05:02PM

And today I saw a VW Phateon

And a Maserati Quatroporte :

fletch · 02-06-2005 05:05PM

Seen a few of those Masserati's about....Phaeton is impressively big in real life ain't it.

sharkman · 02-06-2005 05:08PM

Its bloody enormous .

MercMad · 03-06-2005 10:51AM

Out my way I regularly see a '04 DB9 and a '05 one. The guy with the '04 swapped his SL55 AMG for the Aston and said he is dissapointed with it. The interior and exterior are beautiful and very exclusive but the car doesn't feel as fast and doesn't handle anywhere near the SL !!

If only I had that type of disspointment !!!

Also one guy just swapped his Cayenne Turbo for a new 911 Carrera, black one...looks fab !

The AMG Mercs can be ordered through any dealership just like a regular Merc !

I'm not a fan of Jaguars, but a new XK8 and an XJ parked side by side, both black looked amazing !

I think I saw that '05 Ferrari during the week, nice but I'll take the 911 any day !

Saw that stretched Hummer too, foolish looking thing ! I wouldn't be caught dead in one !

Saw a lovely Range Rover Sport, the new one, in that Orange metallic colour, looks fantastic and definitely went on my shopping list !

Any nice Classics spotted ?

Kersh · 03-06-2005 02:21PM

Ah, that testarossa in the Mondello museum burned its clutch out doing 5 laps of the track 3 weeks ago, . It only has 1076 miles on it. Clean too, its a 1990, i was thinking of buying it off him as its for sale, but the mileage is a bit low.

Gatster · 07-06-2005 11:15AM

Slightly older but still nice and with the proper engine, a DB7 Vantage...

mike65 · 07-06-2005 05:16PM

I saw something gold on the N25 today near Yougal. I dunno what it was but it was new and looked VERY expensive - it was a 2 door coupe very swept back design with 2 round headlights.

lomb, surely you are exempt from speed limits and parking fines, if you are wwealthy enough to drive an Aston Martin!

qz · 09-06-2005 10:41PM

Yeah I saw it about two weeks ago. There was a Dodge Charger there a couple of months ago too. Black. Delish.
