Rolls-Royce Motor Cars: Making a Legend

A beautiful book about the car, the company and especially about the craftsmanship. Each car is handmade and this book highlights the people and their devoted efforts to make each car a work of art. Even if this is the closest you get to owning, driving or even seeing this car, the book makes any car enthusiast smile.

Excellent book about the people and processes that make Rolls-Royce the quintessential luxury automobile builder. Exquisite photographs.

I had just completed reading a biography of Henry Royce, the founding engineer of Rolls Royce and I was impressed as much with the quality of the man and his pursuit of perfection as I have been with the quality and perfection of build of the cars. Anyone who wishes to learn what the true meaning of the pursuit of perfection means should acquire this book and go through it slowly in order to absorb its lessons.

Gave this gorgeous up-to-date book as a birthday gift to a longtime good friend who works in the automotive accessories industry. After the party, he and his girlfriend and I sat together and looked at the entire book, page by page. The book's binding, paper stock, and digital photography are top quality. The text reveals the precision work entailed to manufacture Rolls-Royce cars, which I found educational and fascinating. Amazing how some of the paint colors would look hideous on other car brands, yet look so sexy on the cars photographed in this book. A real stunner!

I am a car buff and more of a muscle car buff, but this book was very well written and researched. I enjoyed the inside information on the entire process that creates a Rolls Royce. It's a good coffee table book.

I thought I already knew a lot about this pinnacle marque, but I learned a great deal more. The stories are incredibly well-written and the pictures are fabulous! The quality of the paper and binding is second to none.

Amazing Book.

A Rolls Royce automobile is an absolute work of art in every detail. So is this book! The photography is stunning and the writing is very engaging.

Super and well wrapped for travel.

Prima boek, schitterende foto's

Wer Freude hat an der Automobilproduktion, der findet hier ein tolles Buch. Es wird in fantastischen Fotos gezeigt, wie Rolls-Royce seine Fahrzeuge baut. Die Qualität des Layouts und der Bilder ist sehr hoch. Natürlich bleibt es nicht aus, wenn so ein Buch mit offizieller Unterstützung des Herstellers gemacht wird, dass es sehr werblich ist im Sinne der Firma. Das tut aber dem Lesevergnügen keinen Abbruch.

I think this is the perfect book for anyone looking to learn about the modern collection of Rolls Royce motor cars , it goes into the main models of RR made at Goodwood and explains in depth about the manufacturing and bespoke styling of these vehicles, there is some stunning photography of the cars that any Rolls Royce fan will truly appreciate and definitely worth a purchase. I would say if you are interested in reading about the more classic collection of Rolls Royce then this book is not suitable as there is very little mention of older models (pre 2004). I have thoroughly enjoyed reading this book and it is one of my favourite car books that I own.

This book covers all aspects of Rolls Royce design and assembly/manufacture in great detail. A must buy for any devotee of this magnificent automobile.
