|
Bahrain: The latest addition to the Phantom family, the new Phantom Coupé, has been exhibited at Jewellery Arabia from 25 to 29 of November.
"Jewellery Arabia was a stunning setting in which to show the new Phantom Coupé. The attention to detail of Rolls-RoyceRolls-Royce
is legendary and luxury is absolutely synonymous with the brand," said Peter Schoppmann, Regional Director for the Middle East.
Marrying cutting-edge technology with a beautifully proportioned, muscular body that exudes power and style, the Coupé incorporates timeless Rolls-RoyceRolls-Royce design cues in an utterly contemporary manner. The interior can be illuminated by an optional Starlight Headliner, more than 1,600 fibre-optics give the impression of a star-filled night sky.
Each car is individually hand built by highly skilled craftsmen and women at the company's world headquarters in Goodwood, on the south coast of England.
The appeal of the Phantom family in the Middle East region remains strong, Rolls-RoyceRolls-Royce expects a significant growth in 2008 over 2007.

The core of the Phantom Coupé is an advanced aluminium chassis, perhaps the single most significant component in delivering the marque's legendary refinement. Lightweight and exceptionally strong, it impacts positively on ride comfort, handling and safety. Handmade, it requires over 130 meters of welding to create each body.
Power is provided by the Phantom's 6.75-litre V12 that produces 453 bhp, 720 Nm of torque and has segment-leading fuel economy. A 25 per cent increase in fuel capacity, compared to the Drophead Coupé, adds significant driving range. Agile, fast, long-legged and virtually silent, the Phantom Coupé allows both driver and passengers to emerge unruffled, even after an all-day run.
Rolls-RoyceRolls-Royce has 82 dealers around the world and currently nine showrooms in the Middle East region: in
Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Doha, Jeddah, Kuwait City, Lahore, Manama, Muscat and Riyadh.
