According to the Government data, there is one Ferrari Testarossa. Aston Martin peaks with the DB11 – there are 7 in the country.

John Byrne, Cartell.ie says:
“With so much uncertainty in the current market, it is interesting to see how many top-end luxury cars are in the country. Porsche leads the way with a variety of models and the avid car spotter has the chance to see a Ferrari Testarossa and a Ferrari 458 Italia among other super-luxe vehicles in Ireland.”
