    It's an old BMW Z3, the most expensive one on sale on carzone is €8,950 and the cheapest €1,950. Not really sure what your point is other than thinking a shit car is expensive.

    A managing partner in a law firm has a car, so we shouldn't vote for her? Am I with you so far?

    Sounds like a nice number. She'd hardly be in it for the money:confused:

    Maybe she'll forfeit any payment due?

    I doubt there are too many local councillors in the country that are in it for the money.

    This is the general level of political discourse in the nation.

    "This candidate has a car that looks a bit flash so must be one of those evil wealthies I keep hearing about!

    I'm not voting for them, I'm voting for this salt-of-de-peeple Shinner/Independent who has no platform other than: taxes=BAD!"

    Well, I mean I wouldn't say no to an extra 30k (or more) plus expenses on top of my job.

    I do not care what her car is incidentally. I think we can all agree it most definitely wasn't paid for via tax payers money.

    Glad to see you're so impressionable OP. As others have pointed now, this car is worth feck all, a few grand max

    Tell me would you have created a thread if she was driving a 141 Toyota Corolla worth over 20 grand?

    I find it embarrassing that someone running for office during a period of austerity would use a sports car for their election campaign!

    Sends out the wrong message!

    She also calls herself a Banking Solicitor!

    That "sports car" is considerably cheaper than most family saloon cars.

    But you'd have to do a tiny bit of research to know that.........

    So she should buy a car just for the election.

    I really don't know what your trying to get at here OP.

    People have a fair few reasons to attack Fine Gael at the moment, I don't think this is one of them.

    The OP is a bit silly, most FG members and supporters have far bigger cars than that. They're getting richer while the rest of us suffer.

    Ya you are spot on, nothing to do with me believing in their policies, it is all about my 2002 polo that keeps bringing me back to Fine Gael...

    You know nothing about my personal financial situation, don't assume anything. Nor do I have any intention of sharing that information without despite how unimpressive it may be.
