Roaring Twenties "Rolls Royce Style" - MrNoBody - 02-16-2021
Thought I'd share with fellow vintage auto fans, the 1923 Rolls-Royce
Twenty (aka 20HP) Doctors Coupe Convertible.
Featuring an amazing 20-horsepower I-6 engine & 3-spd trans. :driving:
1922 Cost was aprroximately £2700 depending on 'extras'.
This one can be yours for only $110K + Taxes & Shipping...

£2700 in 1923 is worth £164345 today
£164345 is equal to $228,627
So it is quite the bargain at less than half that

My ten year old snowmobile has eight times the horsepower!
Hmmmmm....

I'm surprised the RR had only 20HP. My Dad assembled a 1909 EMF 30 (30 HP) from a basket case. It had an aluminum block in 1909! My brother still has it. He's had it up to 50mph, but it is a bit scary. The EMF was a fore-runner to the Studebaker.
