the real thing...
Originally a 1925 Phantom I with cabriolet coachwork by Hooper, it was sent to Belgium in 1935 and re–bodied by Heri & Joseph Jonckeere.
It had several colour schemes before being restored to its present black over red, including white and, more famously, gold — which (according to popular legend), had 6lb’s of real gold dust followed by 17 coats of clear!

* Black with a red interior (as shown at Pebble Beach in 2005),
* Custom made “Spirit of Ecstasy”,
* Mounted on a red leather base with a genuine Rolls Royce badge
(the Garage43 plaque has since been replaced with one bearing the correct details).
