The standard price includes shipping costs so most exotic vehicles are brought it through the shipping route only.

However in some cases, owners have paid additional amount and got their cars airlifted.

For someone who is shelling out so much money on a car can easily pay a nominal air-cargo fare and get the vehicle delivered at the earliest, but then it all boils down to personal preferences probably.

Re: Rolls-Royce Phantom VIII launched in India

India's richest man gets a Phantom VIII EWB! The Jio garage is getting some really interesting rides nowadays. Wonder if this one is for himself or his children.

The number plates hint at it being Anant Ambani's car as 1 is his preferred choice of plates. Their Phantom Series II DropHead Coupe and Cullinan too sport MH xx xx 1 plates. That said, the cars are usually used by everyone in the family.
Also, aren't the plates supposed to be blurred out as a part of forum rules?

Plates were already visible to the public from the source itself so it shouldn't be a problem I guess

Anyone can have a flag on their dash! Those flags are probably the most common dashboard accessories in the country after religious idols offcourse...

Although this thread is more about cars and not about owners, may I ask whether this particular company is from the Deutsche Motoren / Ring Road Honda group?
