    I have to disagree, the new Brooklands is so beautiful that I have pangs of jealousy and angst that I can't get one... man, I'd sue someone to get one of those!

    Is it just me or did this thread start in 2005?

    It's not like this is some new design, though. All they did was bump up the same things they did in the CGT Speed and applied it to the Flying Spur.

    Ryan, according to you signature if you are doing trademark filings for $599 you'd have to sue a LOT of people to get one of those :)

    Cool looking car, but it reminds me of the MUCH MUCH MUCH less expensive Merc CL too much to be worth north of $400k

    The car WILLIAM_H attached a picture of is a gazillion times prettier car than the one in the first link.

    No, these are what a Bentley should be like, and I'm iffy about the Blower.
    LM wins more than many other makes.
    The dreck they make now are either really unreliable (ask me how I know), or glorified VW phaetons that weigh 6k lbs. Resale on Spurs- <20k miles sits in 120-125 range. The Arnages break constantly. The old big coupes same. Pretty, but nowhere worthy of the name (sorry, brand).

    Well, that's just a filing to get a mark. It's the infringement lawsuits for trademarks that are the Big Fish for IP litigators. I even take infringement on contingency if the facts are right.

    Modern cars don't do much for me anymore unless it's something like the F355 or Z8.

    Brooklands, Arnage, or nothing. Would never even consider any of the others.

    That last one is one of the sexiest cars on the planet :) Those and the pre-war Bugatti's. Love em. Love those LeMans cars too.

    I love the Brooklands and Arnage more than anything, but that Bentley is...


    *puts flame-suit on* ugly.

    the brooklands/arnage are very nice but I have never liked the flying spur. Definetly would like a rolls or bentley in my old age

    Top Gear did a review of this (Brooklands) last week. Clarkson literally shredded the tires off the thing. Funny to watch this huge car smoke the hell out of the tires.

    Clarkson is hilarious! Is that the first time he's blown a tire?

    Love my Bentley!! (of course, whenever it leaks Castrol LHM on the garage floor I figure on kissing at least a grand goodbye) ;)

    Cheers,
