Summary
What does this car say about you?
Big problem now. London is a no no. Don't make eye contact with pedestrians or drivers of small cars. Getting embarressing to drive now and difficult to justify even if you live in the depths of the countryside as I do
What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?
Family like the comfort, friends dont say anything.
Would you buy this car again and why?
No. Never buy one out of warrantty.Manufacturors warrantty that is and make sure there is enough for the time you want to own the vehicle. Be prepared for horrendous depreciation. Fuel consumption 23 mph
What are you likely to buy next?
not a RR thats for sure

Franchise

No

£40,000
When did you buy the car?
November 2005
Did you get a good deal and why?
Not a great deal as they had sold the the previous RR which had lost a kings ransom.But I was assured the new model really held its price, that is until I bought one of course
Is there any special reason why you bought this car?
owned previous model(petrol) always liked RR.
What was the dealer like?
Sales Dept very good. Service Dept pretty indifferent . Work done. In some case took an age. Went in for work came out two weeks later and a day later the same problems back again. Not impressed.

Driving it
What's it like to drive?
great visability,comfortable you feel safe. handles well on the road not as much roll as the old model.
What's it like to park?
not problems to park except you are always looking for a space that is bigger so that people parking next to you dont bang their doors on yours. All those flat panels are tempting fate in the dent dept.
-
Living with it
Have you had any problems with the car?
Parking sensors. Strange noises from within the dash board. Motors making rather sad noises. Other niggles.
What's most practical about your car?
Well its not go anywhere thats for sure. One day there were five new model RR ,I was one of them and we were all buried in a field. loads of people pushing and denting the tailgates whilst a Daihatsu four track ran circles around us.
Favourite gadget, option or accessory?
Its got all the whistles. Heated steering wheel a bit OTT but i loved it.
