Yes, Johnny Ronan's - it was parked outside the Treasury Building in Grand Canal Street Upper. The chaffeur didn't seem that impressed with me taking a picture.

Thought he owned the tipp reg'd one???

Seen an 07 CL500 parked on the ballyroan road.

Really has to be seen in person to get the sense of raw power ready to leap forward at any moment

Think he owns the treasury building... treasury holdings etc so am sure the security guard or the chauffeur ain't gonna let him get clamped.

He has a 05 Merc SLR too which is regularly parked on show outside the new Ritz Carlton hotel in Powerscourt.

AFAIK, that one belongs to a wealthy owner of racehorses in South Tipp. Surname starts with M..

If you crash you die, thats the bad thing.

Captain Slow IRL · 11-02-2008 09:57AM

if you crashed in a cinquecento, you'd die - at least you'd have a smile on your face in the atom:D

bigslick · 12-02-2008 05:11PM

Unusual to see one of these this side of the world

ShaneU · 12-02-2008 06:19PM

I saw a black mercedes on the malahide road reg: 08-D-1

Someone told me before that that reg is reserved for the Lord Mayor? True?

Correct. 'XX - Y - 1' plates are reserved for Mayors/Lord Mayors in Cork, Dublin, Limerick and Waterford.

Hey ash, that's the guy who screamed at me "Car Thief" when I asked could I have a look inside. I was a bit taken aback.

A - Ok I was unshaven and wearing a grey echo unltd hoodie

but

B - I had just pulled up in my S320 LWB to collect my kid.

This happened outside the coffee shop on St. Mary's road, total twat of a guy.

The last 3 pics have been around the web for a few years now. :rolleyes:

Saw the new Fiat 500 (Cinquecento) on James' St. this morning - being driven by a guy in Fiat overalls etc. but no sign of trade plates or anything and the car had "500" plates on it only ! Obviously being driven (illegally) to some promo / garage. (apologies - no camera with me so no pic !)

Nice looking supermini - can see it doing well here esp. with the number of colour/interior option combos etc.

Roundstone. Co. Galway.

antodeco · 14-02-2008 08:29AM

IIRC someone died in that. Someone told me that before, but cant remember.

Maybe he assumed you had robbed the S320 and then spotted a better car to steal

I would be a bit taken aback if some stranger came up to me and asked for a look inside my car, especially if I had something pretty unique.
