    Yesterday I saw a Ferrari 360 in that Ferrari red, stopped at the lights in Donnybrook. Young-ish lad driving it. I got a good look at the rear and the exhausts. My God what a car.

    not very appropriate unkel considering your man Robbie died leaving a very young family behind not to mention making his wife a widower a second time :(

    I had presumed that it was like BMW & Alpina where only selected garages can have cars tuned by this house


    The Mercedes version of this is Brabus

  • Registered Users Posts: 4,090 ✭✭✭bennyx_o


    I know the guy who owns that prowler. He had a motobike crash and used the compensation to buy it and a Harley Davidson F150

    yeah they are standard issue on the TVR Tuscan. Look at bit like bike cans - they don't look that bad on the car, sure I've seen bike cans on civic's/starlets/saxos :eek:

    That seem very high ! 16-20 a year would seem more likely .

    I think the way it works is BMW have their own M-Sport division which produces/tunes their M series models. Alpina is an independant company that is licenced by BMW to offically tune/modify BMW models.

    And Merc's own tuning division is AMG. Brabus is an independant company that is licenced by MB to offically tune/modify MB models.

    The whole car looks awful IMO.


  • Registered Users Posts: 51,238 ✭✭✭✭bazz26


    The thing about the Tuscan is the handling is wild. There is no ABS or power steering so bring a spare pair of underwear when you drive it. :D

    Some people get TVR's, some don't. I do. Big time.


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,753 ✭✭✭qz


    I like TVR's. Saw a Griffith 500 in Galway a while back with the reg: 500 GRF.

    On my way from the airport to Wexford last week i had a few nice sightings:
    In the Airport Car park, a DB9 (and M3 beside it!)

    On the N7, a Rolls Royce Phantom, you have to see this in the metal to realise how big it is

    A nice looking GTO aswell,
