Two Cars, Different Countries

 

I saw this Rolls Royce recently parked in an office complex near me.  It took me a while to figure out it was a Rolls.  It doesn't look like other models I've seen around town.

Then I saw this photo that I took while I was in London.  This isn't a Rolls Royce but it certainly is similar in shape and size.  This is a new electric London taxi called an LEVC TX.  I like it!

I remember the classic Rolls-Royce, they would always make you look a second time. This one looks horrible.

The car is a bit retro like matchbox

The taxi I like, the truck, is an insult to the name Rolls Royce.

Like Travel, I like the taxi but SUV Rolls doesn't exude the classic elegance of its predecessors.

That Rolls is rather enormous and not what I would spend money on if I had it.

It's lost its charm.

I would never have picked that out as a Rolls. And yeah, that taxi definitely stole the design!

Interesting contrast.

it's a bit boxy shaped but I kind of like it.
