Another picture of the car appears elsewhere, same numberplate, long boot. It also appears too high on the front suspension. It does, however, appear to be a kosher Royce, bonnet line correct where it joins the radiator, and square badge (I think) on back bumper. Right hand drive seems a bit odd for an export model, but it is in HK. I have spent years cultivating my grumpy image; it has, from time to time, to be justified. -- Last edit: 2019-11-10 11:56:50
