The only Rolls-Royce that brings the racing sailboats to the roads

Qyou can see a Rolls-Royce the only one who brings the world from the raceboats to the roads. It's the Phantom Regatta, which is based on Phantom Extended.

Made to size following an order, this luxury car “pays tribute to racing sailboats of the South Coast of England and the races that compete every summer in Solent”.

The painting in a shade of marine blue Regatta Blue rests on a lower layer in white English White, a bicolor hand-made treatment that recreates the line in which the hull of a sailboat meets the water. The polished rims are 22 inches with mirrored surfaces that are an indication of the polished steel winches of a raceboat.

The reference to these vessels remains on the inside, with deep blue water below and white on the top. At the front, there is leather in Navy Blue blue and behind there is white Grace White in an attempt to recreate the candle texture and the boat's trail.

The central piece of the interior is a hand painted work of art the entire width of the car – Watercolour. According to a statement, “it was created by the artist of the house using paintings specially developed on wood substrate of open pores”. It created a new mixing technique to capture wave movement and open water.

The seats and doors have embroidery, contrasting seams and steering wheel in both shades and monograms RR (Rolls-Royce) embroidered in turquoise blue as well as the waters of the coast. It is found a leafy Piano Milori combined with royal walnut tree of open pores. The panel has a hand-made satin finish, as well as the rear doors and the tops of the picnic tables.

These required 120 hours of manual work, having the finish as if it were a deck of a real walnut yacht. Among the “tables”, there is a thin strip of black wood Black Bolivar. The geographical coordinates discreetly recorded on each air exit are those of Rolls-Royce headquarters (driver side) and Goodwood House.

The ceiling incorporates a custom-made lining, Starlight Headliner. The pattern consists of 1,307 fiber optic stars placed by hand, with tidal currents on Wight Island as inspiration.
