It all sounds quite promising in the bumph, then you actually see it... and feel sick. You can't even escape it by getting inside, the interior is just as bad.

It would if the grain was straight and the color was either much lighter or much darker. How they keep getting this wrong blows my mind. A real dark, almost black straight grained wood looks better than anything against brushed aluminum and leather.

Bentley knows how to do wood properly.

Using real wood does not change the fact taht it just doesn't work on this particular car. It just doesn't look very nice or flow with the design. The subtle Bentley wood is much better looking IMO.
