That's an impressive amount of rear steer. |

Quite a few differences on the real one to this.... This is clearly the awkward child of Sport / Evoque / Velar.

Looks the same as the old one - so not really a new model - was hoping for something fresh and exciting as that body shape is starting to look a bit tired. 07MY RRS TDV6

Hardly surprising these days Gary as they all seem to come out the same L/R corporate Jelly Mould.

Not much they can do if the RRS is supposed to be the sporty RR. It's always going to look like in terms of overall shape. What else can they do? It's always going to be a bonnet and then a big lump of cabin with a slope down to the rear. Any more slope to the roofline and the rear seats would be unusable. Other than that, it's corporate styling to the front and rear valances / lights. It's the same as all other car makers - Audi, BMW, Mercedes, etc., all have the same problem - they're all just big boxes with a big bonnet up front. Then it's just corporate styling that differentiates them. 2012 SDV6 - it's missing a couple of cylinders 2008 TDV8 - it was a labour of love and is much missed |
