@@burnotto1663silver cloud was way before these.these seraphs are the last cars to look trully like a rolls royce should.everything rolls royce have done since has bin badly styled.
At that point the Rolls Royce just looked like a car. Whatever changes were made, they were overdue and resulted in the Phantom, which was once again a truly majestic Rolls Royce.
@@farishanafiah8461 Clarkson also test drove the last of the Series III XJ12s in 1992, long after everyone and their mother had reviewed it years earlier. It would have been nice to know what was special about the final Crewe cars.
I'm not sure what I'm more offended by; the fact Rolls sold out to the Germans, or that the yob commenting on the fact looks like he just ram-raided a Tesco.
I would say similar. One might even say Bentley is in the lead, with BMW having lost it's shine (especially in the United States), but Volkswagen is also starting to loose it's reputation for quality in Europe.
@@stephans1990 no I mean as in badge image because Bentley is known for being in the shadows of Rolls Royce at least here in Europe but I prefer Bentley
It has always bin so even if it started with the fact Bentley was stronger and faster Until R-R bought Bentley after Bentley Mk6 it was the exact same car with to names used same parts
RIP ROLLS-ROYCE 1904-1998. To be perfectly honest, I have owned many Rolls-Royce automobiles, and I can say, they are total pieces of junk, but not half as bad as the German knockoffs! Not only are they cheaply made, but they are not real Rolls-Royces. The parts almost all came from Germany, and the engine is a BMW. At least the genuine RR’s for the most part will enjoy appreciate throughout the year’s, as the BMW version is deprecating so fast to the point, it won’t be worth the massive expense to keep it going. Basically it’s a disposable car at best that will soon find its new home very soon, in a junkyard.
Yes the R-R idea was gone with Silver Cloud or possibly early Silver Shadow they were built to last You are fair but crule Sir Let the Germans celebrate their viktory now 53 years later
Actually this rolling junk was built in England almost entirely of German parts to include a BMW engine that reads Rolls-Royce, which is fraud. Even the Seraph had a BMW underpowered engine. At least it had no engine manufacturer name on it. It just said Silver Seraph. That is also fraudulent as there is no engine manufacturer named Silver Seraph. I am surprised all of the people that purchased these cars doesn’t file a Class Action Lawsuit for FRAUD from 1998 to 2022. They would win!!
Can not even spell the name of the car he is speaking about Rolls-Royce it spells Nickname for the Seraph should be Silver Sarcophagus Why this useless BMW engine the are good US engins to fit the US gearbox The R-R idea was gone any how if You compare Seraph with a real Rolls-Royce a Silver Cloud
