    Roll Royce or a 1 bed apartment in D4?

    Feck that for that crazy price you could buy a nice house in the country somewhere as well as a holiday home in Portugal or Spain and still have money left over.
    It is absolutely crazy money for a car. You will never see one on Irish roads except for the canyon Run thing. London is where you need to be if you want to see one.

    Live long and Prosper

    Peace and long life.

    I think you must be unfamiliar with the typical person who buys a Rolls Royce :pac:

    They're likely well covered for holiday homes already ;)

    Both obscenely overpriced.

    I'm sure that Rolls is opulent inside but it's such an ugly car externally.

    I agree about the obscene price. You could feed a small African country for a number of day's with that cash. Recently a boardsie posted that two (2) Roller's have been registered in IRL. so far this year!

    The VRT one one of them would cover 700 peoples €350 Covid payment.

    That looks feckin deadly!! Nice light interior too. I'd say being hybrid it's super silent.

    Yes it’s very quiet. Takes a bit of getting used to coming from a diesel.
    It doesn’t feel like the car has even started 😂

    I would say not for a month or two. It's going to be then sometime that lockdown will end.

    People should look for the 2 per cent Vat reduction to be extended start a petition maybe. Get whoever is in charge of the motor industry in Ireland to get onto the Government.

    Live long and Prosper

    Peace and long life.

    VRT for the top bands went up like 1 percent so not much more.

    The mad thing is there’s been a 2 Rolls Royce registered.

    Now sold more than Alfa Romeo lol

    That other RR is a Dawn convertible

    Just checked and you’re right, the body type is convertible. I’d love to see that.

    Beshoff Motors sold it, they’ve pictures of it up on their Instagram now.

    I wonder when was the last time a Rolls Royce was registered new in Ireland? 2008 I think?

    According to BeepBeep, there was one registered in Jan 2008 and two in 2007, none since

    Ye it's due to be unveiled in April sometime.

    I think they should fit the badge on the grill. I also hope if it looks like that they turn the DRLs around. Makes no sense to have it going across the bottom like that. I never understood the obsession of putting the badge/Logo on the bonnet unless it comes down into the grill like a Renault Laguna say or MK1 Megane. I have seen a few version of what the front could look like so it will be interesting to see how it turns out. They could all be wrong too. The version I seen with the badge on the grill I thought looked the best.
