Ther is something thats not right about the design of the rear of the new RR, same thing affects the nem MINI, could they be designed by the same guy at BMW?, discos CRVs Xtrails all look in proportion , but the RR is just wrong. The early RR mk2 had the look of a black cab but it seemed to get sorted later in life. Any idea whats amiss or am I the only one thats finds it awkward?

The problem for RR's has always been that Spen King's original design was almost impossible to improve on, with the result that every edition since has been a retrograde step! Like the X5, the new would look plain silly on the sort of tyres it would need to drive off-road, so what's the point?
