Inside Rolls Royce.
That diamond is about 1/10 of a mm too high. I noticed it I drove past the local food bank queue. The cars going back............

In parts that was my impression, Rolls Royce have some of the highest standards around but imo they over played it a bit. Thats understandable though as that programme was a great advert for them to portray perfection.
As an example, they had one of the finest jewellers in the country inserting the diamonds into the panels, i very much doubt the jeweller would return the panel to Rolls Royce if one diamond or a couple of them were at a slightly different heights to the others. Your not talking Franks jewellers down the local market here.

I've been round there.
The best bit was the guy who does the final inspections and marks up any faults and paint blemishes that need further work.
He was absolutely the epitome of a perfectionist.
The attention to detail is unbelievable.

Yes it was slightly over the top for the film crew, but my son is the manager for the wood department there and trust me the attention to detail there is second to none.
Any and i mean any blemish in any part gets throw away and remade, and if its a part that has to match in the whole car set is dumped and remade.
