Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    For some reason I got unsubscribed from this thread. Was wondering why I hadn't received a notification in a couple of weeks. :cool:

    Anyway, saw an Acura NSX in the wild at the weekend. Hopefully I'll get some pics of it when I see it again.

    We're all in this psy-op together.🤨

    Lovely car

    Rotten colour

    I love that colour! Really unusual and different... There's no accounting for my bad taste apparently :pac:

    Snot green personified.

    Having said that, I'd take one in any colour.

    Your snots must be radioactive. ;) Anyway, I like that colour. Prefer the Yas Marina blue metallic though. The black M4s look very bland.

    That's hardly a real car? You would do some serious damage to a pedestrian with that yoke.

    I've had a chest infection for the last few weeks. I've seen the whole spectrum from yellow to green :eek:. I'm sure it's in there somewhere.

    That colour reminds me of an 83 Starlet I had. The OH lost the rag when I arrived home with it. Luckily my father and brother were panel beaters. They sprayed it Ford Venetian Red. Added 10 MPH to the top speed as well.

    It was real alright. Set you back £5,900 back in 1981.

    I'm sorry but I have to say this as it is always on my mind when I view the pictures. I'm not sure if it is just you but if not someone else does the same so hopefully they see this. Why do you us the image tags when they are not being used??????? :confused: :P

    Saw the R8 V10 Plus on Facebook - something they just got in? Hardly a customer car, or is it?

    You think? The wheels look lost on it, I had to look up the reg to see if it was a real one.

    They had a white R8 V10 but that got sold. This one arrived in on Thursday I think and its up for sale. It has €26,000 worth of options on it bringing the price of the car to just under €300,000.

    They sold a grey one of similar spec last year too

    R8s must be damn popular in this country then.

    There`s a good few of the older v8`s & a few v10`s. There`s a few of the new v10 plus ones too. They`re great cars, great reliability and have a good network of service providers I suppose. Also I`d imagine people go for them cause even though expensive they're low key to other comparable price range cars

    In all probability it's more likely to be sold into the UK.

    Would it though? I would imagine in the UK the car would be much cheaper


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,822 ✭✭✭stimpson


    On the subject of R8's. Just fitted the dashcam on Friday and spotted this in Drumcondra.

    Wonder how much it cost him to bring his R8 from the middle-east over here.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,823 ✭✭✭✭bear1


    I'd be more curious insurance wise how it works?
    Imagine having to put a claim in...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,544 ✭✭✭goochy


    Sorry what R8 are you guys talking about ? The one at beshoffs? They sold an R8 GT recently so they must find a good market for them.

    If you're a Saudi and can afford an R8 then I'm sure you could have it flown in without having to worry about the cost.

    Oh I know that. Money is no object for him/her but I was just curious as to how much it was.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,270 ✭✭✭✭smurfjed


    Are they Saudi plates or Saudi export plates, if export plates, how did he obtain insurance?

    Probably quote him cheaper if he promises to keep it out of the country for a few months of the year, road accidents and deaths in the middle east are massive, plus there's no concept of "blood money" here :o
    My saudi 5.7 litres insurance is peanuts compared to my 1.6 litres in ireland.
