Jewel in the Crown at Rolls-Royce Celebrates a Decade

The Rolls Royce of Rolls Royces is celebrating being at the top since its launch in 2003.  To laud this illustrious vehicle, there has never been a better time to take advantage of its range of superlative features through short-term hire.

Given the position occupied by the Phantom within the Rolls Royce family tree, it is no surprise that the life-cycle of the current model has lasted for ten years, and the car still looks impeccable in its class.  Of course, that may have a lot to do with the fact that this is a car which is practically peerless.  Perhaps only Bentley has managed to take steps towards the prestige of the Phantom, but even that is a debate hotly contested.

The Phantom marked a watershed for the marque, and that standard holds true to this day.  Ten years ago, Rolls Royce marked New Year’s Day with the first Phantom off its production line at a minute after midnight on the 1st of January 2003.  The historic event celebrated the return to Goodwood, seat of more than just the Lord March.  Rolls Royce went back to its ancestry with the move back to Goodwood.  The Phantom is likely to stay king of the castle until 2016, when the Spirit of Ecstasy may replace the current car.

Needless to say, Rolls Royce designed the car with longevity in mind, and this is still seen in its styling and credentials today.  Your chauffeur drive hire experience will let you experience this first hand.  The choice of one of the 5000 Phantom Dropheads, Extended Wheelbases, and Phantom sedans produced with flawless mastery in the last ten years would certainly present a great opportunity to set 2013 off to a flying start.

The Phantom achieves an uncompromising attachment to all things Rolls Royce whilst exhibiting new-found freedom in design and engineering.   You will drive or be driven in a complete cocoon of luxury and elegance, and yet experience the liberating design principles applied to this latest Rolls Royce.  From its experimental beginnings, the car quickly became a modern legend.  Advanced air suspension, V12 engine, and dynamic chassis create an experience that is simultaneously cutting-edge, whilst making the vision of Sir Henry Royce a living monument.  Whether you choose sedan, Drophead, or Extended wheelbase, you will be thrilled to revel in the lavish interior, with full-grain leather and wood. Get the feeling being carried in the carriage of our Rolls Royce Phantom watching our Official Film here!
