this was the car before Rolls got mad and told the guy to remove the grille.

turns out a rich saudi saw it on the road and asked Rolls for their new car.

And Rolls got embarrassed because they had to tell him they didnt make that car.

So they sued the guy to get rid of the grille.

And he made a big show of it, "breaking down" in front of the courthouise so he could show the car off.

ultimately he lost the battle and had to remove the grille.

I THINK the original car was destroyed.

the original car caught fire on the way back from a show and burned to the ground.

>grill actually attached to body
0/10 would not ditch at side of road

It's called the Beast. It's a merlin engine with a car built around it.
Or, rather, a Rover Meteor, which is a derated Merlin with the superchargers removed and power output for a gearbox rather than a prop.
