"Here it is, the new smaller Rolls-Royce codenamed RR4 that has got a nickname ?baby? Rolls. Now the car that we have seen as a sketch shows itself with little disguise.
The car is sharing its platform with the new 7-series most likely.
Baby Rolls shows us here more details of his body, doors, bonnet and door handles.
Look at the pictures closely and you will see that the hinges on the rear door are not where they typically are. Hinges are on the rear of the door making it official that the new Rolls gets suicide doors(Rolls-Royce calls them coach doors)."

'Baby' would probably be bit of a misnomer for any RR. 
Smaller then it's current brethren yes... but small??? A small Rolls? Would that be contradictory?

Am I the only one that thinks it's a bit of overkill to actually scratch or key the crap out of these mule cars to make them less recognizeable? Or, do you think the test drivers just do it for fun? "Hey, look at me, I keying the crap out of a Rolls AND getting paid for it! HAHAHA! I love my job."

You're taking the poor guys place here on the forum. You can certainly see the RR lines on this one. But it's so hard to discern what the front looks like. Thanks for sharing tho
