Part 5: Rolls Royce
Phantom is the first Rolls-Royce motorcar to be introduced since the company was acquired by BMW in
1998. It is a Rolls-Royce for the 21st Century. Each Phantom is a unique combination of
state-of-the-art technology and Old-World craftsmanship constructed with meticulous attention to
detail. Designed without compromise, Phantom is the result of complete creative and engineering
freedom. Created with the desire to build the best car in the world, it takes an average of 450
hours and the skills of hundreds of dedicated craftspeople, artisans, designers, engineers,
mechanics, painters, sewing machinists and others to hand-build each car. Phantom's unique, advanced
aluminium space-frame is hand-welded from over 500 separate parts, with over 100 metres of weld.
Incredibly light but strong, it is both stiff and dynamic. When combined with the state-of-the art
suspension technologies, it creates the air-cushioned 'magic carpet ride' that is unique to
Rolls-Royce. Look inside the spiritual home of Rolls-Royce Motor Cars, at the assembly plant at
Goodwood and see the best car in the world being built.
