All rise… for the Rolls-Royce Phantom VI

We have carefully avoided any discussion royal wedding on the site this week, if only to give a single, happy retirement dresses and dishonored by the ambassadors Malawi. But we assume it is interesting to mention the car is not so affordable that will also be a star's wedding tomorrow.

RR went to number plates - HM Q does not need them, and not a license - in tempered glass, then removed from the Spirit of Ecstasy hood ornament, and replaced it with a measurement model Solid Silver St. George slaying the dragon . Nice.

Terms of power, Rolls-Royce actually refused to publish the performance of the engine when the car came out - you will see a terrible Gauche -. "Adequate" But simply describe it as the Rolls Royce expert, Frank Dale and his stepson to prepare 6 , 75-liter V8 makes about 220bhp. Not the most efficient, but a 10 mph gust is complete the unit daily.

Surprisingly, there are no other mods included Regal: only the leather factory, and the standard Wilton carpets, wooden doors, electric windows and air conditioning.

However, the wife probably has other things to come distract Friday. Just wondering if another Audi would be a good idea. We can certainly see the queen future looks bright in a Spyder R8 V10.

1939 Rolls-Royce Phantom III Cabriolet

In a world of plastic cars with hybrid heartbeats, the joy of driving is a dying art.  This 1939 Rolls-Royce Phantom III “Vutotal” Cabriolet by Labourdette recalls an era when driving was always an artful experience.  Yet this is not your standard Rolls Royce Phantom III, this is the result of a complete rebuild by the Parisian designer Henri Labourdette.  Labourdette tore the Phantom III down to the bones, adorning its body with gold plating and brass fixtures on a shape that stretched sensually from bumper to bumper.  The “vutotal” term comes from that heavy slice of glass that rests above the instrument panel, a sharply-squared windshield that sits in a welcome contrast to the curves below.  As we said of the 1948 Buick Streamliner, curves like these inspire poetry… [fairfield concours d'elegance via ab]

Rolls-Royce Phantom & Phantom EWB (2003 onward)

Rolls-Royce Phantom, 2003, # SA91568454U121614 After the BMW Group in a clever coup, July 28, 1998, he became custodian of the cars of the future Rolls-Royce brand, began to "Project Rolls-Royce", spending much. For years, various employee groups completely switched between BMW headquarters in Munich, Germany, and southern England. a place near Goodwood, West Sussex, had been acquired by a new plant to be erected. January 3, 2003 marked the end of the "initial period" when the result of four years of intense development has started: the new Rolls-Royce Phantom. The model name does not contain the risk that ever since the introduction of the "New Phantom" (later The Phantom), in 1925 there was a phantom model in the series. The appointment was right, because the size has not had too much difference between the new and the "great" the Rolls-Royce Phantom in the old days. Step 3570 mm (140.55 in) was only slightly less than 3683 mm (145) and Rolls-Royce Phantom VI, whose production was discontinued in the early '90s. Height 1,632 mm (64.25 cm) and width of 1990 mm (78.35 inches) are almost the same level as the pioneer legend, which measures 1,750 millimeters (68.90 inches) and 2006 mm (78.98 inches), respectively. Rolls-Royce Phantom 2003, # SCA1S68004UH0003 However, any comparison between the "dinosaurs", as the ghosts of the past - thanks to very conservative design - had been called many times and again proved that was light years ahead. The four-door body was made in an aluminum space frame, lighter and more rigid than a steel body the same size. Rear hinged rear doors combined with easy access for rear seat passengers, with the advantage that the photos be taken without a door frame in the image is projected when the door was open. Given that the client has been seen as potential customers that the body was designed "media-friendly". A new alloy 6749 cc V12 engine has the ability to shoe-horned into the engine compartment. With four valves per cylinder, the engine produces 460 hp (338 kW). It was necessary, however - as not installed turbocharger - to accelerate over 5300 rpm at full power to win. This level was not found acceptance with Rolls-Royce previously and could be a special reason for the two phases of the disposal system, which uses a device to close a valve at low rpm which reduces the exhaust note for a stampede inaudible. A gearbox six-speed automatic power transferred to the rear axle. Air springs on all four wheels turn provide a pampering. Automatic level control system was part, too. The question was, however, if the great vehicle of 2 ½ tons, with a total length of about six meters (230 approx. In) do not fit exactly be described as a "perfect owner-driver"? The engineers have also succeeded tremendously well-made long-term owner of the Rolls-Royce to feel "at home" on board, the new Phantom. No compromise on the choice of material - from the finest leather, pure wool carpets and wood carefully selected. "Bullseye" air conditioning outlets were exact copies of what was found on previous models, and that you could say some of the knobs in the shape of the dashboard, too. Phantom was available in 5 places. Version "Lounge" is equipped with a rear seat has room for three passengers. Optional version "Theatre" can be selected from two individual rear seats in the center console - when the four-seater. In 1904 Frederick Henry Royce (from 1930 Sir F. Henry Royce, Bart.) And Charles Stewart Rolls, son of Lord Llangattock, founded the Rolls-Royce. During the 99th year history of Rolls-Royce Phantom has shown that the pace of the BMW Group must put the future. In 2004, a limited edition of "Centennial" 35 Rolls-Royce Phantom was built to celebrate the 100 anniversary of the brand. They were highlighted by a silver Spirit of Ecstasy with Rolls-Royce in Goodwood, each weighing about 300g (much heavier than normal black) and comes in a box for each customer in addition to a standard mascot Stainless steel is made in ancient "lost wax".

Despite being designed by BMW, the Phantom only 15 percent of its components with the 7 Series.
