The Rolls-Royce Sweptail is modern day coachbuilding at its finest, and it's also the most expensive new car ever with an estimated price tag of £10 million. There will only be one Sweptail built and here it is to take a look around.
The lucky owner of the car has spent 4-5 years working closely with Rolls-Royce to create the Sweptail, a totally bespoke commission and a one-off product. Based upon the Rolls-Royce Phantom VII Coupe with a 6.75l V12 it features numerous special touches along with the styling of traditional 1930s Rolls-Royces.
The Sweptail includes a champagne bottle ready in the central armrest, a hat shelf behind the front occupants, umbrella and laptop bag stowed in the door arches, a crystal Spirit of Ecstasy and the largest panoramic glass roof used on a road car. Those are just some of the special features on the Sweptail, but when you look up more closely you can see the simplicity of the interior dashboard, the curvaceous nature of the panels wrapping the edges of the exterior and the fastback style rear hatch.
On the Rolls-Royce stand behind we can take a look at the new Dawn Black Badge, a car that raises the stakes for the ultimate convertible cruiser. With more power, visually aggressive highlights and oozing style, it's quite something!
Thanks for watching, Tim
