Rolls-Royce Spirit of Ecstasy
June 14, 2011
Price: Don’t ask
This car celebrates the world’s most famous hood ornament – the Spirit of Ecstasy – that adorns every Rolls-Royce built since 1911. The “flying lady” as she’s fondly known is said to depict Eleanor Thornton, secretary and secret lover of John Walter Montagu (the second Lord Montagu of Beaulieu after 1905). These special edition Phantoms are finished in a unique colour – called Wildflower – that is a blend of red and brown with a deep sparkle and the interior is simply oozing luxury and comfort. And, oh yes, the only sound you can hear is the clock ticking.
