    There's a V10 badged Tourag knocking about Dublin, saw it this morning. I think it's an Irish reg. Also saw a Aston Martin V8 Vantage too.

    Nice , its a GT not GTC.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,445 ✭✭✭tc20


    nothing too spectacular, but I've not seen one before, and it may give the horn to some of the Toyota heads on here -
    Auris SR180 (with discreet 'ring sticker)
    I'm guessing its an import by the high reg no.
    Would/could this be seen as the spiritual successor to the GT6 Corollas of the 90s?

    I think I had that bumper splitter on a 1.4 Auris back in the day. Had the twin exhausts too. Weird thing is that the exhaust tip looks like the Toyota Motorsport one that comes on the twin exhaust...

    I think it is!


    Marcinek you take really spectacular photos, you really have a talent for it. Unfortunately I'm usually uninterested in the cars you take pictures of :o (sorry).

    If you could, and you don't mind taking the time, I think it would be brilliant if you could put together a post of "hints and tips" that might help us amateurs take better pictures of our cars. I'm useless of taking photos but occasionally take one that turns out really good(by accident :pac:). If you could help us understand just very basic tips for what makes a good photo of a car it would be brilliant. :)


    Might you consider it?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,309 ✭✭✭✭wotzgoingon


    ^^ First tip buy an expensive camera like a DSLR and then spend more on different expensive lenses.

    Well I don't think that's true. Even so I have a DSLR anyway :)

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,620 ✭✭✭Graham_B18C


    Saw this yesterday, the guy gave it the beans a bit when he saw me talking the pic! It's some form of Murcielago, i asked what type and I think he said it's a competizione but i dunno if they even exist! Can anyone shed some light? Pretty cool reg and the spoiler looked pretty badass imo.

    Also saw this yesterday afternoon, beautiful car but an absolutely horrendous colour! That in black would be insanely cool.

    nope. they're 5 speed. 130bhp.
    drove one 15 years ago. thought it was so fast!

    Very quick car considering the weight of it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 73,477 ✭✭✭✭colm_mcm


    not sure id agree. the sporting was close enough to it in real life from a 1.2
    motorzone in limerick had a green hgt they couldn't sell for years.
    my 1.8 diet-vtec civic has similar performance figures to that hgt despite being bigger and heavier.


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


    The hgt was good for almost 130mph and the 1.2 sporting wasn't able for that.
    I think the 0-60 times were almost the same.
    If I had to choose I would actually go for the 1.2 sporting or if it was possible to buy one the 1.4gt mark 1.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 73,477 ✭✭✭✭colm_mcm


    Would love an uno turbo or a mk1 GT

    Turbo lag
