London RRSpotting
Here are more of Rodd Sala's London shots from last week.
Crewe and Goodwood Rolls-Royces in their natural habitat - Mayfair.
We start with a nice early eighties Silver Spirit

Ooops, how'd that get in there...? Somebody actually bought one of those?
Back to the real cars.

But there are more Rolls-Royces and Bentleys in the indoor parking lots..

And apparently, these things fit in the Phantom boot to you can scoot about the city and park in small places:

These guys were actually developing that in Berkeley Square when I spotted them in 1978:

You just drop the umbrella and picnic basket option.
Thanks again to Rodd for taking the time to take these great street shots for us.
Rodd's real job is here: Park Ward Motors.
