A Toureg/Q7 with a Bentley grille. How imaginative - it will sell in droves.

Im sure that Bentley will be mourning the loss of a potential sale for years to come.

This is a yardstick for the shameful position humanity has arrived at. It's utterly dreadful, yet people our children admire will end up buying it and further perpetrating the awfulness.

It has literally no redeeming features to my eyes, other than being a good bit of mechanical engineering.
It's certainly a bellweather for some social ills. I wouldn't worry about the children though as its crap parenting that leads children to ever thinking these cretinous creatures are of any credible value and if a child has crap parents then it has larger issues than thinking that spitting on the street, speaking gibberish and wanting to drive a car best left to genocidal tin pot generals are prudent routes to gainful employment and a happy life. biggrin

I love SUVs and I like Bentley but this product appears to have crossed the Rubicon.

I think I should see Bentley for copying my ideas without paying me.... That looks identical to a photoshop render I did of the original concept car to make it more tasteful:

If I was Chrysler, I'd be rushing out a Mk1 Merc ML based 300C faced crock of tat and cashing in on the inevitable confusion.

No, I was just listing all the 12 cyl SUV's that have ever been created. Of the 5 I can think of, 3 of them have a VAG badge.

And what with Lambo being a VAG brand these days, there is a tenuous link for a 4th example with the LM002. wink
Just wait until we get to see the Lamborghini Lambozo ;-)

So after 5 pages of ranting, I think we can conclude that the name suits the vehicle almost perfectly.

This is all I hear when I see that name:


They'll sell shiploads of them here in America. Where I live, I'm sure I won't be able to go out of the house without seeing at least one.

I love how the marketing people are quoting natural places as the inspiration for the name of a two-tonne-plus SUV powered by a twin-turbo 12-cylinder! hehe

If fuel prices stay what they are (~$2.00 per U.S.-gallon or less than 35p per Litre, if I did my math correctly), it won't matter, anyway.
