    Sorry for the old bump, but that was me snapping a shot with poor cellcam. I was on my way to Red Deer and just woke up from my nap. Next thing I know, I see this red beauty. However by the time I grabbed my phone and turned it on he already slowed down and was turning off the road.

    A friend has brought this dastardly plan to my attention. He writes:

    "I don't usually use this broadcast to support my own political opinions but I have a real problem with front license plates.

    Years ago the government decided that we didn't need them but they are now considering bringing them back.

    There is a brief survey at www.licenseplate.alberta.ca that asks the question of whether or not we should have the second unnecessary unsightly non-aerodynamic car defacing plate bolted to the front of our cars again. Also, a waste of energy and resources in the manufacture.

    The minister in charge is Lloyd Snelgrove
    http://www.assembly.ab.ca/net/index.aspx?p=mla_contact&rnumber=80.

    If you are an AMA member their safety director, Don Szarko is also in favour of bringing back front plates.

    Please take to time to fill out the questionnaire and say "NO" to front plates and pass the link along to other like minded people."

    I did.

    Bentleys have to be a great winter car. 4WD, and great luxury is a pretty potent combination.

    shross......

    Thanks for posting that info and link. I just did the survey and voted no. Also left them a "nice" comment........

    Can't those assinine fools spend something better to do with the money we give them. There are a lot more serious issues than license plate redesign.

    Spotted this beast about a week ago in Banff (ZRs), also saw a Red 360 coupe across from westbrook mall recently.

    First time to see a Phantom up close, after a quick inspection I walked away thinking I'd prefer to drive it than sit in the back. If I won the 37 mil a few weeks ago I would have opted for a Maybach to be driven in (once had the experience) even though I like the look/stance of the RR more.

    I've driven a Phantom........it is nothing to write home about. It is like driving a meat freezer.

    i remember seeing a black phantom downtown at a distance and thought initially who would mount a rr grille on a rover.... the thing is massive.

    caught a blue alpina b7 near glenmore landing yesterday. seen the usual cars around town as well.

    Does anyone know how much the ZR limo is to rent for a 1 way trip? It'd be about 10 km, or so.
    I'm looking into all of the best ways to get to my grad in June. I'm a huge car nut, so I'm looking at either that, or.... I dunno. I might have to ask a Ferrari owner nicely if they'd drive me. But I know how many requests they (you) get, so I'm reserving that as a second option.
