    Circa 1974-1976 Silver Shadow; Correct except for wiper blades and wrong-size tires (so not bad!).

    Silver Cloud II; Like most Silver Clouds and Bentley S-series cars in America, this one is highly incorrect! Where to begin...?

    The biggest issue (and hardest/most expensive to fix) would be that this particular motorcar has been repainted in an incorrect shade of white! The fine line on the waist and bonnet sides has been incorrectly done, the tires are incorrect, and the wipers are incorrect.

    This mid-1980s Silver Spur is correct according to my friend (and my friend is never wrong when comes to Rolls-Royces and Bentleys), except for the fact that the owner didn't clean their tires!

    Too funny. I would trip over that shift lever and face-plant every time I stepped out of that thing.

    For the first time ever, I've found a Camargue for sale on eBay! The steering wheel is incorrect and the car in general is very tired, but it's not the worst I've seen...

    Some people on TW may know about my not-so-secret love of Rolls-Royce and Bentley motorcars. I am a member of a Rolls-Royce and Bentley group on Facebook, and I came across this. Somebody photoshopped a picture of the upcoming Cullinan SUV to look like a pickup. As if the Cullinan wasn't ugly enough, the result looks like a Honda Ridgeline with a Rolls-Royce front clip, or in simple terms...

    This is what the real Cullinan looks like...

    Exactly...

    As if the new Ridgeline isn't ugly enough and the BMW-built Rolls-Royces aren't a big enough to disgrace to their lineage!

    The SUV boom is slowly killing sedans and coupes. I never could understand the point of a slightly raised front drive based car being a "utility vehicle..." try and take it off road if you want to.

    This is technically the second "SUV boom". The first was in the 1990s, or maybe SUVs have been booming all along...?

    Well the first one actually gave us useful products... truck based vehicles you could actually say had utility... now for example they take a Sonic, raise it a few inches, give it all wheel drive, and call it a Trax. It's a compact hatchback with a lift.

    Because of this it prompted a respectable luxury car company to feel it needs to do the same... raise a Phantom and call it Cullinan. Still a sedan at heart.

    THAT is my point.

    Ford killed it's entire sedan lineup because everybody wants glorified hatchbacks instead of a good quality sedan. I' gonna miss the sedan. R.I.P.

    Rolls-Royce has not been "respectable" since about 2003...

    I tried to give them a little credit. BMW has driven them in the wrong direction...
