Was in melbourne for a week, saw lots of nice cars.
Audi R8, lots of three series and 5 series wagons (dont usually see many in my state of WA) but then on the second last day of my trip by sheer coincidence passed by the Aston Martin and Rolls Royce dealer, and it just made my day.

i've seen several people call it "a four door phantom"

[Alasondro Alegré]

There's a coup? version (regular and drophead).

There's a coup? version (regular and drophead).

didn't that have a different name? like azur or sth iirc?

 

[Eye-Q]

Azure is a Bentley-model. You have the Phantom, the Phantom Drophead Coup? and the Coup? which is essentially the Drophead Coup? with a fixed metal roof.

I believe that's a RR Ghost and not a Phantom

 

[NecroJoe]

You are correct.

Pre-Facelift third-gen Chevy Silverado.

It's a 1973-1981ish Chevy Suburban.

 

[Dr_Grip]

It's a 1973-1981ish Chevy Suburban.

The writing on the back said "Silverado"... But 1973-81 is consistent with pre-faclift 3rd gen Chevrolet C/K - might the Suburban just be another trim level/version of the same car?

 

[CraigB]

Suburban was the 4 door utility vehicle based on the C/K truck. My dad had a '79 with a 454 BBC, got all of 8 MPG.

 

[Dr_Grip]

Suburban was the 4 door utility vehicle based on the C/K truck.

Ah, now i got it: According to wiki, Silverado was the premium trim level on that gen Suburban.

8mpg? That's twice what Clarkson's Ford GT managed

The owner is either an assistant attorney general or someone who knows about Jaaags.

Took my dad's XJ12 back to the shop today for finishing repairs (as part of the mild resto/reconditioning process) and spotted these on the way while sitting in traffic.

I'm sorry, but that's is one UGLY Ferrari rear end. Whoever designed the car from the C-pillar back should be beaten with a club studded with nails. It actually looks worse in person.
