DUBAI, 6 March 2007 — The first coach-built Rolls-Royce Phantoms to be delivered anywhere in the world have arrived in the Middle East. Rolls-Royce importers in Abu Dhabi and Dubai have welcomed the arrival of these luxurious vehicles, with each being built to a specific order.
AGMC in Dubai has welcomed the arrival of a white coach-built Phantom with a 400mm extended wheelbase. Another coach-built Phantom, extended by 1,100mm, has been delivered to a customer in the UAE by Abu Dhabi Motors.
“An additional row of rear facing seats creates a sumptuous lounge area in each of these very special coach-built Phantoms”, said Peter Schoppmann, regional director of Rolls-Royce Motor Cars for the Middle East.
“With bespoke features such as a custom-built retractable privacy glass divider, pop-up television, a gold-plated Spirit of Ecstasy and some interior diamond applications, these really are highly individual hand-crafted cars.”
These Phantoms have been manufactured by the only approved coachbuilder for Rolls-Royce Motor Cars. Coach-built Phantoms can be extended between 400mm and 1,100mm.
The increased length of the extended vehicles offers even more flexibility on rear seating arrangements as well as other bespoke features.
Each car is hand-built, ensuring that the finished cars meet the very exacting standards set by Rolls-Royce.
The Middle East market currently claims the highest number of requests for coach-built Phantoms worldwide.
