I challenge that statement with the Phantom I Jonckheere Aerodynamic Coupe

^It's even got a round door.

That is coachbuilt, correct? Im not sure it qualifies as a Roller.

About the 200ex, I like it, but if you owned one, you would have to avoid phantom owners wherever you went :)
 
I like it, I do.

But the centre console is too BMWey for me.

Probably not a coincidence as it shares 20% of its parts with the new 7 series.
 
I'd rather take a Bentley Flying Spur "Speed".
 
Something about the roofline reminds me of the 7 series.
 
So Royce is basically releasing a car 20cm shorter than the Phantom Coupe, but with twice as many doors? That's just weird.

It is. In the 1930s, the factory body was only for that poor wannabes who could not afford a real custom body... luxuary carmakers regularily sold "naked" chassis which would be fitted with custom-built bodys. Back in the day, that definitely qualified as "real", cause it was even more exclusive.
 
Rear end reminds me of a Rover 75, not that that's a bad thing.
 
I like it, even a 'discount' Rolls is far better than any car we'll drive.
