Seperate i hope they bring some english car, not only irish supercars... if there is only cars from ireland it's mean nothing special, I mean i saw near;y all them on Irish roads... but if i remember last year they got koenigsegg and zonda

Enzo and a Koenigsegg there last year, no Zonda. Would be curious to know what cars are there this year, have free tickets to go on Saturday but don't know if I'll bother!?

A Citrone that I like the look of.
I feel so confused.

The cockpit in those things is insane.

I'm aware of that, I was referring to how the 'pillarless' wrap-around windscreen and the sloping roof line are very similar to that of a koenigsegg

I spotted a new SAAB 95 last night near Jobstown in Tallaght.

Was driving past and didn't get a snap but unfortunately it was after being rear ended by what appeared to be a very angry red faced female bear type creature in a Nissan Almera.

OOOHHH was that before or after it was stolen...or was it on blocks when it was rear ended... Sorry Onkle..:D:D

Didn't get a good look at the gentleman driving it but he certainly didn't look local to Jobers, or happy for that matter. It could of been nearer Kiltipper, although I worked there for 12 months I can't say I got to know the place well.

Hard to tell what happened, either she rear ended him or he pulled out in front of her.

The damage was mostly to the rear bumper, lights and the rear quater panel on the passenger side. The other car was damaged on the front drivers side.

If you wasn't on Top Gear Festival and that show is not finish yet - don't read this post

I can describe this festival in one word: ^#&%@$...

The show with Jeremy Clarkson, James May, Richard Hammond and Stig was nice but the rest wasn't. Lets start from Motor Arena: except 3 cars in hall all them were on Cannonball, only cars nice to spot was White Bugatti Veyron with 2nd most expensive number plates on the world (22mln $$) and "Eleanor", rest i have spoted before... Then show was start... it was realy nice, after few minutes was supercars show... lovely... Jaguar XJ220 and Noble M14 - only two cars i didn't see before. I was waiting to spot them on some display, but here was suprise: i couldn't becasue i didn't buy backstage tour ticket... in not fair in my opinion, I hope that if i paid 75Euro for ticket i will spot all the cars, but not - welcome on Top Gear Festival :[ Next: "Dream rides" - was thinking it will be some Ferrari or Pagani or any other supercars, but i saw there Alfa's and Ford's... if that was supercars then my BMW is hypercar disappointedwalked to paddock, hopefully i will se something special there: another bad suprise: Yellow Viper and Black F430 from DesCullenCars and some rally cars form Mondello... I was taking photos around Paddock, from radio i heard that monster truck show is start in few minutes... i saw all that junkies and them kids who have ticket for free were running there - so i couldn't took any good shots. walked on Monster Truck - 5minutes - 2 laps and that's it... heard from radio that in few minutes on track will start supercars parade... i was thinking finally jaguar and noble on track... but nooooooo, again yellow Viper and F430, second group of supercars: 92 and 95 Lancer... if that are supercars, so now i'm sure my BMW is hypercar. i lost my hope to see nice cars and i walked to car park and drive home: here few photos:

2 of 3 Electric cars:



Cars i saw first time in my live ( M3 is "von Ac Schnitzer", not normal M3):

I'm not happy with this Festival and won't be back there next year.

I can only praise that i saw: Jeremy Clarkson, James May, Richard Hammond nad Stig

Show was nice but everythink around wasn't

I hope you like my relation and photos

Mr. Manager

I honestly think I just jizzed my pants looking at that Shelby GT500.

Fairly sure that is a 1.6, not a type r.
It has been like that for a few weeks, had horrible wheels on it anyway! Owner of it must live there!

but i saw there Alfa's and Ford's

If you were disappointed by the sight of an Alfa Romeo 8C, I am lost for words! It's a piece of art on wheels. Great pics though.

That's not true. I didn't bother going this year, I got free tickets but didn't get time but I would have loved to have seen the Bugatti Veyron, 300SL Gullwing, Ford GT, Alfa 8C, GT500, etc., none of which were at the Cannonball.

Then you have the 458's, Carrera GT, XJ220, Murcielago, Spyker, Noble, etc.

Not sure what the show was like but thats a decent group of cars they got together for a show in Ireland, you can't bash them for that.

Fixed your image links there - you were linking to the page your photos were on, rather than the files themselves.

no no you don't understand me: Alfa 8C was inside in Motor Arena not on Dream Rides...

Ford GT was on Cannonball not red but it was there...

I have to explain that: if i said that those cars was bad that mean i'm stupid, because those cars were nice, but the problem is: i couldn't spot them on display becasue i had no backstage tour ticket... and i want to say that all cars including those car should be on stand to see by anyone. I didn't expect that with one of the cheapest ticket what i had i will not see all cars... i didn't understand what mean backstage tour - i was thinking it's meeting with that 3 guys and somethink like that...

I'm not bashing them but i expect somethink more...

Before i decide to buy ticket i checked this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hKh0vDmEyps it's top gear live in some other city... so maybe now you will understand what i expect and why i'm dissatisfied and you will forgive me for that bad words i just posted before

Back on Thursday with much better photos and better cars... some photos of nice cars from streets as well

P.S. Forgive me :P :P

Seperate

I thought the cars there were class. The quality of the paintwork on them was shocking though. Luckily I sat down with most of the owners, so it's all about to change.

Particularily enjoyed this....



Going over to the UK on 9th Dec to look after their other Veyron. I've loads of 'behind the ropes' pics of the Veyron if anyone wants to see!

Looks like an SVR, could be a GTR but im not sure the GTR was ever designed to be road legal.
