This car has in the past few years been the subject of massive expenditure to bring it back to its former glory. The coachwork is by noted London coach builders Freestone & Webb in the form of a rakish sedanca with division.
The engine was treated to a lb35,000 rebuild by specialists McKenzie Guppy including new pistons, rebore, etc ect. As a result it is a paragon of smooth silent running & gives one an idea of how these cars were when new. Another lb35K or so has been spent on paint, trim & a whole host of other work.
The interior has had a full re-trim in light grey hide including the door cards. Matching sets of Wilton carpets were commissioned at the same time. The walnut was also stripped down & re-lacquered making the cabin an opulent place to be. Pleasingly, the original features were retained including the cocktail cabinet & rear alcove vanity sets which sit discreetly behind hinged doors & contain their original requisites such as hair brushes & perfume bottles.
The body was at the same time treated to a high quality two pack respray in the original colours of light grey with medium grey accents. It looks absolutely stunning, particularly in the half light at the end of the day. Indeed one can imagine where the moniker phantom came from when looking at the car. The sedanca roof material was also just replaced with new & the boot carpet renewed.
The car has been for the last four years amongst a small collection of Phantoms in Malaga Spain has returned to the UK in 2012. Now the car has been sold to Switzerland and has a propper Swiss registration. I must stress how good the condition of this car is & what a striking machine it is. We have just completed a pre-sale service on the car which included a new head gasket & oil change, tappet adjustment etc.

Rolls-Royce to show new Cullinan SUV in 'closed-room' events
Wed, Jan 24 2018Rolls-Royce plans a series of closed-room events starting this summer to show off its upcoming ultra-luxury SUV to potential buyers ahead of its expected unveiling in late summer. Codenamed the Cullinan and described by the company as an "all-terrain, high-sided vehicle," the SUV is Rolls-Royce's answer to ultra-luxury competitors like the Bentley Bentayga and Lamborghini's new Urus. It's expected to nudge the brand's vehicle sales past 5,000 a year after sales in 2017 fell 16 percent to 3,362, Automotive News reports. Engineers are now finalizing the handling of the vehicle on Germany's Nurburgring track. The Cullinan bears the luxury brand's signature long hood, vertical-slatted grille and upright, block-like fascia. It will be built on the same aluminum platform as the Phantom and is also likely to share the 6.75-liter twin-turbo V12 that makes 563 horsepower and and eight-speed automatic transmission, only in all-wheel-drive. Sales are expected to start near the end of the year with deliveries beginning in 2019.Related Video:
Rolls-Royce Wraith and Dawn order books closed globally
Mon, Mar 28 2022Rolls-Royce closed order books for the Wraith coupe and Dawn convertible at the end of last year in the U.S. Brand chief Torsten Muller-Otvos told Autocar that both have since been removed from every market. Final orders are still being produced at the Goodwood factory, so the last Wraith and Dawn won't likely leave the line until early next year. But with the taps turned off and nothing to replace them yet, Rolls-Royce will soon be two-thirds of the way done with what has been a very successful chapter in its history. Those two offerings, as well as the Ghost sedan, are based on the architecture BMW created for the 2008 7 Series. Now only the Ghost remains of the trio, at this point planned for production until 2030 when Rolls-Royce will convert being to an electric-only automaker. More modern products like the Phantom II sedan and the Cullinan crossover ride on the company's Architecture of Luxury. That structure will also support the Spectre battery-electric coupe meant to go on sale at the end of 2023. Spectre spy shots reveal a body that looks much like the Wraith; however, Autocar says, "Rolls instead views the Spectre as a belated successor to the coupe version of the seventh-generation Rolls-Royce Phantom, with the pair sharing a similar footprint and the Spectre therefore having its own distinct positioning within the Rolls range." The erstwhile Phantom Coupe's length and wheelbase were about 20 inches longer than those of a Wraith. The Phantom II sedan is but a couple of inches longer than the previous two-door. Point being, the Spectre might be silent, but it won't be small. There will still be some BMW in it, however, like Rolls-Royce's version of the stacked headlights BMW is about to debut on the i7 and X7, and there's speculation the top-dog BMW iX M60i powertrain will cross the Channel to enter Goodwood's service. Peak output for the BMW reaches 610 horsepower and 811 pound-feet of torque, which sound like fine numbers for wafting.
Grey Poupon to air new version of famous Rolls-Royce ad, this time with car chase [w/video]
Wed, 20 Feb 2013Grey Poupon mustard will revive the concept behind its famous Pardon Me commercials with a new ad that will air only once on television during this Sunday's broadcast of the Academy Awards.
The original spot, which showed two one-percenters sharing the condiment between their Rolls-Royces at an intersection, first aired all the way back in 1981, and variations of it continued up through 1997. Kraft, owner of the Grey Poupon brand, is hoping that reviving the commercial will boost sagging sales and raise the mustard's profile with a younger generation of fancy folk.
So why are we talking about this on Autoblog? Because the new version of the ad won't end with a polite passing of the bottle. Rather, we're told a car chase ensues when the Grey Poupon's owner doesn't get it back. We're assuming the two cars in question will again be a pair of Rolls-Royce sedans, probably Phantoms unless they go with more vintage model years.
