Car appreciation... the aesthetics, the engineering, etc

Not sure - what happened to the prices of Saab cars? Would something similar happen in the years to come perhaps

But Saab folded entirely - and the later ones they made were a lot less desirable anyway weren’t they? I’m pretty sure spares will still be available for Volvo stuff as I imagine there will be plenty common parts with the cars they are producing.

Who knows though.

Yep. My MIL has a newish XC40 and it’s shit - gutless and like steering a boat. Took me ages to figure out how to start it too 😂

shame that. fuck all these awful SUVs

100% agree. very disappointing from volvo

Volvo died shortly after ford bought them and stole all the little Volvo good bits.

Maserati, Ferrari and Lamborghini all SUV cop-outs.

and Bentley

Is there a Rolls Royce one too, or did I imagine that?

But they sell.

So maybe we are the odd ones.

Who own RR again?

ah yeah - the same ones who make the ugliest cars of the current era...

One day that will be classed a classic shape.

Ferrari won't call it an 'SUV' though ;)

Purosang aint got nutin on my Qashqai. (Ok maybe minute of so) Flex.

What is suv in latin

Genitalia feminina mobilis.

Ugh... Wrote a medium length post and deleted it 😐

Tl;dr these look classy irl, and are true to RR's ethos. Basically the opposite to the Bentley.

I beg to differ. they look just like any other giant 3-ton SUV

This says it all for me. One is 160K one is 24k.

That's 8 times as much for less fuel economy, guaranteed attempted burglary and a tiny bit more space.

look super gaudy to me. a world apart from the rolls royce heritage

RR's ethos

What does that matter when you look like a planet killing cunt?

The 'planet killing' part was strictly unnecessary. In order to amass the wealth to buy that monstrosity the owner has almost certainly pre-qualified.

I guess it's all mostly aerodynamics, but SUVs all seem to look the same knowing what their make is. That said, I think the Roller is worse than most on the list below
