| Senior - BHPian | Man, those R129s are a real thing of beauty. Definitely not an SL60 (god, those things are mysteriously rare!), probably an SL600 at best, but wouldn't be surprised if it's just an SL320/500 under it all. Certainly not an E220 - import duty craftily discounted Nevertheless, timeless design and the Lorinser (or Lorinser-like) turbines look fantastic.

![]() BTW Shayan, I have seen one beautifully maintained AP16 Registered White E34 5Series with serious mods on it and when I looked up the Reg.no. on the AP Transport site, I was shocked to see it was registered as a White Ambassador Petrol ! ![]() Last edited by ShortShifter : 19th May 2011 at 20:24. | |

| Here is a R170 SLK with AMG Wheels ! Had a great exhaust note as well. Clicked these snaps some 3-4 years back on my Phone when I had been to the Navy Blue XJL/Maroon EWB Phantom owners home in Banjara Hills. They still have it in their garage along with various other exotics. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Last edited by ShortShifter : 19th May 2011 at 20:56. |

Its a general misconception by most of the people that his garage is solely meant for use by only person as an Individual. Nope the garage is widespread and belongs and is meant for him/his family/partners and others who are closely related to him. He seemed to be quite happy with the RR Dealership/Service here hence the sheer no. of Phantoms. He doesn't go for vehicles which don't have proper service in our country. Well atleast this is what I have heard. Hyderabadi's are quite fond of the Brits and this is quite evident in most of the High Profile Garage's in town. Not Sure about the count of RR's in Mumbai or Delhi but Whatever we have we sure are proud to be driving amidst such Beautiful Crafted, Elegant and Luxurious rides. ![]() Last edited by ShortShifter : 20th May 2011 at 01:34. | |

| Good analyses Kailash! It's odd nobody went for the Chrome rims though. |

| Nice compilation Kailash, now for the Flying Bs ![]() Btw, I think the Blue SWB Phantoms above and below Lanco's pic are the same? Why would someone buy two identical cars? |

| An Unofficial count of a staggering 17 Modern Phantoms in One City, not sure if other cities match up but I am simply awestruck ! And Deepak, maybe this could clear things for you ![]() ![]() Nope Vishnu, I think the one above is an old one and the one below is a new purchase. And Flying B's ? No ways ! There are loads of them in Hyderabad. Around 50-60 or more maybe more. And almost 50% of them belong to the W16 People. BTW, I think this is the one I Saw, the AP10APXXX7 one ! ![]() Last edited by GTO : 21st May 2011 at 18:34. Reason: Editing as requested by ShortShifter |

I am not sure if all this is accurate. "Mr W16" and his partner's put together do not own 8 Rolls - he and his partner's garage in fact has 5 Rolls in all - 2 EWB, 1 SWB, 1 Coupe and 1 DHC. In all there are 11 Phantoms in Hyd AFAIK and that includes the Coupe and the DHC. And Ghosts - I have seen 3 of them till now. | |

And Is the Black SWB in the 4th picture D.C's are someone else's ? Talking about the EWB's , They might been pictures of the same car, but not too sure cause I didn't click those pictures ! So it should be 1 to the Industrialist, Two with D.C and one Diamond black which belongs to a construction company with the Reg. no. AP28CDXXXX, it was registered in July 2010. You could check it out on the AP Transport site if you want. ![]() And finally about the Ghosts yeah, I'v seen 3 of them but I read somewhere that D.C's have got one ? And Sir, what about this ? http://www.team-bhp.com/forum/super-...ml#post2020574 BTW One of my friend spotted the same Cayenne with the word Porsche written on a tacky red number plate at a Pre-Owned Car Dealership on Ministers Road, Secunderabad. ![]() ![]() Last edited by ShortShifter : 20th May 2011 at 17:13. | ||
