Did an Indian king use six Rolls Royce cars to haul trash?

I heard that an Indian (Asian) king, who was insulted by the showroom manager of Rolls Royce, London, in 1920, bought six Rolls Royce cars, and used them for hauling trash. Is it a real story?|||didn't hear anything about it|||Yes, It was Maharaja Bhupinder Singh (12 October 1891, Patiala鈥?3 March 1938, Patiala). He reacted to the refusal of a new order of Rolls Royce by the British Rolls Royce company. But he used his old Rolls Royece to haul garbage dung and filth in Patiala city. This incident was happened in 1930.

U KNOW INDIANS CAN DO ANYTHING TO PROVE THEIR SUPERIORITY.


NEVER INSULT AN INDIAN OR U SHOULD BE PREPARED FOR THE AFTERMATH.|||No - it was the Sultan of Brunei. It was not in 1920, but much later - may be 1970's.|||don't know but would've loved seeing the face of those executives he showed up
