I do love Bill's jaundiced view on life. Very dry humour which goes down well here in the UK. I don't watch these reviews for the car, but rather for Bill's acerbic rants.

There's an incredible amount of profit made on these cars. It has mostly 7 series parts and costs 3x the amount. And they still make money on the 7 series as well. Certainly a beautiful car but I just couldn't justify the cost as the one off over engineered cars of the past are gone. Cheers!

Forget about the Mansory edition, the Gucci edition and the Pucci edition. If Rolls Royce wants to inject a little class into its lineup, they ought to just make a Bill edition. Big cigarette lighter, max capacity ashtray, laser guided bird detector, Dalton Abatement System and...🤔... for the piéce de resistance...🤔...uh...a glass of coronavirus whiskey as a hood ornament. 🥃 ...or miniaturized version of Marianne from back in the day.

The turn off - At the rear, looking at the rear of this car the shape of the taillights and how they wrap around along with the chrome strip above the license plate resembles very much the rear of the 1990/91 Ford Crown Victoria. And vintage it is especially those buttons under the air vents on the dash that look like mini jukebox selectors at a greasy spoon diner. Oh, I forgot. That chrome circular I guess speaker cover in front of the door handle - Grandma had those on her colored matched radio and toaster from the 40s. Ending with this, the selector switch for the headlights. What the hell is that? Reminds me of a knob on a toaster. Imagjne that.

Gosh Bill, I love your commentary - as always - but I'm not in love with this Car. I think I am too old and maybe too financially challenged to get excited about it. I do own a 1976 Silver Shadow which is glorious, and that (to me at least) is the epitome of British elegance and class. Again, my age probably has something to do with my taste 🙂
