    Who says there is only one in Ireland? :rolleyes:

    What do you mean by this? You dont have to go through a dealer but someone that rich is not going to go through the hassle of sourcing one in europe and getting it shipped back and get it vrt'ed.They just want the car with irish plates and they will pay the price.

    I was made aware of this today. I, for one, have never bought a car from a dealer, no matter what car I was after.

    But this is someone paying nearly 2 million for just 1 car? I dont think we will ever have a 2 million car, so we dont know what the experience is :)

    This thread is full of hearsay already, so a bit more won't hurt

    Or can you prove it?

    Why do you think this? Perhaps, to see what you are getting with a Veyron you must drive it on roads such as N'Ring before you buy it. I have never bought a car that I haven't tested fully. And not everybody who buys supercars just wants a badge or a look, some are proper enthusiasts. :cool:

    No dealer will give you a test drive on the N'ring, You must be dreaming :)

    So you have looked to test a car on the 'Ring before? I never said the 'Ring exactly, I just said "such as the N'Ring". ;)

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,241 ✭✭✭drdre


    Yeah i seen the picture of the veyron on the track before but that was a veyron being tested for speeds etc and not a customer.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,451 ✭✭✭blastman


    I have a Veyron !!


    it's 1:18 scale, though


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7 K.A.


    I wonder how true to detail that is! Would be nice to compare.

    drdre: Some pictures dont lie within a google search ;)

    Are we to take it that you in fact took that picture and it is a picture of a Veyron in Ireland? They don't look like Veyron wheels?

    Well personally no mater how much I had, if I was getting a Veyron I'd get it myself...

    at 1,279,915.71 EUR + 500k VRT you're saving money! and even if you had 15 million in your account, you'd still want to save yourself 200k.. maybe buy an apartment somewhere with it and let the rent cover the cost of petrol every month!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 34,809 ✭✭✭✭smash


    ps lads... got this somewhere else!

    thats not a production model, its a concept

    this thread needs some proof that there is a veyron in ireland instead of every 10 posts someone says "i know someone who has one but im not gonna tell and i dont have pics" - they really are great contributers to this thread. until we get proof/pictures this thread is just a waste of time based on several individual suspicions.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7 K.A.


    And I suppose you have been in the market for a veyron and know the full extent of what can be had?!

    I own a veyron and I know for a fact it is not the only one here in Ireland.

    Thats all I am saying.

    I don't doubt you for one moment but to put a claim like that on here would require pics for the many, many doubting Thomases to believe you!

    And a few doubting Fey!s and Testicles by the sound of things, too!!!

    Big picture with a sign saying "I'm K.A. from Boards.ie and this is my Veyron" outside some local, well known landmark should just about cover the proof, I think!!! :D


  • Moderators, Politics Moderators Posts: 42,129 Mod ✭✭✭✭Seth Brundle


    Alternatively, (s)he can come around to my house with it to prove its authenticity!
    I feel as moderator on here that this might be the best option :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,183 ✭✭✭Fey!


    with the proviso that you get to bring it up the M4 for a rip with me in the passenger seat...

    TBH I would not hand over the €500k VRT for this. That would be criminal. Instead I would buy a UK residence & run the car from there!! Whe you look at this VRT amoutn it really shows you what a rip off tax it is. Most people that own these cars will only reqly ever drive them once or twice a year. Why pay €500k for the priviledge of having 07-D-127396 or something plastered on the front of it?

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 447 ✭✭siralfalot


    I suppose its how you look at it and how much of a petrolhead you are, in my own personal view, if you have that much cash to spend on a car in the first place, then what's another €500K?
