Just an example of what cars that are suitable here.

I would love to do a tour around Europe in this one :D

Hmmm....the tiptronic look familiar.

I really hope VAG can distinguish the brands.

I want my Audi to resemble to a Skoda Superb as little as a Bugatti owner want his/her car to resemble to mine.

No Fiat stuff in the Ferrari if you know what I mean...

my thoughts exactly! Even PAG does a bad job in their premier brands (namely the Aston DB7). It looks like the interior of a Ford economy model wrapped in leather. :o

is it just me, or does anyone else find the interior of that Bentley just way too old-school? The exterior is beautiful, but I wish Bentley would just drop the "half a tree and two cows" approach they have to their interiors. I'd rather be in an A4 with an aluminium dash (to look at) than that thing. It's awful!

Hehe :)

I don't like the rainforest in my car either, love carbon fiber or aluminium.

yeah, absolutely. the inside and the outside just don't match in my opinion... plus the techie bits, like the LCD and the radio - it just looks ridiculous beside all the wood!

oh well, don't think it'll be my problem having to buy one of them anyway :)

There will be more carbon fibre and the like in the future around here, trust me...
