Rolls-Royce Phantom–Video Test Drive with Chris Moran

January 7th, 2012

My favorite video so far…a stunning 2009 Rolls-Royce Phantom. Enjoy. For decades prior to the current-generation Phantom, Rolls-Royces were often perceived as being nothing more than beautiful old-school luxury barges with all the technological innovation and dynamic excitement of the Queen Mary. So to say there was some skepticism surrounding the introduction of the Rolls-Royce Phantom would be like saying reality TV occasionally resorts to fabrication when ratings are at stake. When parent company BMW first announced in the late 1990s that it would be delivering a completely new Rolls-Royce to paying customers on January 1, 2003, most analysts wrote it off as the kind of posturing that typically accompanies a corporate takeover. After all, BMW didn’t even own the Rolls-Royce brand yet. It would be four-and-a-half years before the German automaker acquired the rights to sell the storied brand, but the target was indeed met, and the first all-new Rolls-Royce in nearly 40 years left the all-new Rolls-Royce plant at Goodwood in West Sussex, England. Unlike so many of its predecessors, this beautifully crafted and elegant ultraluxury sedan lives up to the lofty expectations of a vehicle adorned with the hood-mounted Spirit of Ecstasy. While a case could be made for one of its few rivals, no other automobile boasts the unique style, grandiose dimensions and sterling reputation of the Rolls-Royce Phantom. Current Rolls-Royce Phantom Despite the ties to BMW, the Phantom is

Maserati MC12 + Aston Martin V8 V600 LM + Carrera GT seized by the police !!!

November 6th, 2011

?????? All the info on this video can be found here ?????? PLEASE READ = AVOID QUESTIONS ;) I stumbled upon a very very odd scene today. Some supercars were being seized by the police in Avenue Foch, Paris. Among them there was a very rare Maserati MC12 (only 50 in the world) and a red Aston Martin V8 V600 Le Mans (only 40 in the world) as well as a white Rolls Royce Phantom coupĂ©. A yellow Porsche Carrera GT was also waiting to be towed by truck. Pretty insane sight, don’t you think? Now thing is I missed most of the party: they had already seized a red Ferrari Enzo, 599 GTO, full blue Bugatti Veyron, chrome Veyron GrandSport, and possibly the red Aston Martin One-77…. Now what you’ve all been waiting for = why are they seizing the cars?? These cars are said to belong to the son of the african president of Equatorial Guinea (some might say a dictator), who is really fond of cars. But I don’t know why the french police was seizing the supercars, and it’s not of my concern! Let justice do the work, and let’s simply admire the cars :) Filmed with a Sony HDR CX700 Enjoy! EDIT: thanks for watching guys! This video has become quite a success already! Been featured on The Daily Mail, Yahoo.fr, Yahoo.com, Jalopnik, TeamSpeed, GTSpirit, SportAuto, and even french TV (BFMTV)… and many more I guess :) ***************************************************************************************** [?] Facebook: www.facebook.com [?] Visit my website: alexsmolik.com
