But that actual M3 has been registered so the VRT is payed. Unless the dealer meant you should order your own M3 before July thus saving 10K in VRT.

Its Capel St. Max. . . I think the shopping trolley is the least threatening thing on there at that time

I would have thought the Phantom Drophead would have the most road presence of any car:cool: Great spot!! I hope it's not just visiting. When did you see it?

It joined the M50 Southbound at Lucan. I saw it coming on and couldn't quite believe it so 'manouvered' to get a closer look before I came off at the Red Cow. From the back it just didn't look the part to me, although the front was a different story :cool: I overtook him then pulled in and then he booted it past me! I'd take the forthcoming coupe if they were handing them out.

They are absolutely massive in real life though aren't they, especially for a convertible

Not sure if this has been mentioned on here before, but the car park in below the Beacon Clinic is a car spotters wet dream!!! Full of Ferarris, Porsches, Bentleys and Astons. 911's didn't even stand out compared the other exotic metal parked there... It was that impressive! Was more concerned about getting up for my appointment than taking photos the day I was there!

Worth spending the €1.50 to pop in for a look!!!!

The DB7 and F430 were both in the space of ten minutes of each other while I was sitting in Munchies on the corner of Exhequer Street, where I also saw a steel grey ISF and a new Merc SL, but the pictures I have of those two are crap. I like to think of it as sexy car corner.

Gives a bit of perspective to the size of the car. Small adult or not, looks like a bloody big car! They are pretty quick thou aren't they despite the size of it!?

EDIT: Nice spots QZ, i have yet to see a vantage properly - had 1 drive by me a year ago and thats been about it

Yeah it was my first Vantage spot in a while, it looks so much better in person. I was never in the "The AMV8 is the best looking car" brigade, but seeing it yesterday justifies it, it was absolutely spotless.
