I saw one of these yesterday in Los Angeles. Always an interesting Rolls-Royce model.

You are advertising film transfers and you didn't bother to color correct this, or time base repair it? Not a good job done here. The blacks are red, the whites are green. It is jittery. All of this should have been repaired in the render and it would have taken 2 minutes.

The Camargue is a marmite roller...... To me it's the most beautiful Rolls Royce ever.... If I was lucky enough to win the Lotto a well sorted Camargue would be the top of my automotive shopping list followed by a series 1 E TYPE 👍

There is a story that when the Camargue was in its early stages of development, Mr Farina , of Pinninfarina , visited the factory and they sat him in a prototype. They closed doors and windows , they one of the engineers who he got on with particularly well, threw a bucket of water over the car. This let dripping water over Mr Farina s’ lap on his best Amarni suit. The engineer said whilst you at some revisions , put some rain channels in the roof , “ This ain’t one of your bloody Ferraris ! “

Stunning watching them build it. That wooden roof stretcher is amazing. Shame there’s almost no footage of Rolls Royce at all from the period before BMW ruined it all, this vid is all I’ve managed to find. At least there’s a few uploads of Aston Martin factory works tours up to the 90’s on KZfaq, nothing for RR, or any period coachbuilders either. Lost art by in large. Anyone know of any such footage, especially if it’s on KZfaq. Camargue isn’t to everyone’s taste but it’s one of the bravest designs ever, along with the Aston Martin Lagonda series 2/3/4 (series 1 was actually a previous and different car entirely). So sculptural. Never ever seen one though, have seen a a few Turbo R and maybe an SZ Rolls and Shadow at a few car shows. Carfection recently showcased quite a nice Camargue with beautiful olive colour leathers. I know it’s an Italian design but no Italians ever could have built it quite so well as RR did. I’ve seen some truly ghastly work in from the factory/coach works some of the most prestigious Italian marks and coachbuilders, they’re very lazy, carefree people I suppose ahah, everything always wobbly and misaligned, same with their interiors, glue everywhere and stuff. Thank God the work was done in Britain and not by Italians. I don’t think Italians even had wheels and slappers, just hammers.

What an absolutely charming and delightful film, “starring” Rolls-Royce 40/50 experimental chassis number 1701, which made a run from London to Edinburgh entirely in top gear. It did it again in 1977, abd as recently as 2011. A tribute to Rolls-Royce engineering.

For those asking about the edited sound. This is my own personal 16mm cine film. The reason the music has been changed, is because of copyright. KZfaq would not allow the original music content as there was a copyright claim on it so the background music was substituted

I have always admired Rolls Royce for fostering this design from concept to production. It was a risk, and in my opinion, a worthy and successful effort. The Camargue is simply beautiful, bereft of unnecessary ornamentation.

Nostalgia eh, Cliff Michelmore, he seemed to be on every TV show in the UK on a daily basis, wasn’t he in the original Top Gear? I seem to remember, at the time, that the Camargue replaced the Corniche as the most expensive car in the UK, possibly the world. Lot my eyes as a car nut, I felt it was clumsy and pug ugly, almost a parody of Lady Penelopes’s Pink Roller in the kids’ Show Thunderbirds.
Prices vary dependent on reel size. If you head to our website and contact us through there with details of what exactly you need transferring, we would be happy to give you a price. Thanks. Colin

In all my years, I've only ever seen one Camargue on public roads. It was a White one, on a R 1976 plate, coming towards me on the Heads of the Valleys road, above Merhyr Tydfil in South Wales. It was well over 35 yrs ago, but I can still remember it,. I had no idea at the time how rare a sight it would become, only 525 examples made.

I've seen four back in the days, in Paris and South of France, Saudi plates most of them, a very ugly car, horrible stance, in fact people wouldn't take a second glance at them unless you saw them from the front and noticed the R-R grill and emblem. A Silver Shadow or Corniche would draw immediate attention and admiration. I think Pininfarina played a sick joke on the folks at Crewe, with that Fiat on steroids.
