Saw two separate DB9s and a Bentley Continental GT today.

Is it my imagination or are there way more exotic cars in Dublin than there were even a year ago?

It's not your imagination, there is way more money, and 'in your face' money at that, in Dublin now than even a year ago.

the monk and his stretch hummer in kilmainham on friday evening, complete with blue neons underneath

MikeHunt · 10-10-2005 12:17PM

reckon there'll be a good few sighting of that stretched Hummer in the next while... I saw him sitting in it's passenger seat on Saturday in Ballybough - looked like a kids birthday party had it

getting a good bit of publicity in the papers too... I'm sure he's chuffed.

Seen a smart roadster coupe earlier, not seen any in Ireland till now.
Was this the car mention above by someone who didnt know what it was he/she seen?
Pic is of the smart roadster & roadster coupe

EDIT: i dont think the coupe model is that bad really

qz · 10-10-2005 09:33PM

The Smarts look...... smart (I'll get my coat) in those pics. Saw a grey DB5 today around the Merrion Centre (D4). It was stuck in traffic so I got a good look at it, it was stunning.

qz · 13-10-2005 04:37PM

OK, didn't actually see this today, but the thread died.

Seth Brundle · 13-10-2005 09:24PM

I'll do my bit resurrecting it also qz!

Saw this the other day (was just too lazy to hook up the phone to the PC) in Blackrock

I didn't even see it until I was on my way out but I think it is a DB7 Vantage but Im sure others will correct me!

Saw this Navy Pontiac Firebird this morning at the M50/N4 but couldn't get a decent shot as he moved off then. Might see it tmrw though.

Not a great photo , but a photo none the less ....

rabbitinlights · 20-10-2005 03:00PM

Is that really enyas? My mum knows her quite well as she has a house near them in Galway, See if I can blag a go in it, but they are such a waste of money.

It wasn't today, but yesterday I saw a Delorean in Cabinteely, I was just after racing and was a bit out of it, and only noticed it in someone's drive as we were driving past. It was on the way from Cabinteely Park to the M50

unkel · 26-10-2005 03:34PM

Just now in Lucan village: Bentley Continental coupe . Brand spanking new, late 05D reg. Like this one:

How much would that set one back over here, €300k? :eek:

Its unreal how many people have these, its almost a joke. think of the other cars they could have been bought with the money they spent on this, its a terrible car for the money.

spartacus93 · 26-10-2005 05:01PM

Saw a Bentley Continental GT in Waterford yesterday. Not many flash cars down this side of the country, 04-D-6xxx . Looked pretty big, was surprised when I saw how fast it could go! How much does one of these cost? I had a look around but can't really find a proper answer, thanks.

ubu · 26-10-2005 08:08PM

Saw an rx7 just like this one, except without the rear spoiler in town today, looked well, my friend thought it was a ferrari!

jozi · 26-10-2005 09:22PM

Between today and yesterday,
3 BMW M3's, 2 coupe one convertable.
Love these cars and there seem to be quite a few around which is good cause that means ill be spoilt for choice in 10 years (if i can afford one by then)

qz · 26-10-2005 10:15PM

The Bentley Continental GTs are as common as muck. I saw 4 different ones in the same day. :rolleyes: They're all over the place.

Anyways, a 1991 Morgan, and a CL600 - the older style, still though...

MercMad · 27-10-2005 09:26AM

And look ...................you can clearly see the reg number of the Maybach in the reflection on Sharkmans bonnet !!! [/inspectorclouseau]

alias no.9 · 27-10-2005 09:43AM

Saw a 94D reg Ferrari 456GT being NCT tested in fonthill yesterday. I was hoping they'd make a mistake with the keys

Yeah it is, they were doing it up for Holloween. It was in some transport museum. That van was the one they used in that Showbands TV show with Kerry McFadden.

shayser · 06-11-2005 12:51AM

Was behind one of these today (not for long lol), looked like it should be fired from a rocket laucher. Was so low to the the ground i was looking down on it from my golf...

Noble M12 GTO 3R : 0-60 3.7s (quote: seriouswheels.com)
