Rolls-Royce Phantom Series II to make UK debut at Salon Privé

Rolls-Royce has confirmed that its new Phantom Series II will make its UK debut at next week’s Salon Privé event.

Revealed in May, the updated version of Rolls-Royce’s flagship model also made its first American appearance at the recent Monterey Car Week. The current Phantom was first shown in 2017, with a ‘Series II’ model getting a number of changes, including a new grille that features new polished horizontal lines and the ability to illuminate for the first time.

For its UK debut, Rolls-Royce has created a special model with a two-tone paint finish incorporating black over Monteverde green and a subtle pink coachline.

Also on show at Salon Privé, at Blenheim Palace, will be a Rolls-Royce Ghost Black Badge – a sportier version of the firm’s smaller luxury saloon – with unique St Tropez (orange) and Twilight Purple models set to be on display.

“Salon Privé is an important event in the luxury calendar, making it the perfect place for the Phantom Series II, the marque’s magnum opus, to make its UK public debut. We will also showcase a highly Bespoke Black Badge Ghost at the event. I look forward to meeting our esteemed clients, friends of the marque and media at this year’s gathering.”

Salon Privé is held at Blenheim Palace, near Oxford, and begins on August 31 and runs until September 4. It incorporates events such as a concours d’elegance and a classic and supercar show.
