Phantom

Drawing on Charles Sykes’ Spirit of Ecstasy for inspiration, the icon’s billowing shawl has been transformed through the processes of photography, fluid dynamics and sculpture into a hand-polished billet of aluminium. Though solid, it is seemingly moving and alive. Mounted as a precious artwork in the Gallery, and framed by Piano Milori Sapphire veneer, this masterpiece reflects the true nature of a Rolls-Royce motor car; in Claude Johnson’s words, “the mysterious harnessing of great energy, and a beautiful living organism of superb grace.”

Prolific car collector and multiple Bespoke owner Michael Fux chose a gorgeous fuchsia to inspire the colour of his Fux Fuxia Dawn, revealed at the 2017 Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance. At the 2018 event, Torsten Müller-Ötvös, Chief Executive Officer of Rolls-Royce Motor Cars, presented Mr Fux with a new Bespoke Rolls-Royce sharing this boldly vibrant hue. His Phantom Extended in Fuxia is finished in a unique Arctic White, which shimmers with Fuxia Pearl iridescence – an imaginative variation on a theme.

A light and crisply elegant Seashell and Dark Spice interior complements the deep, lustrous paintwork of Bronze Phantom, complete with Single Seashell coachline which spans its length, and silver bonnet. Inside, its Bespoke clock surrounded by the Bespoke Cascade of Steel Gallery and door embroidery speak further to this Bespoke model’s understated elegance married with inspired opulence.

The rules have been rewritten with both style and gusto with Belladonna Purple Phantom. This exquisite, flawless and distinctive shade with its piano-shine finish contrasts superbly with a handpainted coachline in Seashell running the entire six metres of the car’s body. Inside, a two-tone contrasting interior in Arctic White and Purple Silk completes the look of this exceptional motor car.

A flawless Première Silver meets deep, lustrous and regal Salamanca Blue is this Bespoke Rolls-Royce, created with painstaking precision by our team of specialist craftspeople. For enhanced visual balance, Salamanca Blue also appears on the wheel centres of the part-polished 22-inch wheels. And as a final flourish, the Spirit of Ecstasy is illuminated from below.
