Watching a luxury car rotting or left abandoned by its owners is nothing short of a nightmare, and if it is a car as expensive as a Rolls Royce, it can even make your heart and soul ache. Rolls Royce is known for making ultra-expensive cars, which are considered the pinnacle of luxury in automobiles. Yet, we have come across a few instances in which a few Rolls Royce cars are left abandoned in India for the reasons best known to their respective owners. Here’s a list of five such Rolls Royce cars, which could have been a part of the glorious past, but now are dying a slow death.
