OK so RR have competition....

(a) Entirely derivative (suppose that's the point), and, (b) a Jaguar XK.

The irony in my statement obviously didn't come across.... Pete

The wheels completely kill it for me.

They stand way too far out. Make it look like a bad Japanese attempt rather than a bespoke British design.

And look at the side view. Doesn't the rear wheel look a bit too far back? It's not central.

And the door mirrors are way too large.

The rear light surrounds look odd, to my eyes at least. No elegance. Far too much brightwork.

Not my bag, I'm afraid. Si. <This is my name.

I eat rat poison.

A man ain't truly been insulted until he stands buck naked in front of a woman and she didn't even notice. Or care.

I absolutely love it - right from the first photo I saw. I think it's stunning and I'd love to have one. Unfortunately, they make a brand new L405 LWB look cheap. Big Cry

As well as a wonderful looking car, I really like the idea of coach building a new style onto a car. It seems that, with their 3D printing, that small volume cars like this are possible. I hope it's a manufacturing idea that catches on as it could lead to a bunch of interesting cars in the future.

The idea of a fully sorted XK with dealer support underneath sounds like a great idea come servicing time.

Can only agree 100%...it looks like a poor attempt to try and emulate a classic and it fails on so many fronts..and backs..and sides Laughing SDV8 AB MY 2019

For some its perfect. However much money you have driving even a perfect classic DB5 or similar on a regular basis is a pain in the but. Here you have great classic style and modern engine, cabin and running gear. Great idea if you have the cash Thumbs Up
