I'm currently someone who runs old barges, driving my Lexus LS460 as a daily and then invest my money in the fun cars.

For my daily drivers I love a luxury interior, with nice high quality touch points. I also like adaptive cruise control.

I also like to remain anonymous, for example the perfect car would be a Bentley Bentayga, but I feel parking a Bentley in a multi-story in Letchworth is just going to attract the wrong type of attention. I like being able to just bung my cars in anywhere and not have to worry.

There is no budget for this one as the cheaper the better.

My initial thoughts are either an S-class coupe or a Range Rover Autobiography SV

This absolutely is the answer (if in black)



Looks like a London taxi.

I could de-badge it and put a Dacia badge on it...

Skoda Superb L&K 272 or 280 AWD hatch.

Looks like a taxi. Quick enough (5.4 to 60). All the toys.

I have one. Anonymous Q car.

Rare enough to attract attention I'd suggest.

My guess would be a debadged A8 or even better a Phaeton.

Aren't they over £100k?

Not much saving for the fun cars.

W12 engined VW phaeton for me, most non petrol heads will just see an old Passat.

More expensive than they were but probably much cheaper than you're planning to spend?

Certainly anonymous. Nobody will know what it is!

Nice executive car but no way is that a luxury car like the type the OP wants.

The Range Rover might attract more attention than a gen 1 Flying Spur, which basically resembles a stretched Rover 75.

Or if you win the lottery I doubt local pond life would give the Lagonda Taraf a second glance

Honda Legend - looks just like an accord/mini cab but with a 3.5V6 and 4WD. Similar inside to a Lexus LS.

Apparently goes round a racetrack in similar times to a S2000 sportscar (not sure I believe that) due to the trick 4WD system.

I nearly bought one, but only 17mpg around town put me off.

Maybe a Jaguar XF or Maserati Quattroporte would work?
