It's neither an RS or S Q7, there was no SQ7 in that shape, it's most likely a 3.0 TDI.

Correct. I just searched the registration and it came back as a "AUDI Q7 S LINE + TDI QUATTRO A 2012".

That is worse than the fake AMG or M cars, because at least those actually exist...

I pass that most days coming too and from work, great sounds from it... Think that guy had a 911 before the Audi

Yeah,fair play to him for using it daily though,there's two other cars in the same house,probably blocks it in but still I'd be very alert,a lot of traffic pass on that road too

Apologies for the crap shot.

My friend is in Paris. Sends me this asking what it was. I went back to him saying that's a Pagani Huayra, you wouldn't see one of them every day!

Then I looked further and noticed the "Pearl" on the splitter. Did a bit of research. It's a one off (like those once off Zondas that Top Gear had on every 2nd week ). A lot of websites saying it's worth more than 2.3m euro and was customised for a Saudi buyer.

Does the Huayra Pearl sticker make it a bit tacky!?

Good spot!

goochy

nice , don't think I would fancy driving in Paris !

No it is - go to cit at weekends !

where is the Tesla ?

sorry the R8 is actually blocked in by x2 very mundane cars and the fence blocks the view a fair bit.

this is Cork after all - thought I think outsiders have stolen cars - this coming from a Dub !

Could you make that a bit clearer? Not all of us here are fluent in cork

goochy

I am a dub in cork ? Cork has a very low crime rate .

No thanks, I see enough of the place from 9 to 5 everyday haha! :P

Probably best to block it in overnight instead of sitting precariously close to the road! You can't see much in those driveways from the road at least!

Per capita their crime rates are not that much different though. Dublin is far bigger so of course it'll have a higher crime rate.

Crime rate takes in per capita surely?

op I am from your neck of the woods - Celbridge - been in Cork 11 years - you really need to live in somewhere like Douglas - I lived in Glanmire for 3 years when in Cork first - then moved to Douglas - totally changed my opinion of Cork - you are used to living in a lively place so you need to move somewhere else lively.

Is Celbridge in Dublin now?

I love not being surrounded by scumbags too, that's why I live in a nice area of Dublin

Is this a "are you from Cork or dublin thread" or can we actually just move it along to what the thread is actually about?

Couldn't get a photo cause I was driving, but there was a guy in a 650I in front of me earlier, rev boming in traffic...Needed an after market exhaust IMO. Or maybe he was just shyte at doing it.
