The modells I like are mostly the after world-war II cars
With pre-war cars I am not such a good friend. Horrendous costs etc, plus design is too old

OK, some Phantoms III-IVs are something fine, but way too expensive for common mortals

Are there any preparations from the factory for the 100th year-birthday? I am sure something will come up! A special modell etc...

Rolls-Rolls presented a unique prototype, the 100EX

100-> The 100th Anniversary
EX->For Experimental.

It is a cabrio version of the Phantom.

Rolls-Royce announced the production of a limited series from Phantom modells, 35 cars,

More infos here

And part of the interview of Helmut Panke, BMW-Executives Board Member from the latest issue of the german Auto Motor Sport:

About Rolls-Royce
In the long time, Rolls-Royce cannot survive only from the Phantom range. We ca discuss about a cabrio version, as well was a bigger and a smaller modell.

What do you think RR-Enthousiasts. Does the RR 100EX prepare the public for a coming cabrio version?

Do you think the V16 motor will be part of the concept car or we'll see it on the road someday.

If BMW answer the need for more power and driveability, then only one opponent remains. The Bugatti EB218

And some Wallpapers from the RR 100EX here

Nice to hear some comments!
