5 years in the making

For anything else not specifically DeLorean related....

5 years in the making

Postby Darren C » Tue Mar 05, 2013 9:06 pm

Today, a new Rolls-Royce was launched.

A new market for the 109 year old company.

A totally new car. Whilst remaining faithfull to the Brand.

Aimed at a totally new customer.

The worlds most powerful production Rolls-Royce (650 BHP)

At last I can release the gag, and show you what I've been helping to produce at Goodwood.

Enjoy!

OK, this is a WORLD EXCLUSIVE just for the Delorean Community.......

This is AREA 51 of the World's most luxurious Motorcar Company.

Normally people are shot, after seeing what goes on in here. :shock:

I have had special permission from Rolls-Royce to post this video.

All questions answered.... :ugeek:

That's the colour they want to be selling them in, those first few in the vid, charge a premium for that they could!

Yes Ju, I agree, the silver car is much better on the eye than the two tone car in the promo video.

The wrapped cars are full prototype "drones" that have been secretly road testing this last 12 months. The two tone car in the promo video is the car on the stand in Geneva. It is a re-worked drone prototype, to be a close to launch specification as possible. The silver car is the second ever re-worked drone. It was only finished on Friday last week!

The car is planned to go into production by the end of this year. There's still some snagging to resolve. (sounds familiar)

The black cloth covers over the interior and blacked out wheel centres as well as the wrap are to disguise the drones so that any spy pictures over the last year would not show all the detail of Wraith.

The giveaway however that both the Geneva two tone and silver car in my video are both ex drones are the "pop" studs across the interior, that the covers clip onto. ;)
