Having seen one in person... they are *huge* vehicles, even by today's standards and nothing has its stately presence on the road. Nothing.

A former coworker had one. He drove it to work once.

ONCE.

He was an institutional bond trader who had an S63 AMG as his daily driver.

He made a lot of money.

Here's the funny thing. You've mentioned your family isn't keen on used cars...
"Hey, mom, I'm buying a used car."
"What??"
"A Rolls."
"Er, uh..."
Best way to shut down complaint ever.

So much class, it hurts. 10/10 would buy.

Yes, that's exactly what I should do. Except I'd have to save up $80k more to buy that one

I still need a job before I can buy a fancy car :P

I'd shoot for a Silver Shadow or Silver Spur. Always loved those.

Institutional Bond.

You can do better on price; my ex-boss bought a well-sorted, very good driving SCIII with the Webasto sunroof for about $32,000 at a classic car auction a few years ago.

I rode in it a few times, and even drove it one time following him from the service center to his garage; it felt like a strange cross between a fifties Cadillac and a fifties 1-ton truck.

I thought I was the only one who noticed it. Seriously massive machines and looks heavy to drive.
