Initially I thought it was the car that sold on collecting cars some time ago

https://collectingcars.com/for-sale/198 ... -5-turbo-2

I'd love a Turbo 2. I think Sanjay still has a white one.

Bit of Cumbrian history for you. Lord Lonsdale, was known as the yellow earl as he loved yellow and bought everything in yellow … burnt through all the family money on his passions … had a fleet of yellow rolls Royce’s . Was the first president of the AA ( hence yellow badge) .

If you’re interested have a read here. Fascinating guy
