Looks like something is going well at Rolls-Royce - record sales for the third year in a row (from www.GermanCarScene.com):

Luxury carmaker Rolls-Royce, has announced its third consecutive annual sales increase, after delivering 805 cars in 2006.

Speaking at the Detroit Auto Show, Rolls-Royce chairman Ian Robertson commented “This points to a sustainable future for the company that will see expanded operations at Goodwood and the Phantom joined by further models.”

Rolls-Royce export cars to more than 50 countries, with America being its biggest customer, followed by Britain, then China.

They can expect a further surge in sales, once their newly debuted convertible goes on sale mid 2007.

Not bad for a one model lineup. It will be interesting to see how the Chinese market plays out - I bet it won't be long until they're outbuying the US.
