That IS going to be controversial!

Looks like they crossed a Merc CLS, Audi RS4 and erm, those headlights remind me of something..? Oh yea- SD1!!!

Think I'd have to see one in the flesh before making my mind up!

it looks nice and all, like a lot of modern cars do. But it's not right as a 2 door (other than Db's, that's fantastic! but mainly because it's so one-off). The whole point of an SD1 was that it was great big mother hunker of a limobarge. This new version would just get lost among all the TT's and the like, which it looks way too similar to for my liking.
I wish I had a pound for every time some one told me "My Dad had one of those!"

The SD1 isn't a large car at all. It is also quite tight for space inside - which is why IMHO it didn't do well in India. I'm only 6ft tall, but would like more legroom when driving it. As would the passenger behind me. Where it does score is the ability to carry large loads with the rear seat folded - unlike so many saloons. And, of course, the drop dead looks. :D

You've got my vote for the SD10.
Especially if powered by an LS7. :lol:
