Hey Mudit, Nice pics. White XJL looks killer. Where was this? What part of Rajasthan? From the pics it seems the S class is captured in Udaipur. (Sajjan Gadh in back drop) On my visit once to Udaipur last year i had seen a Bentley Arnage there. Probably a visitor. Had also seen a few X5's and Q7's. Quite a lot were RJ14 registered. The Bentley was DL. |

There is one Jaguar-Black, Yellow plate, RJ-14 that belongs to a leading Tour operator in India. He has quite a few exotics to suffice the demands of the high profile guests he caters for. The 2nd pic in your 2nd post looks that it has been taken at Merc Showroom parking? |

The rims on the Panamera are a big letdown. The high profile tires spoil the stance. |

I fail to see why someone would spec those wheels, especially in Rajasthan. The state has some of the most amazing roads, both within cities and outside them. But then, everyone is entitled to their opinion, especially someone who buys a car costing upwards of a crore. :D |

Those wheels and tires,the color,the slight dusty flavor to the Panamera seem the perfect combination for me. I'd happily do a India dekkho with this thing. With a subtle and classy luggage rack on the roof! I'm starting to like the Panamera range .These cars are the epitome of high speed trans-continental cruising as well as some real fun in the twisties. That's a crazy concept!:) |

Lamborghini did that a long time ago,it was called the Espada.I agree with shamik,the wheels look totally out of place.For a transcontinental cruise a Ferrari 550 is perfect with the flappy paddles.Those V12s were designed with much more lower end torque than a what you would expect in a ferrari,but were still plenty fast.And twisties?:) |

But with four people and most of their stuff in supreme comfort,cars like the Panamera and the Rapide have taken the concept of the 2+2 GT to a new,more functional level,without losing out on the fun as well as the oomph factor. However,the FF is undoubtedly the king here.:D |

I guess you forgot the Bentley Flying Spur there. The Panamera and the FF have proper backseats, but the Rapide can't exactly be called comfy in the rear, can it? That said, I'm a huge fan of the Rapide's looks! Looks drop-dead gorgeous! |

Well,kill me for it,but in my book,the Panamera looks better than a Flying Spur. A sublimely beautiful Continental GT Coupe stretched without too much thought. I'm sure that must not be the case in Bentley's book,but personally I find the proportions of the Flying Spur a bit Superb-ish. No offence meant.:) The Panamera at least plays honest in being a four door coupe,and looking like one. Again you might call the Rapide a stretched DB9/Virage,but you have to admit it(you already have!) that Aston has pulled it off cleanly.I believe its amongst the most beautiful cars on sale today. |
