a New Rolla nearly ran me over - damn they are huge!!

[Pnut]

Just about got run over by one of the new Rolls-Royce 'New Phantom' the other day, damn those things are HUGE!! I even looked like a tank bigger than most other cars i have seen, but gleemed with luxery. Anyone else seen one in person?

[freestylin_hamster]

Damn that is one ugly brick! I would certainly feel ashamed to be hit by that..it would not be any sort of honour at all.

[UR2FAT]

Looks like a big grey box to me, I'd way rather roll in a Bentley.

I'd also rather be hit by one than to hit one myself, I think the insurance company would go bust if it had to replace a fender on one of those.

here's me reading the topic line and wondering why you think a corolla is huge ops:

^^ Thought the same thing myself.

The chances of even seeing a brand spankin Rolls Royce in this country are very remote. The chances of being 10 pinned by one are probably far less then the probablility of being eaten by a great white shark.

That's freekin ugly alright though.

That sounds odd, coming from Auckland where they are inevitably imported to.

I'd be surprised to see one in Welly but I think a drive through Parnell, Remuera or one of the other pretentious Orkland 'burbs would turn at least one up... :wink:

nah man you generally see, mercs, beamers, audi, porches the occasional ferrarri but i've never ever seen a rolls

[---seanny---]

I'll hav one of those to bring my coffin round the day i die. It's really not an honour to get run over by one n die!

[Pnut]

Well this was in Pakuranga of all places (yawn), not too many out west above say 1990 though eh sonar

i still can't believe the size of it as it rolled past, quiet too apart from the burble of the V8, and how high the guy was sitting. The guy driving looked pretty pretentious all dressed up as well, all just smelled of money

[berman]

Yeah thats ugly! Should stick it in the next Mad Max movie

I can believe they still use those darn ugly grills/radiators :!:

Could make a better looking car outta lego

[pxpx]

Holy shit that is enormous!

When I read the title of the post, I figured you were talking about the new Toyota Corolla

What a big hulking ugly piece of status gluttoning crap.

[tysonzane]

damn thats one huge beast im guesing a couple of tonne

[cyborg_rage]

Now thats a tank! 8O

heck if I saw that coming towards me on the streets I'd think we were at war!

[nathan23h]

Big Pimpin Yo.............It is ugly though id rather go P-Diddy styles and get me a Bently 8)

[DA8!]

It reminds me of a 70s era Soviet "Zil" Limousine.

Yeah I drive through Remuera daily and frequently see motors of that pedigree^^, oh that and every other vehicle being a Ranger Rover Vouge or Discovery. I Hate the fuckers.
