Theres a 355 replica in Waterford, looks the real deal from a distance.

ongarite · 17-12-2006 11:29PM

I was behind a F355 in Ratoath this evening also. Can't say for sure if it was real or a MR2 kit job as it was dark and rainy but looked really nice anyways.

Fizman · 18-12-2006 01:26AM

I've seen that F355 replica parked up a lot in a house near Ballycummin village, Raheen(Limk). Looks very convincing even up close i must say

There was a cream trabant estate parked in Water St. in Cork this morning. Couldn't get a photo as I was driving, but it is the first time I have ever seen one in Ireland.

Wishbone Ash · 19-12-2006 11:05PM

A Ferrari (360 Mondena ?? excuse my ignorance).
A German registered VW Phaeton (first one I've seen here).
A rare long wheel base Audi A8 (A8L).

Thank you Leeson Street.

Thumper Long · 20-12-2006 11:09PM

the last car there was one of the funeral cars used today for that poor apprentice plumber who was shot in finglas, they drove past me today and i would have thought it bad taste to take a pic then, i dont feel so bad now its made its way on here.

cabla · 20-12-2006 11:57PM

Oh!! Didnt know it was for that, i saw it at about 8 oclock this morning.

cabla · 21-12-2006 12:00AM

Can someone prove my mate wrong. It looks like a 300c, but it said bentley on it and a big B on the front.

cabla · 21-12-2006 12:05AM

Right Maybe Im Wrong

YES you are right, i have seen this close up and it does say B on it. It was parked for a while in the car park in bray beside In car tech and so was the hearse with the same 300c design. tell your friend that its true.

ciarsd · 21-12-2006 09:23AM

The lights and the wheels are the biggest giveaways. It's definitely a 300c, I'm not doubting the B on the grill - just someone dressing mutton up as lamb IMO

Yes, it seems to be available with two different front grills. The second one in these two examples looks more like a Bentley to the uninitiated:

Good post Wishbone - wonder if Bentley management are doing anything about it

smash · 21-12-2006 10:00AM

ye I've seen it a few times, it's a 300c with a "B" - probably the same as the bentley taxi as I said before.

Wishbone Ash · 21-12-2006 10:28AM

Aston Martin DB9, an Aston Martin Vantage and a Bentley (Arnage?).

Incase you were wondering, that last one isn't an M5. Look at the side mirrors and (lack of) side gills.

bigslick · 23-12-2006 11:50AM

i know, its a 530 but seeing a white one is very rare. just thought id share it

Wishbone Ash · 23-12-2006 07:36PM

A BMW 650i (apologies if they are quite common but I think it's the first one I've seen).
