Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() Recently i saw a 1923 Rolls Royce Silver Ghost Limousine being restored in hyderabad. I couldnt believe my eyes when i saw this marvel. Deccan Heritage Automobile Association will mostly have it in display for its Republic Day Rally in 2010. |

The Sanghi car was present at the recent Cartier show (http://www.team-bhp.com/forum/vintag...es-report.html) It appears to have been re-registered of late as the numbers don't match. I don't know much about the other car, perhaps others can help. Any more pictures from the event of other cars as well? | |

| ![]() I came across this Rolls Royce a few years ago while on business in India, and have used one of the images in several places. I keep getting asked for more information about it! From what I have been able to gather, it is a 1928 Phantom I, right hand drive, 6-cylinder straight line, 4 wheel mechanical braking system, 20 HP. Is that correct? Can anyone tell me anything more about this car? ![]() ![]() ![]() Last edited by aah78 : 24th July 2009 at 02:19. Reason: Pics re-uploaded to T-BHP server. |

Thats a nice car seemingly in good condition. Wherabouts in India is this? Please note that 'Phantom I' and '20hp' were two different models. This one seems to be a 20hp. Aditya | |

Where in India did you see the car? Did you get any more photos at other angles? Were there any other classics along with the Rolls? | |

![]() But seriously, these pictures again prove that India is so large that cars still crop up about which we have no clue. In short, a new pic. Where was this picture taken? Cheers harit | |

Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() A similar 20 hp is here in Hyderabad. Could be this car. It was in just this colour when I saw it last. Last edited by DKG : 24th July 2009 at 12:27. |

| ![]() Where is THIS now? A Rolls which participated in a rallt in Delhi more than 10 years ago. The owner at that time was probably Mr. Ranjit and he told me that this was once a Lady Muckerjee's car. Headlights appear to tilt forward. |

I'm sure Mr. RM (in Delhi) is just a phone call away for you and he can tell you where Lady RM's car (from Calcutta) went after his possession of it. Coincidence that the initials are both RM here - and nothing more than that, for the info of the casual, and inquisitive, reader! Am sure Mr. RM in Delhi would be reading/aware of this also, since he knows what goes on on t-bhp. Cheers, Prabal | |

| ![]() Very well said. Apparently the car has not been seen since long, perhaps some reader may throw some light. I agree that RM may be reading t-bhp, and there are many others who do too. Maybe they can be enticed to join and contribute. |

Karlos / Sabinesnubbing - any more views of this car ? The "Buick-ish" triple bumpers is interesting! Looks like a Phantom I going by the bent headlamp posts (I could be wrong). Cheers | |
