moretothegirl

basically wanted to find somewhere to go look at fab cars , ferraris etc. tried to go by des cullen before, but then realised ya cant see into the showroom from the road and can only get in by appointment.... anyone know of anywhere else to be able to just drive by and see?

Ass

im pretty sure that you can only get in to the show rooms by appointment so they can keep people(people who are not actually going to buy anything) like you out

Try Richford motor company. They usually have some nice cars. http://www.richford.ie/home.php

As far as I know you can just walk in and have a look around. Just dont drool on the cars!

Des Cullen's keep their cars in the carpark below their offices - if you want to go and see the cars you can just pop into the carpark and check them out.

Keep an eye out for owner track days in mondello. Free admission and some pics of my first visit here
Or take a tip to spain like steve06 did recently where seem some sweet machines:D

Definately pop out to Sports & Classic, all the exotics are stored in a big warehouse which (and I'm 99% sure about this) is open to people to have a look around.

Their stock usually looks a little something like this.

Failing that, stroll along Shrewsbury Road/Fitzwilliam Square/Leeson St.

Just say you're going into the Beacon Hotel, it's the same car park. AFAIK you can just drive in.

I stayed in the Beacon Hotel a few times on business and there are some very nice motors in the multi-storey car park. No special entry restrictions I could see other than you needed your room key card to use the lift.

As stated already:

Des Cullens
Richford Motors
Sports & Classic

And also Gilson Motors

That's kind of it really and RE. Des Cullens - just park the car at londis and walk into the top floor of the carpark and there'll be a few on the right hand side. The carpark is shared between the hospital and hotel so it's public.

Maybe Kelly's car centre, but they're not in Dublin

Does this not sound like a bit of an odd situation? Thats alot of effort being put in just to see a Ferrari. They're nothing that special.

Gone in 60 seconds anyone? :pac:

I was thinking the same... it's an odd request to post on a forum. If he wanted to see where the cars are he can just look on carzone to see where is selling them!

HashSlinging

erm you can see loads of serious cars here..

BlackWizard

Oh right I was going to say "Waterloo Rd" but I guess he wants to see them in garages.
