Did you watch 'Inside Rolls-Royce' on Channel 4 last Thursday evening?

If not, I recommend watching it on 4 ON DEMAND.

No, nor Derby.

I think it was more down south.

Anyway, it covers the quality and workmanship of the cars and also covers its sales operations in UAE.

Well worth watching., I can assure you.

Yes-- we watched it ! I actually thought that the one studded with diamonds was somewhat gross ! Prefer the old ones myself-- now they were elegant. :D

Any one who worked there or at Derby would refer to it as Royce's because he was the Engineer. Poor old Rolls was just the salesman. ^*^0
