popped in to my local BMW dealer to pick out a new mini for my daily driver when I got sidetracked by inquisitive side ..!
over in a far corner of th eBMW showroom is the Rolls Royce area with a few Phantoms on display ...
then out of the blue arrive a few robots if tan Armani suits and usher in a large car under a black cloth cover !!!
VERY STRANGE !!! since I am getting along well with the sales guy and we are talking cars he lets me know ( although says he is not really allowed to say as it is a SECRET !!! ) that these are top boffins from Rolls Royce German headquarters and that the car under wraps is the 101EX hand build coupe prototype !!!!
so I wait around for a few minutes and watch as the car is maneuvered into a private room through the back and just see the car through the door as it is unvieled to a very small audience of VERY rich dudes ...
although it looked a bit clumsy you still had to marver at its sheer oppulence, the front screen surround is milled from a solid chunk of alloy !!! bonnet is polished alloy too - VERY JDM !!!
here are some library pics ( I was told by the mini guy - if I bring in my digital camera from my car I would be forcefully removed by the RR guards !!! :shock: )
