You sure are a genuine enthusiast and really wanted this car which you secured at an incredibly favourable price. Two recommandations: 1) join the RROC asap, it is a fantastic support for owners of these cars and if you participate in their dedicated tours, even better. 2) I once was told a recommandation that if you drive a Rolls 500 miles a year, it will cost you $5000, if you exercise it to 5 000 miles a year, it will cost you $500. I tried both with a 1936 R-R over a decade and the latter held true:) Enjoy it as often as possible until you decide to tranfer the custody to another enthusiast.", "likes": 1, "timestamp": 1690927408, "type": "comment"}, {"id": 12084249, "authorName": "brakeservo", "authorUrl": "https://bringatrailer.com/member/brakeservo/", "bidAmount": 0, "content": "@mabaker5479 - please let us know what it's like to drive - these were designed with no comfort contemplated for the typical 5'6\" 105 lb British chauffeur of the time.
