Cadillac Bent Like Beckham

One of the world's most famous athletes was involved in a car accident with his Cadillac over the weekend.

As an ordinary chap, if you get into an accident -- whether it is a fender bender or a severe wreck -- we at least can spare the embarrassment of it. When you're David Beckham, not so easy.

The big SUVs are most popular with British-bred athletes. They love them. In a country where you see so many small cars, "blingy" SUVs shouts wealth in those streets.

"so this cadillac supposedly has "heritage".
okay Escalade, what is exactly is so special about a rebadge yukon?

First of all, who said the Escalade represented Cadillac's heritage? If you heard, someone may have referred its spaciousness to Cadillac's of the past but thats it. Second, why are you talking to a truck? While the Escalade is basically a Tahoe or Yukon, its a pinch more than a "rebadge". Last but not least, thank you. I told you when I asked for your age I would eventually find out. > "I don't hang posters of CTS-V's on my bedroom wall and pine for it one day."

Ever hear of on-star if you get into an accident and your unconsious it can call for help and be used as a cell phone if your phone is dead or lost. You can also save 2 grand and use it's turn by turn navigation. HMMM Really? No engineering eh?

I know this isnt the subject but I really like how he had all of the over done god-awful chrome removed from this vehicle. Looks 100 times better IMO. Still wish it was a high luxury utility vehicle of Range Rover caliber but my fingers are still crossed until that day comes.
