Rover P6 or XJ6 or Silver Shadow?

[Huntsman]

The marvellous new BV72 addition has me wondering.

I've had two rover P6's, said at the time to be a better drive that the contemporary XJ6, plus, I'm in the process of putting a Silver Shadow back on the road.

Which has the softest ride? I'm overwhelmed with the desire to have the most comfy, absorbing, detached from the road set of wheels.

Have you tried a DS?

No, I haven't. Been admiring them from a far for a while.

Looking forward to getting the Shadow on the road to see how it compares. Both the P6 V8 auto I had and the Shadow I now have are 1974 cars. Both V8. Both auto. The P6 was an amazing car.

The Shadow is silky smooth in the ride department, but compared to the XJ it's just an ungainly barge of a thing.

Actually, that sounds right up my street.

Perhaps I should pay more attention to the Citroen DS.
