Very interesting history, as always here. Was quite sad to read, though. Like a listing of obituaries for great luminaries of yesteryear. The root of all evils, as the Bible warned us ....

Well , truth be told, "Rolls-Royce" cars aren't really Rolls-Royce. RR sold the car name and went on to be what it always was- a high precision engineering firm - just in the areas that can appreciate it: Aerospace, nuclear power, etc. Places where "correct" engineering is still a necessity for success.

Rolls cars are just an empty name for re-badged Beemers.

Rolls-Royce jet engines; now, that's a different kettle of fish. https://www.rolls-royce.com/
