I saw that Ghost at the workshop. Didn't like the blue interiors at all. But externally, the Ghost looks great in white. And any day better than the Phantom, I hate the looks of the Phantom.

But... Flying Spur for me

The car is spidermans. I see a cop car in the background. If the picture was taken in the last two weeks then it cannot be the company car as it was in Hyd for the auto show. I just noticed on the Rear view mirror the red cloth is tied, the kind that is tied after offering prayers. Si i can safely say its spidermans car.

I hope the guy in the passenger seat is not smoking. If it were my Ghost, I wouldn't even have a sip of water in it!

I saw the owner of the first DHC Phantom smoking in the car and driving right after delivery ! He had the windows open and i could almost see the ash blow with the wind all over the interiors while i was driving beside him on he sea link.

Last night I happened to spot a Silver Ghost taking the turn at CCD on Carter's. It had a police escort following it along with a white E Class and another white car.

The car was heavily tinted and it had a single digit no.

It is wicked in a weird way, but imho, any car doesnt deserve to be smoked in.

Next time his person comes to the Service center ask him to take you to see the cars. Your Jaws would drop .

Wow the Ghost looks really awesome. Looks brilliant in white.
The Silver paint finish goes so well with the white base color.

21 in six months, wow, it took probably 2 years to sell 21 Phantoms

I thought he had cancelled the second one's order, but i guess he just delayed it. I know both car orders were given at the same time and only one came in, so believed the guy who told me that the second car was cancelled. I believe this takes the count to 6.

That is just too sweet..21 Ghosts in such a short time. Awsome work guys and i guess S.K. has been pushing the sales guys hard especially K.M. .
