Used to work on Mespil Road, opposite the infamous Maxol petrol station where the rich and famous of D2 and D4 would fill up their wagons. One day we spotted a Rolls Phantom... and a Maybach filling up at the same time! An average day you'd see scores of CL & CLS 500/600's, quite a few DB9's the odd Vanquish and a whole load of different Porsches from Cayenne's to 911 Turbos. Plenty Ferrari's around there too, that 599 sounds amazing! As for Bentley Continental's, take a spin up Aylesbury or Shrewsbury Road! Practically every second house has one parked on the drive. There was a nice R8 outside the office the other day, nice bus!

Whats happening woth the rubgy team at the moment...definitly not playing well at all...Though we were going through a bad spell when the soccer team wasnt doing too well i thought that the rugby team would bail us out but they both seem to be lacking that little bit of quality at the moment but we have to stay optimistic....
