visual comparison of Italian and British Rollses

Espada is usually claimed to be Italian Rolls. Therefore, I visually compare here the Italian Rolls with the British Rolls.
Here they are:
Italian: Lamborgihini Espada 400 GTE (alias Espada series 2, 1970 - 1972) by AA, the red one
British: Rolls-Royce Phantom VI (1968 - 1991) by TRL, the blue one
The last photo is misleading because British Rolls is about 5 cm longer in reality.

Gosh, I'd love to have BOTH cars in my collection. Sooner or later, ...

... I'll need to make some space decisions. I'm out out space and if I'm going to continue collecting, something currently displayed is going to be dispatched to the closet.

Marlowe, there are always other rooms in your home...

living room, kitchen, bath room, hallway, etc. Time to stand up and show who's the boss. The cost is minimal after you get past the lawyers fees and alimony.

We don't really need a range, Honey. You can cook on the gas grill . . .

. . . I'll even let you use my golf umbrella when it rains!

That's right, Bob!!! But I also have to factor in costs for ER and physical rehabilitation too!

I think we need an opinion poll here on whether Marlowe should assert himself after all it's no skin off of our teeth. I vote yes. I like the way you think John.
