    What a coincidence!!

    Seen as how you are one of the lads here on EI, I will cut you a better deal on the Austin Martin if you are interested. Its ideal for getting you from A to B.

    I have had some fun times in that car but its time to move on.

    Anyway you know where to find me if you want the car.

    I'd go for carrera, beast to drive yet comfortable enough parking could be a bit tricky tho, prefer 4 wheel drive but this one would do it alright..

    Disel Maserati wtf??!!

    Never been a huge fan of DB's rather, Continental GT...

    There was a time i wouldn't look past the DB9. but recently spotted one of those maseraties in london, in a very sporting blue, and it caught my eye.



    The fact that's it's a diesel is only a bonus in my eyes. Maybe I'm getting old !!

    Just checked the stat's there, and it can do 0-100km in 6.3seconds. That's quicker than a golf gti, and anyone that has driven one will know that's quick enough for anyone driving in this country

    I know, a Diesel engine in what should be a sports saloon is a bit of a wtf moment.

    Although I think it's worse when you see diesels in what actually are sports cars.

    In my less sensible days I had a Toyota Supra. It was a bit of a waste here, given the only place I could really take it through its paces was on the motorways.

    Exactly Ireland ain't great place for fast sport cars, obviously he didn't let me drive but was funny enough on passenger seat in F430, not much traffic but still couldn't enjoy the car fully not even on motorway!!

    Didn't know that there's an audi with such an engine, bit like 2.0 d X3 pretty useless in my eyes...
    Good bye Ireland!

    I once thought I had money, unfortunately it's all gone now.

    I had a 05 Db9 in 06. The leather dash creaked and drove me mad.
    Suspension too hard. Too big. Expensive to run in every way.

    I've had 5 997s. That's the model 911.
    My preferred car. However it's the old model and personally I wouldn't have the 3.6.
    Buy a 3.8. Personally I think they are getting a bit dated now.
    Buy a 991.

    Maserati. I had a quatroporte back in the day.
    It was a complete piece of shit that gave nothing but trouble.
    This said I know a guy with a fairly new one and apparently current models are pretty good.

    I also had a Bentley. New ones, another piece of shit that spent more time in Charles Hurst than with me.
    And couldn't keep petrol in one.
    Never again even if I had the money
