Brand new Taycan

Cheensbo · 30-07-2020 4:00pm

Awful shame those didn't come with an overheating ICE engine... The name is going to waste.

Duke O Smiley · 30-07-2020 4:19pm

What is the Taycan competing with, the Model S or the Model 3? I’ve seen a surprise number of them about

Model S is probably closest competitor, but base Taycan is probably the guts of €50k dearer than a performance Model S

The last time I saw one of those Saabs on the road was when my parents had one in the mid 90's :eek:

colm_mcm · 31-07-2020 10:17am

Ugh, that’s the same colour as ‘the one be that got away’

traco · 31-07-2020 2:28pm

Could that not have gotten an old ZV plate or whatever, that format looks way to long. would have been better as a black on white plate if using the current format.

zilog_jones · 31-07-2020 3:43pm

ZV's have five digits now too so aren't much better. Are they doing the fixed higher numbers for new imports of >30 year old cars now? No way there have been over 120000 84-D registrations. Seems silly.

They’ve been doing them for over 10 years.

Went for a bit of spotting today. Some good stuff in town:

Greg81 · 31-07-2020 7:41pm

It is time to free some space on the phone.

Let's start local.

March. Lucan. Finnstown Castle.

didn't know that there was a gtc4lusso on Irish plates! Nice....

Marcinek_55 · 31-07-2020 8:45pm

That Huracan is local for me. He was out of garage on wednesday. Heard it start on the back of garage when i dropped my car to fix sensors...

I was in the car heading next place when saw him driving so i follow him for a while hoping he'll park somewhere nice so i could take some photos but he turned into private gate... next time.

Garzard · 01-08-2020 6:11pm

Found by a friend earlier somewhere in Tipperary. Could have just been pushed off the road and abandoned there since no one else was about. No mention of any signs of a crash either.

I'd say it's a certain entrepreneur who has a long history of Ferrari ownership. He had a couple of 456s in the past and a California T more recently.

Will that be owner of that 488 Pista (no photos) driving in town today too ?

el diablo · 02-08-2020 3:24am

4.2 Quattro. Is it an Audi 100?

Also saw a bunch of sAmgs, a G63 and some Lambos today but they're a dime a dozen.

I'd doubt it. I don't think he's that into the track focused Ferraris.

Was it on Irish plates?

And here is more of what I saw today:

humberklog · 02-08-2020 10:13pm

This does be knocking about Howth. Lovely colour.

Ooh, rare yoke...

sligojoek · 02-08-2020 10:27pm

Saw this in the local filing station last week. I've posted a few of this lads yokes before. His latest addition.

SmartinMartin · 03-08-2020 11:46am

The pink Honda? Wasn't that a special order colour?

I think he knows that, his nickname is 'smart' for reason

Ballyfermot, crap picture as I had to take it out the car while at lights. Lovely thing altogether.

5 minutes beforehand in Liffey Valley Tesco, don't see many V12s around.
