Rolls Royce Silver Cloud II from 1960 totally wrecked

Although I’m not a lover of classics, it bothers me a lot when irreplaceable models are disrespected. Classics are unique models, living history of how our cars have evolved, which is why, when ridiculous modifications tuning are seen on a classic, you feel like reporting it for violating everyone’s historical heritage.

Many people may like it and even think it improves the car’s aesthetics, which is not the case. In my view tuning is about creating a unique model, one that bears no resemblance to any other existing model, so, if you own a 1960 classic, you already have that exclusivity and prominence. I understand modifying common models of Peugeot, Seat, Volkswagen, but modifying models of which perhaps only a dozen exist in the whole world does not seem right to me.

I don’t deny that when I watch films like 2 Fast 2 Furious I’m amazed by the modifications achieved, especially the Skyline R34 GTR, but modifying collector’s pieces such as a 1960 Rolls Royce Silver Cloud II is an insult to everyone.
