Here's What a 300, 000 Rolls-Royce Was Like. in 1996

AUTOMOBILI LIMITED: This 1996 Rolls-Royce Silver Spur cost the equivalent of 300, 000. in 1996. So what did that money buy you 20 years ago? I took a closer look to find out. Cornelius Dr Vanderbilt: Sorry to be impertinent, Rolls Royce stopped being Rolls Royce a long time ago when they started using Chrysler Engine with a Rolls Royce stamp. It was the RR Engine that made RR different than any other car. Today, I would rather buy a fully loaded BMW 760. Although, I come from a Roller family, I drive a fully loaded BMW 750il V12. It is a Driver's car in Sports mode. BTW, all those who used to buy such cars have graduated to Helicopters and Jet Aircraft. In Europe, Fast Railways are the modus operandi: Paris to Brussels 1 hours 32 minutes, Paris to London 2 hours 30 minutes. from city centre to city centre. nope, I shall not buy a Rolls Royce.

Why does this video have 5000000 views? The host is unwatchable annoying. How the driving experience held up over time? That does that even mean? Experiences aren't meant to hold up. Why is he amazed that there are switches to turn things on and off and adjust things. It is a video of switches. He ignores the good parts of the car completely and fiddles like a 3 year old with all the switches. Like Beavis and Butthead in a stretch limousine. LOSER>>>Why do folks watch this? Millennial idiots?

No, no no Nowhere close to the top of RR's range in the day. I owned a Silver Spur Mulliner Park-Ward limited edition - they only built 65. Two phones, two (yes two) fridges, cocktail cabinet, cigar humidifier, American walnut with silver inlays. you get the message. I've had a few nice cars, But any R-R is better than any other car - period. My chauffeur loved it too

The GM 4L80E transmission in this car is one of the few things GM did brilliantly back in the 1990s. It was simply one of the best in the world even in baseline configuration, and Rolls Royce made the necessary modifications to take it to the next level. It was ultra smooth and solidly reliable - the latter quite a different story from the electrics in this car.

This guy is somewhat irritating. I love the car, it's pure quality that you expect from a Rolls. Not all this crap electronics they put into cars today. I happened to love all the wood, it makes a very rich appearance. I've watched videos about new Rolls which are nice, but this car is just wonderful. Wish I could afford it.

I rode in a Rolls Royce once and it was everything they described it as. Literally, the comfiest seats I have ever sat in and the roomiest car I had ever been in. And, believe them when they say those cars are smooth riders, can't even feel a bump.

The owner of the car/dealership looks incredibly familiar. In fact he looks A LOT like a grown up version of the dude who played the best friend on Doogie Howser. Max Casella. It's definitely not him obviously, but it looks SO much like him.

Doug I beg to diagree. I went to DMV in my mother's S class in 1992 and that had a steering which was motorized telescopic and used to go up n down with motor. Even the centre rear view mirror was also motorized.

This car may cost no more than a new middle class car, but as far as maintenance cost is concerned, it still is a high end vehicle. The repair and maintenance bills will be so high, they will make your eyes water.

I know Doug has anxiety and whatever, but I seriously think he was on something in this video. I've never seen him so happy and outspoken, fidgeting every half second. Doug, were you alright in may 2017?
