HOW IS YOUR COGNITIVE DISSONANCE SCORE? your ability, that is, to hold two contradictory beliefs simultaneously. Mine has gone through the roof after getting a good workout from the Black Badge version of the Rolls-Royce ghost.

When Rolls-Royce says the Black Badge version of the ghost is for radicals and subversives, your first response is to say: no, it’s not, it’s for the kids of the very rich people or for the kid inside those very rich people.

And when rolls call the Black Badge ghost minimalist, you may find yourself making a note to send a dictionary to Goodwood for Christmas. similarly, assertions that it is “dynamic” must surely be made with tongue in cheek.
