What does the collective think of Bentley's attempt to woo us over?

For the life of me, I can't understand the layout and copy of articles on the Daily Mail website. They seem to jump back and forth, interject irrelevant text, and duplicate text all over the place. What the hell is wrong with these folks?
Regarding the Bentley, it does seem a bit chunky and the interior looks almost steam-punk. And why are they after sales of Aston in the first place? It's not like Bentley is the underdog here. They sell many more cars than AM and have a huge and wealthy parent company.

Needs bigger rims, spinners preferably, and lowered... Then wrapped in chrome or matt black..
I hate oversized alloys purely for show that will almost certainly just trash the ride. It shows the owners take no great interest in driving at all and it's all about the bling. (Apologies to all the BMW and Audi owners on 20 inch rims in advance)

Agreed. Would look mucg better on smaller non blingy wheels. As for the interior, one assumes thats not the final design. Look at the centre console above the gear lever, imagine the sun bouncing off that, would be unusable.I hate oversized alloys purely for show that will almost certainly just trash the ride.

Jesus H !!!! how to turn a beautiful car into a chav chariot .....they are truly awful
Thanks! It is the perfect garage along with my ASBO Orange focus.

I like the orange focus...always thought they looked great in that colour .......but the wheels on your Aston are horrendous .........but the good news is the next owner can change them easily (or you could) .....however I accept that not everybody has impeccable taste like me
I have the original wheels and seats so any future owner who happens to be a regular user of both pipe and slippers will be catered for

V8 Andrew Im liking your wheels. Loud but somehow understated at the same time. More pics please!
They are Projex Design Circuits dipped matt blackhttp://projexuk.com/wheels/projex/circuit/mbpf
Picture of car
Picture of seats - no harnesses... I'm thinking of having the central portion covered in grey alcantara to match the headlining and piping.
