The ROLLS-ROYCE PHANTOM (2003-10) is a full-size, ultra-luxury saloon, built to deliver comfort, presence and a chauffeur-worthy ride. In the UK it occupies the very top of the market, facing prestigious rivals such as the Bentley Arnage. Mycarcheck.com has logged 2,719 checks covering 310 distinct VINs, a substantial sample for such a rare car. Typically used for executive journeys, special occasions and chauffeured travel, the Phantom can also suit an owner-driver who wants a distinctive luxury car. It prioritises serene comfort and a commanding presence over economy or city-friendly size, so it is best suited to buyers comfortable with its substantial running costs and footprint. Imposing design, a beautifully finished cabin and exceptionally smooth progress give the Phantom a grander, more formal character than many rivals. Checks show average annual use of 3,000 miles, 74,000 recorded miles and around three previous keepers; average private-sale valuation in these checks is £63,700.
