I'm left wondering how the design team must feel after such a global thumbs down.
From people who can’t afford it, won’t ever be able to afford it and don’t particularly understand its purpose ?
I imagine they won’t be shedding too many tears.
One of my clients recently bought a Chiron. Then he bought a Wraith. Then a new Range Rover for his wife. Then he bought a Bentayga.
In a month.
For his ‘UK’ house he is at 2 months a year.

I bet he shops in Lidl right?No he'll be far to busy staying under the radar, paying a small collection of employees to congratulate him every 5 mins.
I don't imagine the general public care that owners like that don't care.
The car is still fugly
and the wealthy will still spaff over it because they'll see their wealth increase by owning it.
If I was that was THAT wealthy, I'd still be very content that I'd have more style than anyone who buys one of these to shove into dry storage.
Hell even at my current stage of wealth I'm content that I have more style

“Rich people who know nothing about design will buy it therefore you can’t critique the design.”One of my clients recently bought a Chiron. Then he bought a Wraith. Then a new Range Rover for his wife. Then he bought a Bentayga.

Okay then. What the hell kind of weak argument is that lol.

He most certainly won't care what other people think of him... I mean he wouldn't want anyone to know he's really really rich would he, having all those cars in a country he's hardly in I bet he shops in Lidl right?
No he'll be far to busy staying under the radar, paying a small collection of employees to congratulate him every 5 mins.

It's good to see you're not bitter either......... I bet he shops in Lidl right?No he'll be far to busy staying under the radar, paying a small collection of employees to congratulate him every 5 mins.

I see.
Assume your opinions are all based in aesthetics rather than dynamics ?
That said I don't want a pig in a dress either.
McLaren have yet to make a car that isn't top drawer dynamically...
Then again....not many blue blood performance cars fail to deliver dynamically of they.... they'll have minor strengths and weaknesses here or there...but when you splashing the cash, brand loyalty, perceived build quality, brand status and looks are really the only signifiers that'll make the owner 'feel' better/worse/indifferent....
That feeling is very powerful (to me anyway)
I want to feel warm and fuzzy when I see the car on the drive.....as well as being engaged when I drive it.
If I'm feeling nauseous before I've gotten in it.....s'not good is it...
And if I was going for out and out track weaponry regardless of looks... well there is a much larger field to play in there...

always good to have a time honoured fall back quip... congrats.... if only it were true Just let everyone know what I drive and therefore know nothing, and you'll be done right?
Or...maybe suggest its school holidays?
I'm not jealous of anyone.
I do however have lots of envy for people with nice cars.
But they'd have to be my kind of nice for that to happen.... which happily in this case won't apply
