From 27 July, 'The Great Eight Phantoms', a Rolls-Royce Exhibition, will gather together the greatest Phantoms from the last 92 years in Mayfair, London.
The Exhibition will welcome the next generation of this most celebrated luxury item.
'The Great Eight Phantoms'
From its debut in 1925, a Rolls-Royce Phantom has stood as witness to history's most defining moments, from treaty signings to occasions of state and the events that have defined the world we live in today.
The Phantom is the conveyance of choice for the world's most influential and powerful men and women for 92 years, from The Beatles collecting their honours at Buckingham Palace, Field-Marshal Montgomery driving Churchill and Eisenhower, and numerous global superstars collecting their Oscars.
To celebrate this unprecedented legacy - a history still very much being written - Rolls-Royce will bring together the most famous examples of all seven previous generations of Phantom at 'The Great Eight Phantoms' Exhibition.
These include:
- The Aga Khan Phantom IV
- Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II’s Phantom VI State Limousine
- The first-ever Goodwood Phantom VIII
- The Fred Astaire Phantom I
- Sir Malcolm Campbell’s Phantom II
- Field Marshal Bernard Montgomery’s Phantom III
- John Lennon’s Phantom V
The eighth and last will be a New Phantom that will debut at the exhibition.
"The Great Eight Phantoms" will be the first time that this exceptional group of truly iconic luxury motoring pieces will be gathered under one roof.
This is such an uncommon pageant, it is no exaggeration to say we might never see the likes of it again.
