C-130 Hercules 570 Report post Posted June 5, 2021 Why is it called 'shooting brake'? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jon dee 500 Report post Posted June 5, 2021 The term "shooting brake" comes from turn-of-the-century England, where it referred to a car used to transport a hunting party and its gear. "Brake" referred to a chassis that was used to break in horses. ... Thus was the modern idea of a shooting brake born as a low, sleek two-door wagon. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jon dee 500 Report post Posted June 5, 2021 Hard to say ? There appears to be an insatiable demand for uber expensive bespoke vehicles, and the shooting brake is not too far away from this limited edition (40 cars) of the black badge Wraith. One-upmanship is alive and well among the super rich Cheers... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The gentleman's agreement that BMW would make the Roadster and Toyota the hard top version of the joint collaboration would probably come into it as well. 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NZ00Z3 187 Report post Posted June 6, 2021 Even Ferrari has a shooting brake in it's stable. A bit more "Clown Shoe-ish" (Z3 coupe) than the Z4 shape. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
