    Anyways, while I might not be informed, the car is still very unpractical for Ireland, it's huge.

    So what? By the sounds of it, if you had your way, we'd all be driving around in Trabants. :rolleyes:

    Jasus Lads this is a HWIST thread, not a here's what I want to saw and want to rant about. If you want to discuss the fuel implications of owning a US gas suzzler open a seperate thread. (Sorry in work and grumpy)

    Anyhoo, I took this ages ago but it will get the nice car ball rolling again.

    No, you'd all be driving tricycles.


    But seriously, where did you get the notion that I was suggesting that everyone should drive small vehicles? I was just giving my opinion, I was not imposing it on everyone.

    In fact I'm completely against it, it pisses me off when I see cars with small engines, BMW 5 series with 2 littles....... all this crap because of taxes, co2, gas prices and other things.

    So you're saying the Ford GT isn't an amazing car?

    Saw this yesterday in London any ideas what it is - very Porsche-esque

    Not really, its not to my taste anyway.I would have a lambourgini and a ferrari for that money to be honest or just get a top spec lambourgini.

    Did a bit of research and found out myself. The car is a PGO Cévennes, based Porsche 356.

    Someone must have bought a badge...

    I seen a silver one recently, it had bigger than normal disc brakes, presumably it was real


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,267 ✭✭✭kc66


    From the Brabus website they tune S320 diesels.

    Well I never, back in my day a tuned diesel would be a bad word. You kids and your modern fangled ways.
