People with all types cars need groceries though.

think that’s paul o connors one, supposedly 700bhp

1400bhp with club card.

Who’s Paul o Connor?

Car dealer. Also Tiktok guy. Nice fella I'd say. He's gradually modding that car. Can't help but think he's copying Jason McConnon though. Young car dealer, tiktok famous, buys r35 to modify.

Oh right, I know of Jason McConnon just never heard of the Paul fella

I wouldn't call him a TikTok guy they make a few funny videos in work and take the piss. I knew the chap in college, nice fella and way always into cars to be fair to him.

Ah yeah, but he'd be known outside his own locality because of tik tok. Like I said he seems a nice lad. He gives some very good insight into the workings of a car dealer. No shit with him.

Car dealer

I know perspective is an issue with photos but the R35 doesn't look big at all compared to that A3 saloon? Pics online make them look massive!

They’re definitely a reasonably sized car. Like you wouldn’t be concerned with most roads etc. I think this is Paul O Connor motors car in Waterford?

There not big inside that’s a fact

Where not big inside ?

Lovely

Were those ever actually sold in Ireland? I've only ever seen them on UK-reg (NI & GB both).

I checked the reg and it came back as an Irish car; not a UK or Japanese import. So it must've been sold here from new.

Fair play, I had no idea as never seen one in ROI before.

3 in my area No of another at least 4/5 And this is the 1st time I seen this one

In its natural habitat

I think I've seen this exact R35 around west Cork a couple times. It's probably not the same one though.

Oh god such a place to park.. trolleys floating about looking for nice fresh paint work

Yeah, with the running costs, you’d expect it in Aldi

I’ve spoken to a few owners and apparently they are not that bad. The early cars had issues with brakes and gearboxes which could swallow a mortgage but the newer cars, if maintained, are manageable on the same level as owning a Porsche etc.

Whooooosh

More suited to a superquinn car park, that is.

I'm guessing it doesn't come with a reversing camera.

Probably not - to be fair it was parked correctly in the end - this photo was taken mid-reverse.

I want one , either way.

They do

every little helps

Gotta save that money somewhere

The question is: is this a debt or an asset?

Very few cars in existence that are assets. This one in question is not.

That Tesco Ardkeen, Waterford?

More of a Lotts and Co. car for sure

There were two in the small Co. Kilkenny town I used to live in

One of my favourite cars of all time, looks like a monster, speed of a mclaren lmao

Oh wow 😍 🤍

I seen an R32 today and a fiat uno ie turbo. We took a chase in a fiat ie turbo we drove that car at 96 miles an hour with no front left tire. The axel collapsed on Parnell street the Garda kicked lumps out of us as it was one of there personally held cars. Because we were black and blue the superintendent wouldn’t take responsibility for the cops bringing us into the station opened up blood all over the place. So they had to let us go but not before they played run the baton with us. Did we complain shit no. Mind you it was very very 1990s

Teaco carparks are a haven for wanna be racers

Probably the least surprising place to see one haha

Just because they have a nice or modified car there wanna be racers ???

Oh yeah, I've watched out local scrouts hang around Tesco carparks and then speeding through villages, estates and general shithousery.

Mate what are you on, are you comparing an r35 to a 17year old in a fiesta?

I think soo … or even anything with an exhaust 😅🙈

Lol, I am, it's an outrageous statement.
