ROLLS-ROYCE PATRON THANKS THE CRAFTSPEOPLE THAT BUILT HIS CAR WITH A UNIQUE GESTURE

Goodwood.- In an extraordinary gesture of gratitude, a patron of Rolls-Royce Motor Cars presented an exceptionally grand cake in the shape of a new Rolls-Royce Phantom to the artisans who had crafted his commission.

In the spirit of the marque’s dedication to bespoke craftsmanship, the cake was colour-matched to his motor car. Following his presentation of this remarkable token, the gentleman personally handed out slices of the cake to the artisans who had realised his vision of Phantom.

He commented, “I would like to express my sincere gratitude to all the hard working people; the unsung heroes who are responsible for these mobile works of art.”

Torsten Müller-Ötvös, Chief Executive Officer, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars, said, “We thank our patron for this extraordinary gesture, which was warmly welcomed by everyone at the Home of Rolls-Royce. It is not unusual for our patrons to thank the men and women in the Rolls-Royce family who are responsible for building their motor cars, but this is the first time that one has asked to express their thanks in this way.”

First customer deliveries of the flagship Phantom were made in January and the pinnacle model has a strong order book throughout the year.
