  1. So a mate picked this up today... great color combo, he’s chuffed with himself.. just wondering if it’s anyone on here’s old steed?? It’s headed to Northern Ireland so it’ll see plenty of backroads no doubt!
  2. I'm guessing you're a bit of a petrolhead!!🤔🤔🤔 so try answer this, if all of the cars above were lined up in front of you and you could take one for a blast on your favourite road with no traffic, which would you pick??
  3. Lets raise the stakes lads.... you'll be aware the euro millions was won in Ireland yesterday, so €88.6M lands on your lap.. deffo an LFA which is a stunning thing in the flesh, Bentley Mulsanne, Panamera hybrid and a Mini Countryman for the misses...
  4. yep that's the one, that clip was made a few years ago now but a good clip. My brother is driving the F and I'm in the Holden HSV at the start. Great sound coming through from the V8...
  5. So I traded my ISF this time last year with a dealer in Dublin Ireland, and havnt seen it since. The dealer says it was nearer February before it shifted and he sold it to a UK resident. The chances of me seeing it again are slim so I'm wondering if anyone here has it. Its silver in colour and had 52k on it last year, if you have you've a good one, it was totally reliable and never had one single problem, despite occasionally being pushed hard...
  6. I wouldn't be put off by low miles for the age of the car either, mine had 16k on it when I bought it and it was 4 years old. Turns out it was bought new by a euromillions winner, it was the first car he bought when the cheque cleared! For the last year I had mine it only covered 7k, I was using a jeep for work and the F just wasn't used. High or low miles, you'll never tire of that V8 sound...
  7. only 1500???? the pedal on the right makes it move!!
  8. Ive had mine 4 years and covered 40k in it. here is the list of parts ive replaced, apart from front discs and pads; 1) eh,hold on, mmmm, no, cant think of anything.....eh...
  9. Hay James, I got Pagid pads for the F in April and they are very good. They were a steal at £36! As far as I remember there was a sale on at the time so I bought 2sets of fronts and a set of front discs for €205 (euros) all in, delivered to Ireland. I didn't get rear pads as I previously had yellow stuff on all corners and the rear were fine when the front were shot. The Pagid have been on two trip to the ring and always had plenty of feel even after 3straight laps, around 80k of extreme hard braking, if you search through the forum for other brake topics I'm sure the link is there as lots of guys here bought them because the prices were very very good. Hope this helps, Damien.
  10. I'd like one touch indicators, one touch and it flashes 3 times. The misses Galaxy, my cooper S and even my Caddy van have it, not much to ask for but very handy!
  11. Yep that's me alright Gavan, haven't seen another F at a cars and coffee so it'd be nice to spot one! Stick some pics up here and backroads when you get a chance. There was a white F for sale for a long time in Ireland, on at 30k, but I heard it had heavy frontal damage and was poorly repaired. Yours now brings the total number of ISFs in Ireland to 7. So still rare in my book. What mileage is on yours??
  12. In Kildare, about 45mins from Dublin docks, around the same from Dun laoghaire which is another port the ferries from Holyhead use. Sure let me know when your trip is, if I'm free we could have a show and tell! I'm sure some of me petrol head mates would come along to see another F!
  13. Holyhead??NCT?? Are you headed for Ireland? If so where abouts? I'm in Kildare (Naas) be nice to see another ISF in Ireland!
  14. Congrats on the car, you won't be disappointed! One thing to check is the wheels. Each one is specific to each corner, the spokes are designed to suck air into the wheel to cool the discs as they spin, so the fat side of the blade should be on the left side, when the blade is at the top of the wheel. Also ask if the nav disc has been updated. Other than that, enjoy!! Oh, on your drive home put it in sport mode with the box in manual, and nail it. Change up at 6000 rpm and down at 5000rpm. You'll hear it blip the throttle for you and nearly pass out with excitement!
