Phantom II Continental by Rolls-Royce

Perhaps one of the most graceful and beautiful Rolls-Royce motorcars ever was the Phantom II Continental which is a closely-coupled Sport Saloon presented by coach builder Park Ward on its London show stand in the year 1933.

Even though this is not that car but still it almost a perfect replica. The show car’s elegantly falling belt-like is reliably procreated, emphasised by the same narrowing forming. The 12-inch dissimilarity is in the hood and the rear doors. Unofficial fable says it is one of three cars so manufactured prior to the management in Derby determined the abridged rear doors did not allow a well-dressed lady to get into or get out the back seat with self-respect.

The constrict back doors merged with fixed outboard motor rests makes climbing into the back seat uncomfortable. Once within, there’s enough room for a night on the town but is not fit for a lengthy drive.
