Irish Girls Go GaGa For A Romeo...

What is it about a sleek red Italian sports car that brings out Ireland's hottest young babes in their droves? All these years we've been conned by coleens telling us they want a reliable, respectful, sensitive, caring and faithful man. Balls! They all really want a hairy chested sexist brute driving an Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione and smoking a fat cigar... Damn. Knew it!

Oh, the modern man has a Sex in the City CD boxset, a taste for organic vegan Japanese lentils, a season ticket to the Vagina Monologues and even penchant for the odd weepy movie while skipping Match of the Day... Why? Coz the modern woman indicated that she'd have sex with us if we got in touch with her femininity and dropped the masculine bullcrap. That's why!

Sara Kavanagh

Forget it lads. It's all lies, LIES I TELLS YE... Hot ladies want fellas who drive fast red sports cars with two seats and pop-up lights. Fact. The modern woman doesn't want Jamie feckin' Oliver in her kitchen chopping veg. Hell no. She wants Magnum P.I. outside her house, waiting impatiently for her in a growling red Ferrari (basically any red sports car will do, as girls think all red sports cars are Ferraris).

Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione

How did we work that little gem out, we hear you cry? Well, just look at all the top model and actress types that turned-up at The Shelbourne the other night for the launch of the new Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione car. We couldn't move for the all hot stunners falling over this beast of a machine. They were everywhere...

And when you have fast cars and hot ladies, lads with large cheque books inevitably aren’t too far behind looking to vroom home with something racy, pacey and curvy. And if pushed, even invest in a new motor. Ahem.

Michele McGrath

The regular female faces from Dublin's social set were out in their hoards to get a peek at the new Alfa. Models Michele McGrath, Sara Kavanagh, Rosanna Davison and Roberta Rowat lined-out beside actress Tara Leniston and her singing sis Sophie Leniston at the preview...

Sophie Leniston

In case you didn't know, Sophie 'The Fringe' Leniston is the only Irish contingent in a UK girlband that was called Stiletto. But due to some other band in the US of A, with the same name, Soph and the gals have rebranded themselves as 'City Girls'... And we always thought she was a rural lass...

Rosanna Davison, Wesley Quirke

Rosanna Davison's model boyfriend Wesley Quirke was also spotted at The ‘Bourne drooling over the new Alfa-mobile... Don't go getting any ideas about getting behind the wheel of this little lady Wes. Nooo. Not until you get a proper job lad. Annnd before you say anything, dating a former Miss World is NOT a proper job. If it were, we'd all be at it. Well...

Roberta Rowat, Rosanna Davison, Sara Kavanagh

Hey! Gerroff me motor you three frocked hooligans... What would Tom Selleck say?
