I think they are one of the most bad arse cars ever to be brought into this world, and they are bottoming out at ridiculous prices in the UK right now.

I assume astronomical service bills every fifty miles is why I shouldn't?

I can't imagine maintenance being cheap. If you are driving it 5K miles a year I say why not otherwise hold on tight to your wallet.

Do NOT, I repeat, do NOT get a Green Label! If you do, I will personally come to Finland to set it ablaze. I will also refuse to hand over naked pictures of tuuner.

Always been a huge fan of those cars (still my fav Bentley) but I'd feel like such a prat tooling around South Central in one with my tattered jeans and hasn't-been-cut-in-8-months hair.

Why not? I can't see how a heavy-arse pushrod 6.75 would be better than a BMW 4.4.
