I do love Bill's jaundiced view on life. Very dry humour which goes down well here in the UK. I don't watch these reviews for the car, but rather for Bill's acerbic rants.

Hello Bill from Ron in a very wet and cold Manchester England. What a fantastic car to review the Rolls-Royce Dawn which was launched in 2015. In 1998 BMW paid £40 million to Rolls-Royce PLC who built engines for aeroplanes for the rights to use the Rolls-Royce name

There's an incredible amount of profit made on these cars. It has mostly 7 series parts and costs 3x the amount. And they still make money on the 7 series as well. Certainly a beautiful car but I just couldn't justify the cost as the one off over engineered cars of the past are gone. Cheers!

What could be more quintessentially British than a Rolls-Royce built by BMW?...After all, we speak Anglo-Saxon - from the Germanic Angles and Saxon tribes, and have a monarchy who only changed their surname to Windsor from Saxe-Coburg-Gotha in 1916 as the First World War made the original a bit untenable....

The turn off - At the rear, looking at the rear of this car the shape of the taillights and how they wrap around along with the chrome strip above the license plate resembles very much the rear of the 1990/91 Ford Crown Victoria. And vintage it is especially those buttons under the air vents on the dash that look like mini jukebox selectors at a greasy spoon diner. Oh, I forgot. That chrome circular I guess speaker cover in front of the door handle - Grandma had those on her colored matched radio and toaster from the 40s. Ending with this, the selector switch for the headlights. What the hell is that? Reminds me of a knob on a toaster. Imagjne that.
