chimaera's in ireland

[fly]

quite simply does anybody in the republic of ireland own a chimaera.Been here six months not seen one,in fact not seen any.Ask about them and get blank looks i.e insurance/servicing.Wanting to buy but am a little worried that any little jobs will force me to cross the channel.Can anybody shed any light on this?

Would the car club be any help in this?
