A new one from GLM for the Rolls fans...
I spotted this one about a week ago but didn't find a usable photo until today. Very nice model though the colors are a bit not to my liking. Not much of a Rolls-Royce fan either.

Peter, you get the scoops!
Thanks so much! RR fan here, this must be an early prototype, there are a number of obvious errors. The colors..pardon me!.."Colours" are both period correct AND culturally sensitive, too. You might try one and see, up close there's a certain charm to them that is quite powerful.

This Rolls P11 "Croydon" 1932 was originally owned by
Jessie Woolworth Donahue, daughter of F W Woolworth, it was one of approximately 11 made, Charlie Chaplin owned one too, the colours of the car are correct as it is, or was in the "Nethercutt" Museum, maybe still there?, the model which looks excellent will also be available with the top closed.
