From City AM:
... thanks to a concerted push to appeal to younger buyers, the 111-year-old company has managed to bring the average age of its clientele down by 13 years over the last decade to just 43.
“That means that for everybody who is 60 [buying a Rolls-Royce], you have somebody who is 20,” chief executive Torsten Muller-Otvos told City A.M.
Nope, mathematically wrong and seems unlikely. More likely is e.g. for every 60 year old buyer there are nine 42 year olds; or four 39 year olds.

Good point. I can't imagine anyone under 40 wanting a Roller.
AKH, would you want one? Me not. Too big.
MW - no I wouldn't want one for the same reason. Not sure about the image either.
Surely anybody in a Rolls looks like a nob no matter what age? A nice portmanteau for this is vermillionaire
Ah, but a vintage one, with the bonnet that looks like a barn? I know someone who had one and was hit by a lorry. The lorry was almost a write-off, but the Roller was only scratched. It also had a straight twelve engine, AFAICR.
I rarely share my story with people, not only because it put me at the lowest point ever but because it made me a person of ridicule among family and friends. I put all I had into Binary Options ($690,000) after hearing great testimonies about this new investment
strategy. I was made to believe my investment would triple, it started good and I got returns (not up to what I had invested). Gathered more and involved a couple family members, but I didn't know I was setting myself up for the kill, in less than no time all we had put ($820,000) was gone. It almost seem I had set them up, they came at me strong and hard. After searching and looking for how to make those scums pay back, I got introduced to maryshea03@gmail.com to WhatsApp her +15623847738.who helped recover about 80% of my lost funds within a month.
