No pic, I'm afraid. Too busy drooling...

Saturday, about 5pm, in a queue of cars waiting to turn towards Donnybrook at the end of Fitzwilliam Place. Silver ZV reg 1973 Ferrari Dino. Most expensive and rare car I've ever seen being 'just driven around'.

Is that one a regularly spotted machine in Dublin, or did I just get lucky? There was a lovely Jag XK in the same queue. Made it look ordinary! '08 Yaris in between them...

Today I seen a 1985 Daimler Major Majestic. 4.3ltr. Awful barge of a yolk. Sorry couldn't get a better pic, was sitting infront of me in traffic and had to act fast with the no phone rule.

That's not a Majestic Major http://www.classic-auctions.com/Auctions/16-06-2012-RRECRockinghamCastle-1318/1966DaimlerMajesticMajor-35104.aspx
it's a DS420 landaulette http://www.carandclassic.co.uk/car/C196638
Prefer the MM with the V8, DS had a Jag 6 in it.

Dino ? or a 365GT ? Just sayin because Mr Quinn of the Merrion is a serious Ferrari man and that sighting would be on his route home

Different car. There is an early Dino around, think I saw pics of it at a Ferrari owners meet somewhere. Silver hard top.

And yes - EPIC machine.

The 850 and the 650 look very similar.

Looks well in the flesh, bland but not offensive

What? MG still make cars? :pac:

Honestly though, I don't think I've seen a newer MG than 2002 or thereabouts.

I'd love to get a better look at it. Has it been reliable? They're known for multiple niggly faults.

I thought the fact it was different would appeal to you. I looked into importing one in early 2013 but Vrt couldn't be calculated until I arrived home in the car so I decided against it
