Rolls Royce Phantom

" Strive for perfection in everything. Take the best that exist and make it better. If it doesn't exist, create it. Accept nothing nearly right or good enough."
- Henry Royce

The Rolls-Royce Phantom referred to among enthusiasts as the 2003. This was the first Rolls-Royce developed under the wings of BMW. In 1998, Rolls-Royce was sold along with Bentley to the Volkswagen group. However, the rights to the Rolls-Royce name were owned by Rolls Royce Aerospace. That, in turn, sold the name to BMW.

The 2003 shares about 15% of its parts with the BWM range. A perfect combination if you ask us; motoring BMW, the stunning style and class of a Brit. BMW tapped into a separate dealer network specifically for the Phantom's launch. They wanted to avoid the same mistake that was made with Mercedes before; the Maybach was seen as the ultimate Mercedes.

The 2003 Phantom has a 6,750cc powerplant, which is a nod to previous Rolls-Royce models. This time it was a 12-cylinder BMW engine, which brought 453 ornamental horses. In 2005, the first facelift was unveiled. So our model has a longer wheelbase (250 mm) and got some options like the Power reserve gauge. So the Phantom does not have a tachometer, but it shows how much percent of its power is still available. In addition to this, umbrellas came in the rear doors and the distinctive Spirit of Ecstasy figure automatically disappeared in the grill when the car was closed.

The Phantom is a statement of luxury and comfort. After electrically closing curtains in the rear (side windows and rear window), you can enjoy the sunroof above you in peace. Driving yourself, by the way, is also a treat. The overwhelming torque and ultimate agility make for a fantastic driving experience.

And then to your rational considerations; this phantom has driven about 10,000 kilometers per year and has always been serviced at the dealer or specialist. She is in excellent condition and by our specialist Veerman, declared completely healthy. Because she has driven a bit more than average pampered Rolls, she is already at her residual value. Just like a beautiful woman; you know she has been driven before, but do you really care? She is ready for many more smiles a litre. Miles a litre we're not going to give away, that's also far from important. Right? See you soon!
