Is there anyone besides me that do not find the Roller interiors attractive?

Ive been inside a couple of phantoms, material and finish is top notch..
But design wise.. ( im sure it fits the brand image) but still..i just find it weird.
Its like one of those old wooden bureaus your grandmother used to have.

IMO nobody will disagree with you, I agree(y)
There just is no point discussing the design of that interior design, it's just how it's suppose to be, have been since forever. Will look like this always. Its the Roller way, the Chauffeur sits there behind the wheel and wooden sideboard.
You can't change that history of unique overuse of wood for that is it.
 
Probably has exceptional materials, fit and finish. But it's all too retro and borderline kitsch (none of the colours match) for my tastes thanks.
 
Yeah i guess your not suppose to sit there in a roller..

But anyway thats just not good looking.. i think they should take the step into the new century.

Love the concept and finish, but not with this particular wood choice. However with the right wood, I ask, what is the competition supposed to do about this? This kind of detailing KILLS it.

I spent some time looking at the Wraith last week and I ended up not liking as much as I had anticipated. The rear looks as heavy as it does in photos. A PR lady told me that the two-tone paint brings out the sportiness of the Wraith, but in my opinion it brings out the heaviness of the rear. Aside from that, the front end and the interior are sublime in typical RR fashion.

The front end of the Wraith is the update the Ghost needs imo.
 
I've been saying that since the beginning :D

It looks pretty awkward in these last shots in blue btw. Like the rear axle has broken down or something.
Really have to see this car in person to make a judgment.

Heavy car + soft suspension + acceleration :)
 
I am still undecided about this car. I think it looks better with just a single color.

^I feel the complete opposite, I reckon it takes the two toned paint work to lift it's looks from bulky to elegant.

That said I still think the Bentley is by far the prettier shape.

Of course, you're a VAG lover.

Also, nice!! A touched up press photo vs a spyshot of a taped off driving pre production model. You've outdone yourself once more.

Comon Klier you are being too cynical.
 
I am when someone posts the worst pic of a Wraith vs a studio pic of the Bentley?
People are free to dislike the fastback shape and all, but come on!

Either way, I think we would all have been happier if the Wraith was a small Phantom coupe in shape:


That's just royal....
 
Klier mate I'm not an VAG lover, if I were it would be the sole brand I own/ed and drove which it isn't. Sure ones a studio photo and the other isn't but you can't deny that the Rolls looks awkward by comparison, its doors in particular are at odds with its design IMO but then that's just me and maybe the next person will think it looks great.

IMO the Bentley CGT looks like a proper coupe from side profile whilst this RR doesn't.
