Last time I was in London Mayfair I saw this Rolls Royce and I immediately thought that it was out of scale with the other cars on the street.
FWIW I don't want one. I think it is hideously ugly and vulgar. And it's in OO.

I like the way it is taller than the van parked behind. Why would anyone want to driven in something that size in London while struggling to find a parking space that it fits in?
We seem to be in something of a boom time for uglification consultants in the motor industry.

If you can afford one of those, you can afford to park it wherever you want, whether there's a space there or not.
If I had paid the price of a house for a car I would be very careful where I parked it
And of course it has a personalised numberplate: B1ACK
Not as good as the soft top BMW I saw driven by a blonde which was M1LPH (mother I'd like to phone home) :laugh3:

Oh very eagle eyed. Well done that man!
Best plate on a Roller was Paul Raymond's FU2

Surely the best personalised Roller is FAB1...
Since when did Rolls Royce rip of Range Rovers? That's the ugliest Roller I have ever seen.
Ooh I'm considering a new big car as the trusty old Sorento is 14 years old now. I could easily get my layout or my gigging drum kit in the back of that :)
At one time prestige cars such as Rolls Royce had understated elegance. Nowadays they have overstated arrogance. This change also applies to many of their customers.

Many years ago when on a business trip to Manchester, I was passed on the M62 by a blond lass in a BMW convertible with the number plate M1 NGE and she'd pushed it all together. Brazen, or what?
