Rolls-Royce Motor Cars has hand built 25 Bespoke cars called Phantom Black.
These special cars demonstrate the best in Rolls-Royce design, engineering and
craftsmanship and emphasise the Phantom’s impressive performance and dynamic
character.
High lustre metallic Diamond Black paint is used on the body, complemented by
twin silver coach lines. The 21-inch alloy wheels come fitted with high performance
Goodyear run flat tyres and feature unique black detailing and centre caps with
RR badges, engineered to stay upright even at speed. At the rear of the Phantom
Black, visible tail pipes hint at the car’s performance.
Under the bonnet the 6.75 litre V12 engine has been treated to gloss black
inlet manifolds, chrome plated top covers and new black Rolls-Royce badges.
Inside, soft black leather upholstery is edged with Seashell piping. Black
ash wood veneers are used throughout and while dark in finish, still allow the
natural grain to show through. A silver pinstripe adorns each door capping. The
dashboard is finished in special black metal foil with a finely embossed diamond
pattern. A slightly thicker rimmed steering wheel adds to the dynamic spirit of
the Phantom Black.
Graeme Grieve, Sales and Marketing Director, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars, said,
"Phantom Black uses a number of new Bespoke finishes and materials to create a
contemporary car that blends aesthetics and engineering, emphasising the dynamic
character of the car."
