The contraption we have here isn't going to fool anybody into believing the Spirit Of Ecstasy on its massive radiator grille is there for good reason. Then again, this hasn't stopped its owner from trying to convince the world this is a Rolls-Royce.
Given the point made above, there's no sense in discussing whether the look of this machine is closer to that of the Cullinan or perhaps the thing resembles one of Goodwood's also-massive sedans - pixel tip to Justin Schmidt (via the Y U RUNE KLASSIK? Facebook Group) for the image.
Even so, let's take the time to remember how the British automotive producer describes the appearance of the SUV, just to see how far this "replica" is: "This strength and power are immediately apparent from the face of Cullinan. Key features such as lights and air intakes are deep set into the bodywork, whilst strong vertical and horizontal lines create a powerful visage, with the prominent brow of a Saxon warrior created by the line that runs across the top of the pantheon grille and 'eyebrow'-like daytime running lights. This approach lends a toughness of expression to the front of Cullinan,"
So, what's under the skin? Well, you've already read the title, so you know this vehicle came to the world as a Jeep Grand Wagoneer.
Of course, some will find the wheels of the car, with their juicy chrome styling, particularly disturbing, but this is another story for another time.
Let's say this Grand Wagoneer actually ends up as part of a funeral. Well, there will be plenty of people recognizing the traditional RR elements, but, as I mentioned in the intro, you don't need to be an automotive aficionado to notice that this isn't one of England's lavish machines.

Oh, and did I mention there's more to this four-wheeled creature?
By the looks of it, this faux Roller now serves as a hearse. Of course, this makes things considerably stranger.
