My Answers:
1: How would you describe the person who is most likely to drive this car? The person has a very big ego and wants to be noticed.
2: Is there anything you would change about this car, if it was yours? The grill and flying lady, should always be bright shiny chrome on a Rolls, it is a crime to do them in black.
3: How would you feel about driving this car for an afternoon? I have always wanted to drive or ride in a Rolls, just for an afternoon.
4: If you had billions, would you own one of these? No, I would own something reliable and unremarkable.
5: What US state do you imagine this car is registered in? I know the answer, I was surprised, the car is a very long way from home.
Please share your answers in the comments.
1: How would you describe the person who is most likely to drive this car? The chauffeur.
ReplyDelete2: Is there anything you would change about this car, if it was yours? Not sure - I don't know enough about them.
3: How would you feel about driving this car for an afternoon? Might be nice for a touring saloon. I'd be curious to drive it just to explore the bells and whistles, but would also be nervous as all get out being around other cars and trucks.
4: If you had billions, would you own one of these? Probably not. I actually enjoy the fact that there are people who do enjoy these and I get to look at them without getting tangled up in the maintenance. If I were a billionaire, I'd really like the Mercedes-Benz W189 300d aka the Adenauer in production from 1957-1962.
5: What US state do you imagine this car is registered in? In these parts, these are typically registered in Nevada or Oregon as a tax dodge based on those states' flat rate registration fees (California's fees are based on a percentage of 'book value').

Delete1: How would you describe the person who is most likely to drive this car? Someone who wishes to flaunt their wealth. A show off.
ReplyDelete2: Is there anything you would change about this car, if it was yours? I would put a Hull City sticker on the rear window and "Go Faster" stripes down the sides.
3: How would you feel about driving this car for an afternoon? Irritated.
4: If you had billions, would you own one of these? No. I would use a lot of my money to help others.

I like the idea of racing stripes. Only one demented individual thinks of Canada as the 51st state.

ReplyDelete2. Probably not park it in handicapped parking.
3. I'd do it if offered, but I don't see the need to go out of the way to try.
4. Nah. It doesn't seem like a fun ride.

I guess it is proof that not all disabled adults are poor.
Delete1: How would you describe the person who is most likely to drive this car? The person being driven by the driver would clearly love attention.
