Rolls-Royce Builds 3,000th Phantom
13th March, 2007 | ||||
Rolls-Royce Motor Cars has produced the 3,000th Phantom since the launch of
the company in January 2003. It was commissioned by a UK customer through
Rolls-Royce Motor Cars of London and was delivered last week. The car’s new owner collected the Diamond Black Phantom from the showroom
in Berkeley Square. Rolls-Royce Chairman and Chief Executive, Ian Robertson said, “Our home
market has always been very special to us. It remains one of the most important
for the company and our London dealer in particular has been consistently ranked
as one of the top three in the world since we launched the Phantom in 2003. It
is fitting that they have sold such a significant car.” He continued, “An advantage of operating in the rarefied atmosphere of the super
luxury segment means that I regularly meet our customers. It has been a pleasure
to hand over this car today to someone who is so enthusiastic about the Phantom.” The order for the 3,000th Phantom built at Goodwood was placed with Stephen Foulds,
the Sales Manager for the Rolls-Royce Berkeley Square dealership. To date, Stephen
has sold more than 130 Phantoms, making him the most successful Rolls-Royce
salesman in the world. He puts his success down to an exceptional product and an
excellent location. However, a passion for and deep knowledge of the brand play
a significant part in Stephen’s achievement. The 3,000th Phantom features Black Ash veneer with silver inlay, black
leather trim with contrasting stitching and two 12-inch DVD screens in the rear.
