Dear members,
here's something that came to me mind recently and I would like to ask for your help. In ca. 1989, I frequently used to watch a (probably French) television series which was about the adventures of the chauffeur of a (silver?) Rolls Royce (probably a Phantom VI IIRC). Sadly, I cannot recall the name of the series after all these years. Does somebody happen to remember the series? Please let me know if that is the case. Thanks a lot in advance!
Best regards,
Christoph

Wow, that was a quick reply, thanks a lot! Nevertheless, your first suggestion is too new while the other one is too old. As I said, I'm pretty sure it was a French series, rather light-hearted although the main character was always involved in solving crimes. Besides, I don't think the car was a Silver Cloud as I'm convinced it had double headlights although my memory might deceive me. Still, I'm certain it wasn't filmed in the States.

It must be "La belle Anglaise":
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0197141/
There were 2 "seasons" - 1st one with old Rolls, 2nd one with two RRs - old and newer model.
Remember this series - I also saw it in TV in 1990

It is indeed. Just by seeing the picture of the main character on imdb I'm 100% certain that you've found the right series. Thanks a lot, Weasel! You've made my day!
Best regards,
Christoph
