A 275 GTB, I never knew there was one in Ireland, sorry I didn't make time off work just to see this one car, it would have been worth the trip alone. Its probably the most expensive car there, if it has a decent history its worth nearer €1,000,000 than €500,000.

Your friend was wrong the xr3i was a 1.6 until they done that 1.8 version in 1994 or around then that became the escort gti. Never a 1.3 though.

Great find. Where exactly did you see that? Is it a dealer or an exhibition?

Festival of speed today in Adare,taken with my phone

Would have loved to have gone to this. Only saw it was on when I was passing through on the way back from home.

How come you never know anything that's happening in this ****hole of a county, I was really pee'd off

Loving the TVR Sagaris, one of my favourite cars. But has that one been modified to fit a rather tall driver?

I assume you're referring to the slight height increase on the drivers side of the Sagaris. All of them had this, as can be seen here. IIRC, it was done to make room for a driver wearing a helmet.

It's the Ferrari Atelier at the Berkeley Hotel in Knightsbridge, London. It's where you go if you want to do some customisation of a newly ordered Ferrari.

The 512s was amazing, still had some stone chips on the front of it, love seeing stuff like that.

bmstuff · 03-08-2011 3:39pm

Came across those pictures on a french BMW forum today, the guy is a pilot from the french navy, stayed 2 years in the US where he received additional training.

5000 flying hours, qualified on le F18, not bad :rolleyes:

What could be better? Flying le M5 or le F18, I wonder...

He currently owns a 2008 X5.

This is a new showroom - opened few weeks ago... better would be to go to Lamborghini showroom - there was aventador (i wasn't there too far for me) and about 500m from this Ferrari is McLaren Showroom with 2 or 3 cars on display

I have the same photo of that LeMans Ferrari:

For me better showroom was Bob Forstner with few very nice cars - no chance to get in and take soem photos - i have only 2 cars:

behind zonda was Koenigsegg CCX and beside (not on the photo) was Spyker and few more Lamborghini

Have also one moro photo of Koenigsegg - parked in the truck before send it to Paris:

My next photos will be take on Cannonball on September

BTW on last wednesday i saw red Ferrari 360 Nass road in Dublin

Great pics Redorhead. Is that a ball hitch on the back of that Micra....:o:o. Was that in Lucan??

Both RS6`s look savage.

Some towing capacity on her I'd say, yep in lucan heading towards right turn towards strawberry beds.

AMG black series

stimpson · 08-08-2011 12:10pm

I'll see your Black AMG and raise you a SLS AMG. spotted on the seafront in Bray on Saturday. Sorry for the underexposure - I was too excited to worry about such things.

Voodoomelon · 08-08-2011 12:41pm

Ha ha, only in Ireland would you dump a super car like that!

I'm surprised nobody has transferred it to the "obnoxious parking" thread. :rolleyes:
