Getting Gurney'd is nothing compared to the stabbing I received tonite from our new Bentley Continental GT.
The drivers door was open and as I walked over to get into the car the window jumped out and stabbed me in the chest...
It has been appropriately named *#!X@*! window... :ack

......and a Bentley GT bit me on Park Lane!!! I was fiddling with the boot (trunk) and it sort of shut automatically with my finger in it.

May I suggest 'Crewe'd' for this type of injury? (Pronounced Crude. They are made in Crewe and have been dubbed a Crewes Missile).

What do you think of the Bentley Gordon?

"Crewe'd" it is... It's definately appropriate!

What do I think of the car? Fun to drive and a very comfortable luxerious interior (that goes 190 mph!). Real nice for everyday driving. Might try that convertable when it comes out. :thumbsup

I ordered the GTC 2 years ago (with a deposit) but am now getting the runaround from the dealer who is quoting me early 2008 (as opposed to early 2007 - which was the original promise).

GTC's are available right now in the UK but at some big premiums, I saw one over the weekend with a $280k price tag. :bored

I had sort of set my heart on one in Jan/Feb next year and, like a small child, am going off the idea of waiting.....

Gouging goes on everywhere.

Here in the States the car had a premium when it came out because the professional basketball players, other athletes, and the gold chain crowd made it their car of choice.

I almost ordered a GTC two years ago, but the dealer was such a snob I walked.

Gordon, I have to warn you not to disrespect me in my hood, otherwise me, and several of my home chaps will have no alternative but to bust a cap in your bottom.

I should have been a rap star. I've got that special type of mojo going on. In a terribly British sort of way of course.
