    Love the rear facing observation deck. Pop the champagne, set the tray with hors d'œuvre and look down at all the peasants walking by indecision

    I can just see it now bringing the Rolls to the parking lot tailgating parties before the games and do it in style Smiley​​​​​​

    Re: Rolls Royce Cullinan

    Great for tailgating at Chiefs games and duck hunting. Not to mention airing the kids out on the highway after a long day at the State fair. What speeds are those rear facing seats good for?  US highway speeds should not be a problem.

    Lazy, shitty designers. I could probably lead the design team at RR and accomplish just as much.

    They are almost as predictable as your posts.(which I appreciate and welcome) Consistency sells. Branding is everything. 

     


    Re: Rolls Royce Cullinan

    Egads.  The wheels look too small in the front quarter side view.   How large is this thing?

    Ferrari has branding. Lamborghini has branding.

    This is just if I asked my ese south of the border to lift my RR.


    Re: Rolls Royce Cullinan

    Since we all here love cars, Im wondering how the heck this is possible, one of the ugliest things I have evere seen, why did the germans aprove this thing, why did the germans obbligate RR to do such a cayonero....this is embarassing for RR. I hope they will sell 0 and put it out of production asap

    Re: Rolls Royce Cullinan

    I'm fine with it. It's in keeping with the recent RR aesthetic. Now, a Ferrari SUV, that I can't wrap my head around...

    Re: Rolls Royce Cullinan

    I like it, a lot actually. Another squared car is what the industry needs in this segment after years and years of "coupeization" of the lines and "chineseization" of the overall designs. G-class check; old Range Rover check; Cullinan check. Imho this is how a proper SUV should be shaped.

    What could be wrong with the design? Rolls is all about tradition, its characteristic front grill, huge dimensions, boxed design. It wasn't difficult imagine what the Brits were gonna come with, that's true, but that's precisely what's appealing for their loyal customers.


    Re: Rolls Royce Cullinan

    I like it. Perfect for the Middle East

    Ah yes, where would we be without the peasantry??  I believe a few come with the vehicle as a starter kit. Smiley

    Agree. The equestrian stirrup inspired footrests are just so...

     


    Re: Rolls Royce Cullinan

    Come to think of it, that diamond patterned cover looks so much like a horse blanket too.

     


    Re: Rolls Royce Cullinan

    The video previews of the Cullinan are out. Journalists are having a tough task of not saying anything that would upset RR. This might be the worst car of 2018, and given the price, maybe worst ever produced!


    Re: Rolls Royce Cullinan

    I cannot agree with you more. This is exactly the point.

    I hav e to admit, since I love the germans, that after the adolf...theu suv trend set by them is the worst thing on earth.....ahahahahahah if RR still where English they would not have done this thing. On the other hand maybe r

    RR was now bankrupt without BMW

    Re: Rolls Royce Cullinan

    Can't wait to see this abomination in real life pictures next to human beings and other cars. The RR was already nearly as tall as an SUV. Now they lifted it LOL


    Re: Rolls Royce Cullinan

    This is beyond tasteless - will no doubt appeal to an imperious demographic where even a Bentayga won’t do... and that car has to be the ultimate automotive abomination to curse what’s left of this green earth.

    Yuck.

    I don't think its as bad as that ! I've been consistent in saying its really hard to make any of these huge SUVs look good and Cullinan is no exception. The key here will be what the ride is like and whether it can pull off the dual utility function and have the classic `Rolls limo feel in the back whilst not swaying from side to side in a bend. No doubt the depreciation on it will be epic in most markets.


    Re: Rolls Royce Cullinan

    But Range Rovers look good, no?

    I don't see why Rolls Royce or Bentley can't just design something new and stick their badge on it. I really don't think they're afraid of trying something new, but rather it's just cheaper and easier to copy/paste.

    I won't argue with it from a business perspective, but there is nothing praiseworthy about what they're doing. A plain and simple money grab led by the accounting and marketing departments.

    Yep  - I've always said they are the benchmark in terms of looks.

    Concur and even Lincoln and Cadillac are better proportioned than this Rolls Royce.  However, Rolls Royce's history is filled with flamboyant, eccentric designs, so this seems rather keeping with its heritage.  


    Re: Rolls Royce Cullinan

    Doesn't look so bad in the photos available on the RR web site

    Re: Rolls Royce Cullinan

    Looks perfectly fine in the official pictures and especially in the video, its how a Rolls SUV should look like. Not my type but looks like it will have great presense on the road. That said it looses some of the elegance the normal Rolls have in this format, or maybe I was infkuenced by that video... what kind of clients are they trying to attract? rusian mobsters and rappers?
