I had heard that when a Rolls-Royce breaks down the company rescue it and put it in a curtain sided truck, to avoid people ever seeing a broken down Rolls, I had considered this tale little more than an "urban myth". Here a £305,000 Phantom Drophead Coupé is seen having just entered a curtain sided lorry on Grove End Road.
