From that 1 photo it's not looking promising.

That does not look much taller than the Phantom. I'll wait to see the whole car before passing judgement. I'm not even sure what size it is meant to be - bigger then the Phantom or slotting between the Ghost and the Phantom?

Looking like a product their archive department is already lying in a dark room with damp towels on their foreheads at the prospect of having to dedicate space to.
From that first image I can only say in my best Enid Blyton voice “what a horrid thing.”

It doesn’t look as bad as I expected, but it’s difficult to tell from that picture, need to see the rest.

It will probably sell well in middle eastern states but it really isn't an attractive car.

With all those inlets and black grilles at the front it looks a bit cheap and mainstream to me. The best RRs are the current and recent Phantom and those built before WW2.

Maybe the forthcoming X7 is only being released to deflect criticism away from this?
"Urgh, look how horrid that new Rolls Royce is."
"You've obviously never seen its ugly sister?"

It looks dated already. A missed opportunity.

It does look like someone has Rollsed a 1994 Range Rover.

I was going to say that it looks like an oil magnate's custom jobbie. Horrible.

That's a horrible looking car. I thought they might do something creative but that's pretty much exactly what you'd expect them to do. The rear three quarters shape reminds me of something and I can't place what. I think the silhouette has shades of a Panda Sisley but obviously it's as classy as the Fiat.

Rear 3/4 has a hint of Mk1 Cayenne I think.
Same goes for the Bentgayer too.

The front and back to the B pillars looks way better than I expected. But then after the B pillars it all goes wrong - looking ungainly, bulbous and incredibly clumsy. The two definitive luxury SUV looks are the Range Rover and the G Wagon. Nobody else can get close to those icons. Everything else is just tacky in the attempt.

At least as far as the current line-up goes. I could just about stomach a Ghost or the drop-head Wraith. But the coupe Wraith looks like a squashed steam locomotive and the Phantom range all look like blinged-up WW2 anti-tank bunkers on wheels. And this Cullinan thingy looks like someone reversed a bob-tailed Rangie through a Swarovski boutique. |

My brother described this monstrosity as reminding him of the British Leyland Vanden Plas versions of the Allegro and 1300. I thinks he has it right. The RR grille on the front of this makes it look just as ridiculous.

It's a Rolls, they've never been the most tasteful looking cars. I like the baby one,I think it’s very classy ,but the phantom is ‘move out of my way,peasant !’ And this suv could be the ugliest thing on the road. |
