The wifes cousin - yes he's in tarmac and has a tow bar on the back of his.

If you're struggling to think of a Christmas present for him this year perhaps some SPF50 would be an idea. eek
Or a voucher for a burns unit rehab centre, how did he burn in a T-shirt shape plus his head ? Did he have a set of those fake tattoo sleeves on ???

To be fair if you were in the business of stealing industrial equipment can’t think of a better car for escaping at speed with a trailer. It’s got enough poke.

It’s good to see one being used.
The Bentayga must be approaching max towing weight with that load on the trailer.

Probably not. It’s towing limit is 3500kg, and that lot is probably half that. I would assume that a lot of owners use them for towing horse boxes, and horses are not light animals.

I had a chat with Rolls-Royce about the Cullinan
I saw one of those on the road the other day for the first time - it looked like a mansion on wheels with that enormous portico on the front.

I think they look great,

One of my neighbours works for RR, he gets to bring cars home, one of which is a Cullinan in a lovely shade of red, but with the grill in black, it looks a lot better

No, I've definitely seen a pub before. They're everywhere!

that's the one. It hasn't been here this week but there have been about 4 different cars this week from the regular fleet, Ghots, Phantoms, Wraiths.. he has worked himself into a good position, clearly, to be permitted to drive them home.

I'd take the Cullinan over the Bentayga. Towing a digger behind it would look possibly more impressive.

A london taxi towing a digger would look very impressive.

Much less expensive but I have used my Cayenne S for trailering other cars from new,often over very long distances. Delighted to see the owner taking advantage of the capabilities of the vehicle.

Same here. I’d probably put it duties towing a rib instead though

I've seen a pink one towing a caravan in the Highlands of Scotland before

Obviously I’m not towing but I am astonished to get 15mpg on my 5 mile city centre commute. It’s more economical than my diesel Rangey was.

Noooo, trailer is about 750kg before any load, digger is 1.5t, compy another 500kg or so. Not far off 3t all up.

You seem to be looking for issues with the combination.

If it has the V8 diesel then it probably gets 30mpg when towing, like I do with a similar combination (same platform tractor hauling a track day car and trailer).

If it has the W12 then I suspect the owner doesn't care what the mpg is. In the cost of running the car it's probably small potatoes.
