Over the years, Nigeria has been the biggest market for Rolls Royce in Africa, with an estimated 230 units on the roads. This figure keeps growing as the day goes by, and even the high price tag cannot stop a few from owning the top-notch luxury display. The Rolls-Royce brand is so cherished that it’s not everybody’s car. Those who buy them do not have time for negotiation, and these people walk into the showroom and have their car choice fixed up to their taste in terms of the transmission system, choice of interior and exterior colours, and anything else they want.
Rolls-Royce is a luxury at its peak and the very best of its kind. Tolu Badamosi, brand manager of Rolls Royce Motor Cars in Nigeria, explained that there is always a timeline to confirm the features a customer needs in the car, such as rear theatre entertainment, fridges, rear and side curtains, and the like. He noted: “Rolls Royce Motor Cars freaks are pampered that, when we get your orders as to how you want you’re going into production to look like, we give you up to two to three weeks to sit with madam to think of how you want your car to look and if there are any changes to be effected.”.
Maintaining a Rolls Royce in Nigeria is not a problem as a team of expatriates are sent from Spain and Greece to manage the aftersales service department. “One thing I can tell you is that, you can never ever have the Rolls Royce stuck on the road”. He concluded.
