The team of engineers, designers and craftspeople that personalize newly purchased Rolls-Royces are known as the ‘Rolls-Royce Bespoke Collective.’ Fancy name, right? Anyway, while most of us wore new holes in our sofa cushions during 2020, the Bespoke Collective lot were really rather busy.
The luxury carmaker says that almost every car it built last year was specially tailored in some way by the team, with a huge increase in personalization over 2019. Impressive.
Fancy seeing what those rich folks spent their money on? Keep reading.
