On my last visit to Mumbai I visited the new Rolls Royce showroom at Worli, unfortunetly I couldn't enter. The security told me that I should have taken prior appointment. A black Phantom was there inside, anyway I took a snap from out. CNBC Auto show team were there inside shooting the car. Its second time I'm seeing Phantom, 1st time from Dubai. Both time I couldn't enter.

Test drive: S500 & Actros :-

i diasagree with you there....while i dont care for this colour combo too much, the phantom in black and silver is quite a stunner, and that too being rather stately, not loud...

Mav, this doesnt seem like the LWB version, there is hardly much of a diff, this one is a custom limo as much as i can tell..

the LWB doesnt have a limo type center attached...

I could be wrong, but i think this is a custom job..

Edit: this is the LWB and not the pics from Oman..
