Let's see...what do I think... gorgeous paint job, bit of identity crisis with the prancing horse hood ornament...
I've decided that I will not place an order for one, at least until those snobby British decide to Knight me! Bet it has a better ride than mine. Can't imagine the royal butts being subjected to all that harshness.

Someone posted the video of them cutting up an XJL to make the limousine/hearse.

They must have had to beef-up the front suspension just to carry the extra weight of that hood ornament.
But I do agree with the Royal family, why ride around in a mere Rolls Royce when you can go royal class in a Jaguar?
I notice their are apparently two of them, "NGN1" and "NGN2".

The 'State Limousine' is a Bentley:
It was specially commissioned and a gift to HM Queen Elizabeth II from SMMT (Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders).
It carries the Royal Standard and HM's vehicle is the only one on UK roads which is not required to display a registration plate.
The ornament is St George slaying the Dragon - the Queen's personal mascot.
The Jaguar limousine has one of a series of 12 consecutive NGN registration plates which originally belonged to the late Queen Mother. It carries a crown indicating use by a senior member of the Royal Family.
Most Bentley owners also have Jaguars available for less formal occasions.

I think it very kind the people of the UK do not require your Queen's vehicle to display those hideous yellow registration plates.
I should think such punishment should be reserved for child molesters and such.
