I saw one of these lovely beasts in our shared car park last Friday. It was a 01 D, and I'd say the owner must be as proud as hell driving her!

I presume there's quite a long list for the Ferrari 360 Modena. Considering there are no Ferrari dealers in Ireland, is it a special order only car here? How rare are they in Ireland, and how much would one cost new?

I'm not sure Junior, I was in my car at the time driving past it, and didn't pay too much attention to the reg plate. I just drooled over its sleek red bodywork...but what a fantastic plate to own!

I saw that car parked outside Smyths on Haddington Road last Friday week. I saw it again on Baggot St that Sunday.

As far as I know there quite a few 360s knocking around Dublin at the moment. Maybe even 10. Des Cullen has had a few through his showrooms.

Sapman, is that new or used imports from the UK?

Saw a red 360 the other day, I think the reg was 00 D 30360.

I also noticed a '98 355 in the paper for £120k. What a comedian. I think the going rate in the Europe is about half that. But I suppose with the very limited supply in Ireland the price can be set to anything.

I think most of the high-end stuff Des Cullen has is brought in from the UK. He always has a few nice models in there. Supposed to be good to deal with also. A friend of mine has bought from him a few times and has only good things to report.

I remember Lambe & O'Connor had a 550 Maranello for sale at IR£247,000 !!

The VRT boys probably just double the markeyt value to take the piss!!

I was in Eddie Rockets today at around 3.00 pm when the beast went past the window. It had a 01 D reg on her.

Looked fantastic as it traveled along Baggot Street.

Well I saw the 360 in the car park again yesterday and it didn't have any specially '360' numbered reg plate.

So I guess that makes 3 differently spotted 360's then!

Yeah there must be a few of them. I seen a 00 one this morning. You think he would have washed the damn thing.

Funny thing is I seem to keep bumping into them over the last week. What's that all about???
