wouldn't want to get rid of my 3200, I love her to bits - so Ill be staying quite firmly with the marque.

I can imagine a few things fitting in there quite nicely

I hate the Phantom, so chav.

 

[nfm]

I am of the opposite view, to me it really is the pinnacle of luxury motoring. To be chav it should be driven by chavs and that tends not to be the case - the chavs all drive Bentleys, a brand that is at real risk of going down the Burberry route.

For the ultimate chav try the Maybach - had a good look at it at Goodwood - hideous....

Just an alternative view!!

Cheers

The Maybach is the worst, it is a Geneva taxi with a bit of chinse, i saw loads of them last year at mercedes benz world broolands, they all had curtains in the back, reminded me of a caravan.

The Flying Spur is a nice car, the Roller Phantom Coupe is the worst, that is soo ugly and costs 400K.

 

[cowsurgeon]

Bentley or not - I've had my eye on this as a project for a wee while!

Nothing wrong with many old Bentleys, that looks very smart - I am very much talking about the moderns and the clientele they attract.

I think someone once said that any Ferrari made after the 60s was vulgar. I don't completely agree (red and cream 430 drop head certainly) but I can understand where they were coming from

 

[GransportFan1]

Dont like old Bentley's or Jags or Astons, to be honest, not a massive british car fan, shame on me.

Not the original Aston Zagato?? To me one of the most beautiful cars ever made............

 

[chippiepilot]

ahh yes the db4 Zagato a lovely looking machine

That's the one and very nice it is too..................

 

[chippiepilot]

like you mentioned on another thread/forum shame they can't come up with style like this nowadays (ok there are exceptions) EU regulations and requirements. I sometimes get my fix for these cars by looking at Octane magazine (certainly in the days of Borders in Glasgow City Centre)

no, 250 GTO and 275 GTS for me thanks. The only British car maker i really like is Lotus.

Ginetta? Like Lotus without the marketing department.

F400 - takes your breath away!!

you being sarcastic or for real, if you say Lotus are not great cars Andy will cry.

 

[Emtee]

Adam, Not being sarcastic at all! I have a great admiration for (though I admit no emotional attachment to) Lotus, but have you seen the Ginettas? The perfect love-child of Lotus and TVR. Mark my words, this marque is coming good.
