                I'm not much good at attaching pictures to files so
                maybe this won't go<br>
                through?<br>
                As we all know, BMW now owns both the Riley and Triumph
                names and the<br>
                manufacturing rights. It also owns what was once known
                in the UK as Rolls<br>
                Royce (Car Division) and since it passed into BMW
                ownership, the company has<br>
                been producing a so-called Rolls Royce car which has
                about as much visual<br>
                appeal as any of the WW2 concrete German blockhouses
                still found throughout<br>
                the north coast of France as part of Adolf Hitler's much
                acclaimed 'Atlantic<br>
                Wall'.<br>
                This latest design study (pic attached - hopefully) to
                emerge from the Land<br>
                of the Hun (or even from the UK based rolls Royce
                factory) defies belief<br>
                that the former 'grace' of line that was (nearly always)
                the hallmark of<br>
                this erstwhile British company, has clearly gone for
                ever. <br>
                If BMW in its infinite wisdom ever decides to resurrect
                either/and/or the<br>
                Riley and Triumph names and launches car that are so
                tasteless and abhorrent<br>
                as what it's played around with for Rolls Royce, we can
                all be certain that<br>
                the once noble names of Riley, Rolls Royce and Triumph
                will have been<br>
                prostituted for ever. But in my view there's nothing
                coming out of Audi,<br>
                Benz, BMW or VW that called ever be called visually
                pleasing and that's why<br>
                I've made it clear that when I die, I'd be far happier
                to be taken to church<br>
                in a wheelbarrow or pulled on a horse drawn farm cart
                than ever be put in a<br>
                hearse that has German origins. <br>
