Phantom Goldarths review: RR Phantom Drophead Coupe - Smooth operator


Rolls-Royce has used the Phantom name on full-sized luxury cars and limousines since 1925, making it the longest used car model nameplate in automotive history. In the 20th century, the Rolls-Royce Phantom was a very low volume, hand-built limousine, which in its first four generations was custom coachbuilt to the customer's requests, and sometimes extravagant desires. Whilst automobile manufacturing over time became more mechanised and prolific, and vehicles from other manufacturers could be built in greater numbers and at lower prices, the Phantoms remained hand-built, and production of individual cars only began once the order was placed. The use of the name "Phantom" is a long tradition of naming Rolls-Royce models after ghosts or spirits.

Ian Kuah: Smooth Operator: The Rolls-Royce Phantom Drophead Coupé | Goldarths Review - The Online Luxury Magazine

Unlike a good wine that you might savor and fall in love with after just one glass, a car like the new Rolls-Royce Phantom Drophead Coupé requires far more than just a short drive before you can touch its soul. In fact, the Rolls-Royce Phantom Drophead Coupé is one of those cars that delight over time, slowly revealing their personality with continued use.

And it is only when you have really lived with this bespoke car for some time that you come to fully appreciate the thought that went into its design and engineering, and the loving care with which it was assembled.




 
Thanks, now I have another photographer's portfolio to look through:)
 
^Lol yeah!! i think that the design is a bit ridiculous especially the back!
