Rolls-Royce revealed its latest Boat Tail model at the Concorso D’Eleganza in Lake Como and Mark Smyth was there to chat to its designer, Alex Innes for Car Design News
Rolls-Royce is continuing to embrace the concept of coachbuilt motor vehicles, originally popular in the 1920s and ‘30s. It was an era when the engineering beneath the car was of less importance than the body created on it. It died off in the 1950s but recently the British luxury automaker took the decision to return to coachbuilding.
