One of British motoring's most glamourous brand names is celebrating after a significant increase in sales over the last 12 months.
Rolls-Royce, which Car Finance customers may know has a long and prestigious history, has announced that sales of its cars around the world increased by 25 per cent during 2007, compared with the previous year.
Car Credit and Car Loans customers may like to know that, in particular, a strong demand for all Phantom models spurred on the growth of the company, while new dealerships in Dubai, Kiev and Dresden increased the global reach of the brand.
Ian Robertson, chairman of Rolls-Royce, said: "Everybody at Rolls-Royce is delighted with this tremendous result. It confirms Rolls-Royce as the most desirable brand in the super luxury market and is a credit to the passion and dedication of our teams at Goodwood and around the world."
The first Rolls-Royce was made in Hulme, Manchester in 1904 by Henry Royce and Charles Stewart Rolls.
