interesting BUT an obscene amount of money some have

I mean who spends £20,000 on a picnic hamper attachment

[PAUL BEAUMONT]

Presumably the person who spent £1000000 on the rest of the diamond encrusted monstrosity!

Ugly cars. I live close to the factory and see them on test drives regularly.
The car finance company I worked for used to do bentleys every so often. Also obscenely expensive. One had a dvd player in the back, £3500. Seemed excessive, I can't remember how much the wine cooler was. They also used to do maintenance included contracts, a Ferrari had a new steering rack, £5500. I don't approve of people who have vast amounts of other people's cash.
There is a company near here that does metal spraying etc. They had a bare RR body in there which presumably needed some rework to the galvanising, it was quite an impressive sight, huge and shiny

The oldest RR's are nice to look at, but once they had overseas influences all that's long gone ~ ugly cars as you say Peter

[petermeachem]

they remind me of Lady Penelope's car but with fewer wheels
