Appreciate Your Lexus

[tonyricha]

Evening all,have I gone mad? just taken delivery of a beautifulll 1992 Rolls Royce Silver Spirit in metallic Royal blue with Magnolia hide (starting a wedding car hire business in Cambridgeshire) looks fantastic but drives like a Thames barge after the 450h. We dont reliase how good these modern cars are! Oh and 17MPG may get 20 at a steady 56MPH and only about 230 BHP ( they wont say exactly) Don't think it weighs much more than the Lexus but I guess the 6.75 litre engine needs plenty fuel, glad I got the high econmy fuel injection 4 speed auto model not the old twin SUs with 3 speed gearbox!

Seconded some pics of the old roller would be good :)

Here you go fellas, by the way a Rolls Royce owner NEVER calls his car a Roller (so I was told by a indignant dealer) Never too old to learn!

[ChrisIS200SportTTE]

Very nice. That will make a perfect wedding car!

Well I'll never own one so they'll always be Rollers to me :)
