There's more than 9 E39 M5s on the roads.. I know of 3 in Cork City alone, and see plenty when in Dublin.
And a glut of AMG models - i wonder how many of them Merc are selling in this country, cos there are a few C-class, a couple of CLK coupes, and one or 2 E Classes in the city aswell.

Eamo
I think the only way you will find out for certain, the amount of M cars on the road, registered in Ireland, would be to ask the Motor taxation Office who their top 1000 potential payers are in the country, that would surely include all genuine M's.

Joe - Good point
Methinks its best for M owners to vote only as I know of an m5 in sligo too. Is it the same one as the one you know - who knows.
My point is that we all see M cars going around even some which look like the real deal but arent.
I dont think we would get a true reflection of the numbers out there.
The flip side of that is not all M owners belong to the club or know about thiuis forum!

Eamo?
Do you want people that own M's only to vote?
I know of 3 E46 M3's, 2 E36 M3, and 1 E39 M5 in Sligo.
Didn't add them, but they are in the Emerald Isle!
