Finally traded out the old 3.0 XFS and picked up RR
Lucky to get a factory special with lots of toys :)

Has unusual Silicone silver paint. 240hp motor on a 9 speed box. £10k of extras over a stock HSE model, from premium leather, black pack, 20’ rims, meridian system, etc and managed to get it at 6 month old main dealer

Drives really well which is a bonus :)

My boss has just picked up a spanking new one of those. 8) It's huge parked next to my Zed. Great target for the gulls to practice their bombing runs on too. :lol:

I loved the Jag too, but had looked at the same dash for 7 years..sometimes you need a change. This can also tow 2 tonnes so can move my Jeep’s around Europe again without MOT or worries of knocking the odd wheel off
Buzyg- yes, bigger than the Zed for sure, but small by standards of some of the LR range and other marques

Lol - if I had a Roller I’d be delighted. I could sell it and pocket a lot of money. Wouldn’t be seen dead driving one, as beautifully engineered as they are...

A family member has one too and has had nothing but issues with it when new, fortunately it was under warranty otherwise the costs would have been eye watering! Its been ok for a few years since so hopefully they have ironed out the issues now.

Car looks great OP enjoy, they do drive very well for how big they are.
