FLASH - BMW To Supply Rolls Royce Engines



A news flash in the newspaper this morning says that BMW has agreed to design 
and supply Rolls Royce with engines in the 21st century.  The current R/R engine 
will be used until 2000.  BMW will also collaborate on a new, smaller Bentley 
convertible.    

The engines will be a V-12 and a turbocharged V-8.

BMW beat out Mercedes because it offered the "best overall deal".  There is no 
equity stake involved at this time.
