    Thats crazy awesome. I like shooting brakes, rarely do I seem to find them looking nasty.

    The tailgate folds open like an American 'mailbox'...if you're loading something heavy, you're going to 'break' the glass.

    Once fanboyism infects you it impares all your judgement.
    It's like being drunk, you lack common sense and everyone laughs at you.

    I was always convinced it was Shooting-Brake, but then other people in here were determined it was 'break' when the subject came up the other day. Now I'm just confused.

    Oh man , I won't even try to count how many times this question has been asked here. (At least twice in the last two weeks ). Here's the answer I posted last year:

    Quote Originally Posted by go.pawel
    Originally it was "shooting break". It meant a kind of a carriage, with larger baggage space, used for carrying equipment, dogs etc. for shooting parties, a popular pastime in UK, in years before the WW2. Later, as motorcars became popular, coachbuilders switched from building carriages to converting/building cars for that purpose. But the name stayed the same.
    Generally, it was a specialized version of a station wagon/estate, which was a carriage used for carrying baggage from railway station to the estate (thus the name ).

    Oh, I know lots of good-looking shooting brakes. Or even more.
    It's not denial. I'm just very selective about the reality I accept.

    the third picture looks like a even older picture, from before it went to the barn.

    And the last three pictures were taken a month ago at the 6 hours of Spa at Francorchamps.

    (the pictures are marked, but this is such a rare find)

    Shooting Break was the original (or more correct) term, but is often changed to Brake.
