Yes the rear legroom is very impressive (and this is with the rear seat in the reclined position) but…. what do you do with it all? :?

It's so you don't have to spend so much on your PA's neck and knee problems ;)

I really hope that the rear screens aren't touchscreens or you would need to be Mr Tickle to operate them.

It appears to have an I-drive style knob and possibly a track pad in the centre arm rest

Not sure I’ve seen an L405 in this bright red before. It stood out so much I had to take a photo:

Back in the days of 3.9 EFI Vogue SE there was a BRG a dark metallic blue and a similar red that were popular options.

I remember the sadness when visiting a well heeled mate and his Mum had got rid of her very cool orange Scimitar and got a brand new RR in the blue.

His first car was a SWB LR in black though, brand new...

I have seen the odd genesis model knocking about and not sure that the ID twin strip lights work on any of their models, certainly not for me.

RR buyers were more bold with their colour choices with the L405 than the greys, silvers and blacks every L322 seemed to be in.

My father’s Disco Sport is metallic red and I thought it was the same, but it’s not; this RR was almost glowing despite the weather being overcast. It wasn’t the same colour as I’ve seen before on LR products.

Silver S1 Exige on the A1. Struck me that it's been a long time since I saw one on the road, looked great.

I've finally seen a M3 Touring but it had the nasty vertical style M sport exhaust :|

Also a new Flying Spur which had the lovely Ainsley Harriott in it :lol:
How about not having a sig at all?
