I did notice it's got the Rolls grille on again. Wonder how long that'll stay for?

I like the subtle update. It's still instantly recognisable as the beast, but looks a bit tidier around the edges. Great to see it's had a RR grille reinstated after such a long hiatus, too. The front end has gone from a face only a mother could love to looking almost like it could have been factory. I think the only change which doesn't work quite as well is the tailgate and back end - the previous double light clusters looked pretty neat.

SDI polo with a tide mark, st George cross steelies and some red tape over the lights for that lean, mean slow diesel machine look. 

I shall go back to the whiskey and drink a little more and pretend I never seen this abomination.

Wow, it's still around. I thought it had disappeared years ago.

I remember there were problems getting the engines synchronised and getting the drivetrain combination to work, which is understandable - 2 Rover V8s mounted side by side powering through two autoboxes to a Jag diff. They did get it to drive though.

The technical details would be interesting - the buyer may need to be an expert in witchcraft.

But after the court case, I wonder if it's done just for publicity? I can see it ending up in court again, with probably the same result

tfw ur heater control is a blanking plate

It'll be fine - forward motion is provided by the driver in Anthill Mob mode - that'll keep you warm enough

Wasn't it black originally.

It was black in the early 80s magazines. I think I read somewhere that another one was built about 10 years ago but I could have imagined that. Don't know when it was red.
