1933 Phantom II
Barbara Hutton - Prince Mdivani Car
Continental Chassis 144 Inch WB
You are about to enter into an amazing part of Rolls Royce history. This Phantom II is featured in "The Rolls-Royce Phantom II Continental" book by Raymond Gentile. He writes: "The first production chassis of the series was a Continental and quite a spectacular car. The car is a drophead (convertible) with the Aluminum instrument panel containing every conceivable instrument available at that time, including altimeter, tachometer, tapley meter, temperature gauge. The chassis card lists the original owners requirement for 13 1/2 degree louvres and a bonnet four inches longer than the standard (for a charge of L4 was made) Although painted in metallic colors today, it is nevertheless a very imposing motor car."
This famous Phantom belongs to a private collector who has decided to reduce his vehicle collection after over 40 years of owning some of the most outstanding cars known world wide. His collection included the Embiricos 540K Mercedes, The McCormick Duesenburg J Murphy Convertible Sedan, The Lady Docker DE-36 Hooper Drophead, a 1947 Bentley Franay Drophead. His vehicles have all been restored in his own facility by the same three craftsmen, with over 90 years of combined experience in restoring and maintaining classic cars. The Prince Mdivani Phantom II Drophead was built in 1933 at a cost of over $20,000.00. The Car was built for the prince and purchased by his wife, Barbara "The Million Dollar Baby" Hutton. She was the Granddaughter F.W. Woolworth's and the niece of E.F. Hutton. It was apparent to all that one day she would become one of the richest women in the world. She came into her inheritance at the age of 10. By the time she was 21 her inheritance had ballooned in excess of 50 million dollars. After she received the inheritance in 1933, she gave her father a 5 million dollar thank you gift. In her lifetime she had seven husbands including Prince Mdivani and Cary Grant.
We can also provide the records for the recent work on the car. The Phantom II has a super look and provenance. There are various stacks of service records,owner history, ship logs and service history.

Rolls-Royce Cullinan spotted playing in the snow
Wed, Mar 9 2016This is no ordinary Phantom. Not that you'd call any Rolls-Royce ordinary, considering the brand's stratospheric pricing and hand-built pedigree. But this one is extra special, because it's a test bed for the British luxury brand's very first SUV, tentatively known as the Cullinan. We've known Rolls-Royce was out and about testing this brand-new, all-aluminum platform in the wild, but this is the first time we've seen it so clearly. It looks a little bit like a shortened Phantom sedan, with big swathes of metal seemingly cut away from the rear doors, but it's more than that. We can't be certain, but there's probably a big V12 engine underhood sending torque to all four wheels, and it looks to be riding high enough to offer some legitimate off-road capability. The aggressive tires are another giveaway that this Rolls may be going places no Phantom before it has dared. With Bentley finding success in the luxurious 'ute market with the Bentayga, we're sure Rolls-Royce is pushing to get its Cullinan into the driveways of one-percenters the world over as soon as possible. See the mule for yourself in our high-res image gallery above. As for us, well... we're just wondering what happened to that sweet rear spoiler.

Rolls-Royce delivers 6,000 cars in '23, the most ever in one year
Mon, Jan 8 2024It's good to be Rolls-Royce: In the year just passed, the British automaker sold more cars than ever. Rolls delivered 6,032 cars around the world — the most in its 119-year history — "despite continuing economic uncertainties and market volatility," the company said in a statement. The manufacturerÂ’s largest market last year was the United States, followed by China. The biggest-selling model was the Cullinan SUV, followed by the Ghost, the smaller of Rolls-RoyceÂ’s two saloons. In 2023, affluent buyers began taking possession of Rolls' first all-electric Spectre model in the autumn. Production of Spectre followed the expected demise of the brandÂ’s Wraith and Dawn models. Rolls-Royce cars are produced in Goodwood, southern England. The high-level brand became part of BMW in 1998. It has lately been emphasizing its custom Bespoke division, which generally accounts for higher profits builds. Treatments offered at extra cost to dress up a Rolls include special paint, styling cues and interior "scents." Current Chief Executive Chris Brownridge, who took on the role last autumn, said: ‘ItÂ’s especially encouraging to see the enormous interest in and demand for Spectre, supporting the decision to adopt a bold, all-electric strategy for future model development and production. The record level of Bespoke commissions, both by volume and value, also underlines our position within the luxury sector.” His predecessor, Torsten Muller-Otvos, departed the company in November, having led the group since 2010 and overseen record-setting performances. RollsÂ’s North American division recently announced that it would drop the prices of some “aging” units in dealer inventories by $15,000 for cars sold by the end of March. The deal, unusual for Rolls-Royce, stipulates that the models that could benefit are the $375,000 Cullinan and Black Badge Cullinan, as well as the $350,000 Ghost, Ghost Extended and Black Badge Ghost. Every little bit helps, we suppose.  Â
Top Gear has an Extra Gear problem | Episode Review
Mon, Jun 27 2016When the BBC announced Extra Gear, I was excited. As an avid fan of show's like The Talking Dead – companion show to AMC's hit The Walking Dead – a behind-the-scenes look at my favorite motoring show sounded promising. But with the fifth episodes of each show, I'm worried that Top Gear is suffering to keep Extra Gear interesting. We'll start with Chris Evans, inarguably the most heavily criticized member of the new Top Gear team. Evans is progressively less shouty and more comfortable filming while driving in each episode – the fifth is no different. He's almost likable in the Zenos E10 video, like a ginger James May, and he delivers accurate and eloquent driving impressions. The review is entertaining, until Extra Gear shows the producers cut a huge element – an old-versus-new sprint around the Race of Champions circuit at the Olympic Stadium in London. Former Formula 1 ace David Coulthard would drive a Caterham 360, while current F1 pro Daniel Riccardo rocked the Zenos. If the entire premise of Evans review is that the Zenos E10 is the newest of the new for British super-lightweight track toys, why did the producers decide to leave a race against the segment's standard bearer for Extra Gear? It's a baffling move, cutting a segment of the film that reinforces Evans' excitement over the Zenos. Rory Reid's Jaguar F-Type SVR piece is excellent. Fifty five years to the day after Jaguar test driver Norman Dewis raced to the Geneva Motor Show in a second E-Type for display, Reid would attempt the same feat in an SVR. If he failed, Jaguar wouldn't have a car to display. Dewis made the 750-mile trip with 13 hours of notice, and Reid would need to do the same. It's a brilliant, simple premise that reminded me of Jeremy Clarkson's so-called "Race against God" in a Jaguar XJ, way back in season 16. The history of the challenge and Dewis' gravelly commentary add gravitas. But the entire film goes by so fast. It's longer than Evans' Zenos video or Harris' BMW M2 film, but at less than ten minutes, Reid and the SVR deserved more screen time. Extra Gear poured salt in that particular wound with a great segment featuring Norman Dewis that deserved to be in the main show. Reid takes the famed test driver for a spin around the Dunsfold track, then, instead of the comedian of the week, the hosts interview Dewis on Extra Gear's couch.
