I’ve never liked Rolls Royces. Too olde worlde for my liking, too square, too woody, too ridiculously garish looking. No thanks.

But I’ve changed my mind. Rolls Royce La Rose Noire coupe.

This one was built to a client’s specifications, to order. Price? 32. That’s $32. Million! USD. A$50 million!

No, I won’t be forking out this week, but this is the first time I’ve lusted after a Rolls.

The other point is, perfection! I’ve often thought, once you reach a certain point of perfection in cars, appliances, electronic devices, how do you exceed it? To me, Japanese cars like Toyotas, Hondas, Mazdas are so good that it’s hard to imagine anything more perfect. I think this exceeds them, but so it should.

I think this deserves an award for humour. On the radio a few mornings ago, the announcer was talking about whether Shakespeare should be modernised. As an example, he said, “What about To Be or Not To Be, in Bogan Yeah, Nah?”

L.O.L. !! I laughed out loud. Good one. Gold star to that man.
