Well I'm going to start a new thread because the old one got archived.

To start off, I ask where this test couses was. I found out and it is a place called Mira.
http://www.mira.co.uk
I am now going answer some questions from the previous thread.
Quoting MNeo (Reply 11):
Its ether BMW or VW.
I think BMW has Bentley while VW has RR |
The answer in fact is VW own Bentley and BMW own the name RR (car side).
Both RR's and Bentleys where manufactured at Crewe untill 2000 when RR moved out to where they manufacture them now and Bentley stayed at Pyms Lane Crewe Cheshire.

Also BMW only ever brought the name 'Rolls-Royce' and not the cars, parts and rights. I think most of this information is correct.
Tom.
