Oh I love the 70ies and 80ies BMW's! Was looking for a 5 series before deciding on the Alfa.
Production of the Bentley Mulsanne is about to end. This Mulliner special edition will also be the very last Bentley with the 6.75L V8.
You can have the interior in any color you like.
I agree with the Bentayga not being "handsome", even though I think the RR Cullinan is even uglier. But Bentley sells incredibly well and AM is struggling to survive. Many "troo" AM fans dislike the DBX btw.
The Lamborghini Urus is not a particularly beautiful car either, but there's a waiting list already.
Both of you can do the math.
It's not the colour: it's the design. Blingy with shiny metal everywhere and every surface overdesigned. It seems tasteless to me.
Of course, just like what happened to Porsche, but it's not the fans that buy the cars, it's the people that have the money. And taste and money only go hand in hand in a very small percentage of the population.
Yes indeed, these guys know their market and it’s probably not the guys who wear ‘Aston Martin Racing’ Hackett tops! :D
(Although they are horrible so it may well be ;) )
Even a pink interior is possible haha.
The DBX has about 1800 preorders, I really hope that it'll save the brand.
As you know, I've never been a big fan of Porsche, but I do like the Macan. The first generation Cayenne is one of the ugliest cars ever made imho.
And nobody should ever listen only to their fans.

I'm afraid it's bit late for the armoured car.....
but I agree completely.
I would post the 'shots fired' meme, but I feel that might be deeply innapropriate.
:-?
But I guess you can still own cheaper Bond cars by looking at Z3s.
The Z3's biggest problem was that it was woefully underpowered. And my God, is the coupe ugly or what...
Yesterday I was driving behind a new 640d. One of the few BMW models I actually like.
Talking of not-so-expensive Bond cars, why not try and find one of those gorgeous Alfa Romeo GTV6’s from Octopussy?
I love that one:
You can find one with 230bhp no problem; that seems plenty of power for a little car like that to me. The main problem I understand is that it didn’t handle very well. I’m sure they’re great value for what they are though, and are becoming the go to car to base kit cars on recently.
Well if you want to spend heaps of money on maintaining it....... There's a reason why they're not expensive. And this coming from an alfa driver...
tbh I'd definately go for it if I had a garage. Without a garage they rot before your eyes I'm afraid.
I'm aware of Alfa's bad reputation, especially during the seventies & eighties.
But it's a cool car. ;) ;))
Just a slight stiffness coming on. Beautiful car. It's also one of the most underrated car chases in the entire franchise, IMO.
I’m a bit nervous about how much the DB5 looks to be sliding in NTTD in fact: Bond appears to have got worse at driving...
Oh it is! The guy I bought my alfa from has one. He bought it in the eighties, he's had to repaint it several times, he's had to replace almost all the body work and now only drives it when it's a dry and sunny day. But when he does, he loves it immensely.
OP is quite underrated indeed. :-?
The Hamster has got a new ride.
