Rolls-Royce Celebrates 2013 Centenary Alpine Trial Half-Way Stage
The Centenary Alpine Trial's half way stage happened to be an evening that promised live long in the memories of those that attended. It will also be firmly cemented in Rolls-Royce history as the event marked 100 years to the day that the original 1913 Alpenfahrt Rally would have been preparing to set off.
The gala evening which had a spectacular firework display, did more than to rejuvenate road-weary participants. With HRH the Duke of Gloucester, Honorary President of the 20-Ghost Club joining the celebrations, the numbers of cars and participants swelled with the arrival of the Rolls-Royce Enthusiasts' Club.
Rolls-Royce Motor Cars' CEO, Torsten Müller-Ötvös gave a nod to the company founders and recognized the spirit of adventure and kinship on which the trials have been based. He said " I feel sure that somewhere in this room this evening the spirits of Sir Henry Royce, Charles Rolls and Claude Johnson are watching us with profound approval and pride.”
