One day, Maharaja of Alwar was walking in casual Indian dress in Bond Street, London. He saw a Rolls Royce showroom and went inside to inquire about the price and features of their cars.
Considering him a just another Poor Indian citizen,
showroom salesmen insulted him
and told him he is wasting his time. After this insult, Maharaja came back to his Hotel room and asked his manager to call the showroom that Maharaja of Alwar is interested in purchasing few Rolls Royce Cars.
After few hours Maharaja reached the Rolls Royce showroom again but with his full astonishing royal manner and in his royal costume. This time he was welcomed warmly and all the salesmen were bent with respect. Maharaja purchased all the seven cars that they had at showroom at that time and paid full amount with delivery costs.
After reaching India, Maharaja ordered municipal department to use all those seven Rolls Royce cars for cleaning and transporting city’s waste. World’s number one Rolls Royce cars were being used for transportation of City’s waste, the news spread all over the world rapidly and the reputation of Rolls Royce Company was in drains.
Due to such reputation damages, they sent a Telegram to the Maharaja for apologies and requested to stop transportation of waste in Rolls Royce cars. Not only this but they also offered repair and other services free of cost. Maharaja finally acceded and stopped using them for municipal department.
