I was coming home from Tipp tonight when I was pushing along with this headcase in a 2003 Jag XKR (he was a pure spacer

) any way I was coming along the N7 and I seen in the distance what I thought was a Chrysler 300 but to my suprise as I got closer it was a Continental Flying Spur it had a 05 KE reg on it, this must have been the only one in the country last year, I know there is a few GT's about but the Flying Spur I thought was fairly new. Sure there nearly €280k

Saw my first Phantom (on the road) on the way to work this morning, was gone past before I got to clock the reg though... has some serious presence, like the way the rear lights are lit too... all around the edge

Yea I saw a similar Bently outside the Clarion hotel in Limerick last week when I was down there for work...
It didn't impress me that much, I'd rather have a A8 anyday...

I see one of those 300C's on the M50 some times. My god what a huge car. Noting visually appealing about them just the size of the goddam thing.

Sure most of the money in this country must be over in the west!!

Saw a new Rolls Royce Phantom on the M50 one night. Pretty massive car in the flesh. And the lights are fairly blinding when coming up behind you!!. Was on northern plates.

There are a couple of new Flying Spurs in citywest hotel recently, Im not sure if they have upgraded the 2 existing phantoms tho, would make for some impressive fleet if they have all that hardware.
