Rolls Royce:
In 1998, British luxury car maker Rolls-Royce has been sold to BMW for $571 million – despite promises of a higher bid from rival Volkswagen. At the time, BMW said that they wanted to invest about $1.6 billion in Rolls-Royce over the next 10 years. Skipping forward 12 years, the Rolls-Royce acquisitions proved to be very successful, both for BMW and the UK high luxury automaker. The latest Rolls Royce Ghost model is being said to be sold even before it hits the market. Rolls Royce is one of the best in Luxury Cars, most of the engines of the air crafts that i know is Rolls Royce.
Rolls Royce in the Philippines:
Rolls-Royce is the ultimate statement that’s part car, part masterpiece. Known for its unparalleled attention to detail, each Rolls-Royce automobile is individualized to an owner’s discerning taste, taking at least 450 man-hours to handcraft at the company’s Goodwood manufacturing plant in the United Kingdom. It’s this quest for perfection that has prevented the British luxury carmaker to appoint an importer-dealer in the Philippines before. Now, all of that’s changed with the official appointment of British Bespoke Automobiles as the official importer-dealer of Rolls-Royce Motor Cars in the Philippines.
A part of the Autohub Group, British Bespoke Automobiles is responsible for Rolls-Royce Motor Cars Manila, the newly appointed dealer team that will import the Rolls-Royce Phantom, Ghost, and Wraith motor cars in the country. The company is led by its President, Willy Tee Ten, Senior Vice-President Michael Cua, and General Manager Ryan Watson. Rolls-Royce Motor Manila is slated to open an interim facility by the latter part of 2013 and a permanent showroom by early 2014 in the upscale Bonifacio Global City in Taguig.

Bentley is my dream car because the exterior of Bentley looks classy in the same time it looks sporty, and that's my lifestyle. Here in the Philippines Bentley costs P 18,000,000 - P 32,000,000.
