As there is not a Rols Royce section I thought this was the best place for this video.

Thank you for that, David! Marvelous. I've had the pleasure(?) of working on a couple of the old girls, one needing a new clutch, the other was a water pump. Quite the eye-opener. That was in the late eighties and Rolls was the only parts source. Had to buy a set of proper "spanners" as a result, also.

The hard left turn at 20:37 looks an awful lot like the corner on the Twisted Sisters (TX 335 / 336 / 337) where I was absolutely sure I was about to write off my new-to-me R-Type and send my wife and me to meet our maker. I was approaching at a much higher speed than in the video... fortunately R-R had made considerable improvements to their brakes by 1954! It took a fair bit of muscle and the repeated application of some 4-letter words, but we made it through.
