What utter bastardisation of a fabulous motor vehicle. I remember passing a similar atrocity on the M4 about 10 years ago, it was based on a RR Silver Shadow.

Still they wouldn't be in business unless there were enough wealthy tasteless morons in the world.

The Silver Shadow was probably built by:

www.jankel.co.uk

But they have moved out of just modifying Rolls Royces to full amour protection (they are even licenced to supply machine guns) and have some of their own platforms.

Ah the Jankel Tempest, quite possibly the ugliest Corvette in history.

Pages/links above don't seem to be working but are they as tacky as these?

a gentleman drives the bentley himself.
the chauffeur brings the luggage in the rolls royce.

they could have painted it BR Green.
so why a shooting brake. (estate)
harold radford used to do these conversions on 1950s bentleys and rolls royces but much more ellegently.

It carries on a rich tradition of Bentley Wagons, if it makes the owner happy great.
