I love it. As for the styling, well a RR doesn't have to look gorgeous in the normal sense does it? It just has to look like a RR. The car has undoubted presence, and to be able to sit in a beautifully crafted, comfortable, silent cabin, and accelerate to 60 in under 5 seconds, must be an amazing feeling. What a car biggrin

Yes it does. Nobody likes ugly regardless of the badge on the bonnet. That's just a ridculous sense of 'Up England' talking.

Yet that, I will agree with somehow.

Almost, it's nice to have the sound, (albeit somewhat muted), of a nice well sorted V8 to listen to. Otherwise you may as well be on a luxury train. So we'll change that last part to near silent eh?
