The subtle contrast presented in the Madeira Red and Jubilee Silver Phantom Coup\u00e9, for example, is inspired by a 1930s Phantom II. A bolder, more defined contrast can be seen in timeless yet highly contemporary presentation of Midnight Blue and Artic White that echoes the genteel ambiance of a very special 1930s Rolls-Royce Phantom II Continental, whilst a new glass clearcoat has been engineered to enhance Phantom\u2019s mirror-like shine.<\/p>\n<p>These extraordinary motor cars, among the last ever Phantom Drophead Coup\u00e9 and Phantom Coup\u00e9s, are currently being crafted at the Home of Rolls-Royce.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From its foundation 112 years ago, the story of Rolls-Royce Motor Cars has been defined by a commitment to setting and raising the standard by which all other luxury goods are judged.
