  • Thanks to Auto Vogel & Partner AG in Switzerland, Cor had the opportunity to drive a 70 years old Rolls-Royce , with not even 120.000 km on the clock and only 3 owners from new.
    THis car comes from an era, that not even every Rolls_Royce was equiped with an automatic gearbox. No the gears needed to be changed manually. But ithey were perfectly synchronized. Strangely this car was RHD, although it was delivered new to Zürich in Switzerland. The gear lever was at the right though, which made it not very easy to get in and out of the car. All in all a tremendous experience to follow all the time the Spirit of Extasy.

    Showed my mother this video and she started crying. After her father had retired (he'd been working with the British in Iraq when it still was under their de facto rule and then later at the Iraq Petroleum Company himself) Her dad had imported one from Britain to Iraq in the mid 50s, I believe, and he'd always take her on roadtrips, chauffeuring her around like if she was royalty in 50s-60s Baghdad. On his death bed he wanted it sold so my uncle could open his second business. Seeing the interior brought back a lot of memories for her. Thank you!

      To be honest I am a person who loves to go fast. But driving a Rolls-Royce is always very special, so speed does not matter, but it is the ambience that counts.

    She's beautiful and just run-in. Can't imagine what she would be worth. It's great that Rolls Royce went back to cars after building umpteen war winning Merlons. So enjoyed the drive following the lady.

      Thank you very much Victor. Once in a while I sing in my videos. Look at the video about the Ford Mustang from 1966, where I sing an Area from an Opera. Because of Manchester I came to this idea, to sing a few lines from the Musical Hair in this video.

    Very nice but really an antique when it was made. The owner undoubtedly enjoyed the unique and nostalgic aspects. So foolish of you not to have worn the seat belt. But it's your life.

    • @DrivingwithGloves
      @DrivingwithGloves  Рік тому

      Yes, it drove also very antique. The seatbelts would not in the least fulfill todays safety standards, so from my perpective it would have more been a death trap than it would have increased my safety. But you have sharp eyes!
