Cullinan on UK Roads

[Garreth-c136q]

Spotted this morning cruising around.

I can’t believe Rolls Royce are making an SUV. Very upsetting but maybe I will get used to the idea. I still have not warmed to the ghost yet.

I think it's a great idea...... I'm currently considering a Wraith and a low mileage 1-2 year old Range Rover, but I'm also wondering whether this new Cullinan could provide everything I need in one single car.

I always felt that the Phantom made me feel a bit too much like a chauffeur (much more so than the Mulsanne Speed), but on the plus side the level of quiet and refinement in the Phantom was like nothing else I've ever driven before!

If Rolls Royce can apply that same level of quiet and refinement to a 4x4, while also giving the added benefits of improved visibility due to a higher seating position, combine that with a refined vehicle that the owner can feel happy to bring out of the garage at any time, no matter how awful the British weather and I think the car could be a real winner - The problem sometimes with these types of car (Phantom / Mulsanne), is that sadly you sometimes let the weather dictate their use, which is a bit of a shame - Although then again, maybe keeping them special is part of the appeal - I suppose time will tell if I decide to go down this route.

I'm still waiting for more images....... I can't wait to see the car without all the camouflage - I suspect it's either going to look stunning or hideous!

In addition of course, I'm also waiting for a more accurate price from the dealer, as these haven' yet been confirmed.

Know someone who's been working on this. Let's say, there are "issues" with it.

Doesn't sound good - As he mentioned what? - Are they major?

Would prefer not to post in public, but they're not unsolvable issues. Just very painful problems that are causing some major headaches before launch. Yes, every new car from every brand has "issues" before launch, but these seem unusually acute.

I do understand...... If you wouldn't mind PM'ing me I'd be extremely grateful, obviously anything you tell me would remain in complete confidence.

Not a problem. I'd hate for you to think that you were about to get some genuine insight. I'm guessing from your user name that a Cullinan may well be a realistic proposition so it would be a shame for you to get duped into believing something that's going to have been made up.

Sent over a PM.

There are a lot of creepy online stalkers around, so prefer to be fairly cautious on what is posted in public.

And there are also deluded, self-centred and dangerous people like yourself that continually feel the need to make stuff up on the Internet and actively hand out "advice" to unsuspecting folks on things you know nothing about and have zero experience of. And for what? What do you get out of it?

All Mulsanne-Speed will need to do is have a brief look through your posting history to determine that a) you are going to be anything but a reliable source of information and b) what the general concensus is, of by far the majority of contributers to the forum, about you and your postings so who do you really think you are kidding Yipper?
