Rolls-Royce Motor Cars is celebrating one hundred years of the Spirit of Ecstasy

The famous flying lady mascot that inspires owners, enthusiasts and those working for the world’s pinnacle luxury brand.
To mark a year of celebration, every Ghost and Phantom produced at the home of Rolls-Royce in Goodwood will bear a Spirit of Ecstasy with the inscription Spirit of Ecstasy Centenary – 2011. This will be etched into the base of each statuette, in a specially selected font ITC Willow.
A number of events have also been planned to mark this special year. On 6 February – the date on which Charles Sykes’ Spirit of Ecstasy design was first registered – Rolls-Royce Motor Cars will host a drive through central London. One hundred contemporary and historic Rolls-Royce cars will make their way through the capital’s streets taking in key landmarks en route, such as Berkeley Square and Conduit Street, the current and original homes of Rolls-Royce in London.
“The Spirit of Ecstasy is perhaps the most famous automotive icon, gracefully adorning the prow of Rolls-Royce models past and present,” said Torsten Müller-Ötvös, CEO Rolls-Royce Motor Cars. “She was an inspiration for the founding fathers of our great company, as well as for owners and enthusiasts through the generations. Today her image continues to inspire and drive those of us who are fortunate enough to work for this unique brand, making the world’s most exclusive and desirable cars.”
Rolls-Royce Motor Cars will reveal details of further Spirit of Ecstasy inspired initiatives and events throughout her centenary year.

TADI

This big, sweet gray and white fellow named Tadi is very mature and confident. His name means “Wind Child” in a Native American language. 

At the age of 8, he’s ready to settle down with a nice, quiet family. But a family with children would be okay too, since he enjoys kids and loves to play with them. 

Tadi lived in his last home for 1 1/2 years, but his owner developed allergies and couldn’t afford to keep him. Before that, he was a stray with no permanent home. This might explain his wariness of other cats and some of his habits. With some commitment and persistence by his family, the certainty that he is loved by his humans, and some advice from our Adoption Team, he promises he can learn household habits.
Tadi loves to sit in your lap and cuddle. Tadi’s inquisitive face seems to say, “Cuddle me, hold me in your lap and pet me.” He sometimes hums along with you if you sing a song. Tadi would love to go home with you and promises he will try to be the best cat you ever had! Meet him today At Animal Friends.

RANDI

8 year old shorthair
Randi is a beautiful, affectionate cat who is looking for a new home to call her own and someone to love her forever. Perhaps it could be you?
Although she is initially shy, she warms up to visitors with time. She gravitates to anyone who is willing to pet her and wants nothing more than to curl up on your lap or to share your bed with you at night. When Randi isn’t sharing the couch with you, she enjoys sitting by a window and watching the world outside. Given her fondness for peace and quiet, we feel that Randi will be best suited to a quiet home.
If you’re looking for a sweet and attentive cat, please meet with an adoptions counselor at Animal Friends and ask to meet Randi. She would love to be the object of your affection!
