You may not like it but calling people names doesn't make the fact you don't like it anymore valid than mine & I do like it.Your wallowy ill handling muscle cars aren't for me but I can see why people like them in the same way there are people that like Morris Minors.
It is a bit ott, but so is a normal Phantom, I like a bit of variety and so many Phantoms tend to be sober looking things so it’s good to see a variations, and people won’t think you are Alan Sugar as that is what I always assume when I see a Phantom.
I think some get upset on an aesthetic basis and I can see that, it’s subjective. It seems to be tempered with a subtext of disapproval that the owner possibly isn’t a traditional “establishment” type to whom they feel like they should doff their cap, tug their forelock and say “gawd bless you sir”, but it may be some young upstart oik who made money through sport, music, tech or instagram, and that upsets the natural order, how dare they express themselves on a Rolls Royce, the very idea !
Get over it, the world has changed, well, a bit, john Lennon was pissing off old grumps in a similar manner fifty years ago.
