I know on paper the EcoBoost is better.... I’m just remaining to be convinced if it will be as good in reality. I love the styling on the new truck, I haven’t seen if the panoramic roof will be available but would love that if it was, and I love the 10 speed gearbox... but I’m just very hesitant about the engine.

It’s actually telling of just how luxurious they are when they are made of aluminium and still weigh as much as an F150 Raptor. The sheer size of them and all that insulation adds up. Imagine if they were made of steel?

I prefer the Coupe with a strong B-pillar and wrap around rear glass... like this photoshop I prepared earlier. Wouldn’t be that hard to do as a coachbuild either - as the complicated bit of the side glass remains unchanged. The way the pillarless windows seal up doesn’t need to be touched at all.

I think perhaps this is some trick to help with the CAFE ratings. For example: the New Ford Focus now gets 100 mpg*
*When using the included mono-pod scooter for 75% of your commute.

Also - Ford - why are you putting resources on this when the Mustang hasn’t got the glass roof yet?

The reactions to our 1959 and 1929 Cadillac suggest otherwise :-) Plus like the Cadillacs - Rolls Royce is a brand that still exists. Few people my age (31) would know what a Duesenberg or Packard is though.

Love these... particularly like their extended cabs and crew cabs. A Crew Cab 4 door with a shorter bed would be an amazing machine :)

And that’s exactly why if it’s got ridiculously awesome doors that open upwards - there needs to be an alternate way out - explosive charges on the door hinges or something. Obviously the R8 doesn’t have the issue, but others could be potentially worse. Wonder how he actually managed to get it on to it’s roof?

Absolutely this... that thing’s at the top of my wish list.

It’s no doubt close - but the proportions are off everywhere that it matters. The wheels are too small, the glass is too high, and the fastback is not fastback enough. The original design was a great looking vehicle and unfortunately this does have a bit of a golf-cart look-alike feel to it with the high windows. With

He’s still on the power all the way into the pickup... Lifting would have helped....

In case you’re serious - energy cannot be created or destroyed, it must be transformed from one form to another and in that transformation, there are often losses to other forms such as heat in the case of friction. Basically, to my knowledge there is not a device that would add more power than the resistance it would

Actually the Rolls Royce umbrella placement is quite interesting - on the 4 door models - the umbrella is in the suicide door and therefore points outwards when the door is open. It’s for the driver to pull it put and have it ready for the owner who is in the back seat. On the two door Rolls Royces, it could just as

I have very mixed feelings on this one... on some angles I love it... on some angles it doesn’t look balanced or well proportioned...

Absolutely love the 2WD factor, but I’d swap the 4wd’s front bumper back on to it.

My question is... if we had this targeting information already... why were the targets not already bombed?

All it would have taken is a low-lit, silhouette shot of it in the trailers in theatres before Spectre with the voice over saying “We don’t want to ruin the movie for you, so we won’t show you too much. Just know it’s available. Now.”

The fact that the wheels haven’t melted and it still seems to have paint on one side gives me hope that the fire damage wasn’t too extensive to allow it to be fixed... but fire does nasty stuff to weaken car bodies though, it will be a delicate balance between trying to preserve some original parts of the car, and

It’s incredible that this is now an 11 year old car, and except for the fans that can spot the difference on the headlights, it’s virtually indistinguishable from the car still sold today, that still looks current and has one of the most impressive, imposing and yet lovable exteriors out there.

I really don’t think the LS swap would give you the wall of torque and waftability that you get from the Rolls Royce V12. Would certainly give the car a different character and it’s debatable whether it’s for better or worse. But if you do go ahead with such a crazy idea - DIBS on the old Rolls Royce motor please. I’d

Surely Land Rover could use the movie as grounds to extend Defender Productions for at least one more year? Please?
