Part 2: Phantom Hire’s Rolls Royce Hire Options

As the leading provider of Rolls Royce hire throughout the entire UK, Phantom Hire’s luxury fleet contain a varied array of different Rolls Royce options for clients to choose from. Each of these vehicles offers a wholly unique but equally luxurious passenger experience, transforming your journey to and from your destination into a pampered, sumptuous adventure. Whether you require the robust, all-terrain capabilities of the Rolls Royce Cullinan or the sleek electric glide of the Rolls Royce Spectre, Phantom Hire’s Rolls Royce fleet will have something that will perfectly suit your tastes and requirements. 

Rolls Royce Phantom 8

Widely viewed as Rolls-Royce’s signature vehicle, the Phantom is a car that simply screams luxury from every corner of its impressive body. The Phantom 8 is the most recent edition of this classic vehicle, and as such, it contains all the most recent amenities that will make every luxury journey one to remember. This includes a bespoke 15-speaker sound system that provides crisp sound quality for our favourite tunes, and a drinks fridge tucked away between the seats that contains all your favourite chilled beverages. The car’s interior also includes gorgeously crafted leather seating, which provide a comfortable cushioned feel for passengers, ensuring their journey to their destination is one of uncompromised comfort. 

Additionally, thanks to its arctic white paint job and sublimely sculpted exterior, this is a luxury car that lends itself very well to photography. This makes it excellently suited to important occasions like weddings and proms, as passengers can pose outside the event venue or stop at a nearby landmark for a breathtaking photoshoot. When you book the Rolls-Royce Phantom 8, you’ll be able to create brilliant memories that you’ll cherish forever. 

Rolls Royce Dawn

Convertible vehicles have become an increasingly popular choice for event hire, particulalrly during the summer. There truly is nothing better than feeling the summer sun on your face and the breeze in your hair as you make your way along a seaside route or a winding country road. Thankfully for you, Rolls Royce has developed what might be the greatest convertible vehicle of them all, the Rolls-Royce Dawn. 

This incredible 5-seater sedan is the only convertible vehicle available from Phantom Hire’s Rolls Royce hire service and it provides an experience unlike any other model in the fleet. The car’s soft-top roof can slide away at the mere touch of a button, allowing passengers to experience an open-top journey that they wouldn’t be able to find in any other Rolls-Royce vehicle.

On top of that, the Dawn has the most colour options out any car in Phantom Hire’s fleet, featuring models in Ensign Red, Arctic White, Tuscan Sun and Miami & Turchese Blue. If you were thinking of hiring a car that matches the colour of your prom dress of the theme of your birthday party, then the Dawn is your best choice for Rolls Royce hire. 

Rolls Royce Ghost

Different Rolls Royce vehicles prioritise various aspects of the hire experience; the Phantom emphasises luxury, the Cullinan focuses on traverseability, while the Ghost is designed for maximum comfort. Its ‘Rear Serenity Suite’ offers extended legroom for relaxation, and the Illuminated Fascia feature bathes the dashboard in a starlight glow, creating an intimate atmosphere. For a return journey after a long event, the Ghost is an excellent choice.

The Ghost’s focus on comfort is not solely fixated on relaxation: it also increases the seamlessness of your journey. Rather than opening and closing with manual door handles, the car’s doors are opened using the Comfort Entry System, which enables the doors to be opened and closed at the mere touch of a button. This makes getting in and out of the car as seamless as possible, which is particularly handy if you are a bride and want to be able to get in and out of the car without crumpling your expensive wedding dress. For those wanting utterly seamless transportation, the Ghost should be your go-to choice of Rolls Royce hire. 

Rolls Royce Spectre

The Spectre is the most recent addition to Rolls Royce’s collection of vehicles and contains a unique feature that sets it apart from its previous models. Unlike its petrol-powered cousins, the Spectre runs entirely on electricity, powered by an all-electric powertrain. This makes it not only the most technologically advanced Rolls Royce model, but also the most sustainable, as its electric capabilities eliminate the long-debated issue of carbon emissions. If you want to experience the luxury of a Rolls-Royce whilst still doing your bit for the environment, then the Spectre is an excellent choice.  

Rolls Royce Cullinan

SUVs are among the most popular luxury cars on the market, and SUV cars don’t get much better than the Rolls-Royce Cullinan. This car’s sleek, black exterior radiates an aura that is perfect for VIP travel, which is one of the reasons why the Cullinan has become so popular for executive car hire. If you want to pull up to your next business meeting or press conference in a car that immediately signals your importance, you won’t find a car better suited to the job.

On top of that, the car’s imposing, robust frame, combined with 4×4 driving capabilities make it an excellent choice for travelling over rough terrain or stormy weather. Weather is rarely on our side, so choosing a car that can reliably travel through rain, sleet, hail or snow alike is exceptionally helpful, especially if your are travelling a long way to your destination. For seamless travel no matter the weather conditions, the Cullinan is the optimal Rolls Royce hire choice. 

Rolls Royce Phantom Limo

The Phantom is already widely considered a classic, but what if you could experience the high-end affluence of Rolls Royce’s signature car combined with the spacious comfort of a traditional limousine. Enter the Rolls Royce Phantom Limousine, a stunning new vehicle that combines the best of both cars to create an all-encompassing luxury experience.

The Phantom Limo contains all the same amenities as the Phantom 8 – the cushioned seating, the high-quality sound system, the built-in drinks fridge – but unlike the Phantom 8, it contains a much more spacious cabin with enough room for 6 people. This makes it the perfect for small groups travelling to a luxury occasion, whether you’re a group of bridesmaids heading to your best friend’s wedding reception or high profile executives wanting to make a big entrance at an important conference.
