Rolls-Royce use two mechanical wooden heels to test the durability of their Wilton carpets. The heels are rubbed backwards and forwards 100,000 times to ensure the carpet is strong enough.

There are no known photographs of Rolls and Royce together.

The Rolls-Royce R engine is the only engine type to have air, land and water world speed records.

Rolls-Royce opened a U.S. factory in Springfield, Massachusetts, in 1921, but it closed 10 years later because American customers preferred British-built models.

The latest Rolls-Royce nuclear reactors powering the Astute class nuclear submarine fleet do not need to be refueled throughout the 25-year life span of the submarines.

Awesome. Happy birthday Rolls-Royce.

A His and Her's limited edition Rolls would be nice!

The first Rolls-Royce, a 10hp model, sold for £395 ($700). Today it is worth more than £250,000. I wonder how many are still around?

I've never really been a rolls-royce fan. That shit about the subs not needing refeuling for their 25 year life span is pretty impressive though.
