Gotta love Gordon's lightweight/packaging ethos, but hanging the space-saver off the back? Hmmm...

I just heard a really loud car while I was out at lunch. I turned round expecting to see a modified Golf, no it's a bright green Urus. The same as this (you all know what they look like anyway)

These are my guilty pleasure cars. I have no need for an SUV, (I cant afford a Urus in any case) The Audi RSQ8 looks more discreet and is pretty similar. I'm not a footballer. I imagine running costs are significant. I know that a FFRR/RRS, Cayenne Turbo or X5M are better cars. And I know ALL luxury SUVs are a bit of a thief magnet

But I could imagine owning one when I finally win my Millions. Maybe Dark Blue/Grey with black wheels...

And fair play to you. If I was going for a luxury SUV the Lamborghini brand has a lot going for it.

Hardly the worst bit of the car but that lower rear wing is hilariously bad

I saw this beauty driving on the road near me this afternoon. Second time I've seen it, but the first time I've managed to clock the number plate.

Not my pic as I was otherwise preoccupied with conveying myself along the road in the opposite direction...



Sold for £700k at Goodwood Revival in Sept this year - https://cars.bonhams.com/auction/27998/lot/252/197...

The best thing I saw however was a Lamborghini with a crook lock on the steering wheel but couldn’t get a photo, it looked odd on a car like that for some reason.

I look at this and think - Hmm, previous Civic Type R isn’t that bad!

It just looks so wrong with that square number plate design. Like a 80s Japanese import.

I always find that bizarre, that you spend six figures on a car and then feel the need to put a £50 lock on it. Surely any self respecting Lambo thief is going to be deterred by a crook lock?

Function over form - no space between the fan and the diffuser for anything else.

Not sure I could ever see myself lining up to purchase one of these.
For me, first and foremost, a special car starts with its looks and this is challenging to say the least.

Each to their own.

I'd give my left testicle for one of these. Looks are distinctive, and far from ugly (exhibit A being the Urus), the sound in the videos is sublime, and it's been designed to be as analog as possible in the modern age, majoring on engagement not top-trumps. I can imagine it would be so much more of an event to drive than anything currently being flogged by the usual Italian brands.
