Market commentary

The PIIIs V12 is finicky but the cars are elegant and powerful. This ones fine coachwork is typical of the model; its intriguing history is exceptional. A good Rolls bought at an appropriate discount to allow it to be thoroughly recommissioned. The registration, DGY 1, can probably be sold to recoup a significant portion of the purchase price.
