Rolls-royce Phantom FAQs

• Is the Rolls-Royce Phantom discontinued?

  No, at the time of writing in early 2022, the Rolls-Royce Phantom is still being sold in Australia, although of course it is a very low-volume shifter thanks to the brand's elite status and lofty price-tag. It is a slightly different story in the US, where production has changed over recent years to tweak the company's line-up, but even there, the Phantom is one of the models that Rolls-Royce has opted to focus on given the architecture of the platform shared with the Cullinan and Ghost.

• Which is the cheapest Rolls Royce Phantom?

  You might want to brace yourself for this, but in terms of the Phantom range, the most-affordable variant is priced from $915,400 before all sorts of on-road costs like stamp duty, dealer delivery fee, registration, government taxes and charges, not to mention, other optional extras associated with the endless customisation on offer. Across the broader Rolls-Royce range, the Wraith is slightly more accessible at a starting price of $635,000 plus on-road costs, but by no means are they 'cheap'.

• Can a normal person buy a Rolls Royce?

  Although over the years many stories have been told about how Rolls-Royce vehicles are reserved for celebrities, or that you might need to pass all sorts of background checks, the reality is that anyone who can afford to buy a Rolls-Royce may do so. That in itself rules out the overwhelming majority of people. After all, this is a car that costs as much as a house. But as long as you can stump up the finances to attain a Rolls-Royce, there is nothing stopping you, even though there may be a wait time for customisations.
