You are correct, the Phaeton would do well with a Bentley badge ...as it does.

But that is the big issue with the Phaeton as we have said numerous times before, the VW badge.

The stupid thing is, some people on this forum hate the Flying Spur because it is a VW ...and they wouldn't buy a Phaeton because it is a VW. Yet everyone seems to agree the Phaeton is a terrific vehicle.

My question is, what is so wrong with the VW badge?

I like VWs ...I don't care if Adolf Hitler was partly responsible for its foundation it is an iconic brand.
