The Phantom II was one of the last cars that was completely designed and built under Henry Royce's Supervision. As with all Rolls-Royce automobiles, The Phantom II was made with the very best materials at the highest level of craftmanship.

The Phantom II had many refinements over the Phantom I which was itself a refined Silver Ghost. In 1929, the new Phantom II had a new suspension with semi-elliptic springs offering a low ride height. The engine was also given more power by means of a larger displacement and re-worked aluminum heads. Phantom II's were built up to 1935 until the more advanced Phantom III rolled out of the factory. 1680 Phantom II's were produced.

Of the 1680 Phantom IIs, this is the only example that recieved coachwork from Figoni et Falaschi, one of the most sought after design houses for the period. Known for thier smooth, flowing designs, Figoni et Falaschi made this Rolls untypical of coachhwork found on other Phantoms. The lines of the car, especially at the rear distinguish it from any other Rolls-Royce.

The Prince of Nepal commisioned Figoni et Falaschi to create this unique example. The result was and still is a very elegant car that hides it enourmous size. The Phantom II was the largest chassis these coachbuilders had ever worked on!

To give you an idea of value, this car was once traded to Captain Frederick Henry for his Bugatti Royale! This car was recently offered from the Blackhawk collection at $950 000 USD.
