    Back in January, we reported that Bentley was considering a new SUV for their lineup and that decision would be made sometime in the first quarter. Well it seems a decision has been made since Automotive News Europe is reporting the SUV could be making an appearance at next month’s Geneva Motor Show.

    The Bentley SUV will use the platform that underpins the current Audi Q7, Porsche Cayenne and Volkswagen Touareg. Power will come from twelve-cylinder powerplant. The SUV will go on sale sometime in 2014.

    • In this latest war with Canada (we'd been bros since like 1813), this American is taking the Canadian's side.  That's all I've got to say on it.
    • You're speaking of collision parts. I'm just talking about doing brakes and oil. The S-Class (like most high-end German luxury from any brand) has some pretty crazy service items.  Audi is definitely worse in this department for any V engine. The G90 doesn't run the 2.0 or 2.4. The 3.5 and 3.8 have been around a few years now and seem to be serving just fine.  While what you're saying is true for Hyundai, it seems to be significantly less true for Genesis.
    • Not sure the maintenance is so low on a Genesis.  Hyundai/Kia parts prices are insane.  An engine wire harness on an Elantra is over $5,000, it is $6,000 on an Elantra Hybrid on and S-class and it is $4,370.  A Tucson front door is $2300, on an S-class it is $2,100 on a Lexus LS is $838.    A Kia Sorrento quarter wheel opening molding is $808, for plastic.  1 headlight on a G90 is $3,649, more than an S-class but less than the BMW $5,000 laser headlight. On a Mercedes a front radar sensor is about $650.   On the current Hyundai Tucson front radar sensor is $2000, on the prior generation they are $2700  S-class parts are expensive for sure, but expected for the price of the car and basically on par with  Tucson/Elantra parts.  Lexus parts are cheaper than Hyundai/Kia or Mitsubishi parts. And it seems like the Hyundai 3.5 V6 doesn't have issues, but those 2.0 and 2.4 liter 4 cylinders for the 2010s burned oil and grenaded themselves like crazy.  Those are the engine equivalent to the Nissan CVT transmission, do not buy ever.  On top of the fact that you can steal those Hyuundais but putting a scrunched USB jack in the ignition.  I just can't trust anything Hyundai makes, it looks nice new and after 5 years they look like crap and fall apart.  
    • Trump did call our Prime Minister by his actual title.  Prime Minister and not governor. He did say it was a good call.  (But werent all calls from the US to Canada since all this tariff nonsense began were good calls?) PM Carney also said it was a good call. Trump did lie that other countries have apologized to him...  As if all other countries have taken advantage of the US.  Like he keeps on crying on about puffing his chest.  (Elbows up Canada!!! Right to his unprotected head)  Trump playing the victimhood card is a bad look in my opnion.  Makes the US look really really weak.   Like the US never had a backbone. And with Trump in charge a spineless backbone even worse...     Al, that though still doesnt change the fact the Canadians will NOT be buying anything American for a very looooooong time.   Damage is done.   Elbows up!
