Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1927 Rolls-Royce Phantom I Dover Special Limousine, with coachwork by Brewster, boasts a rich history and unique features. Having undergone cosmetic restoration and benefiting from a division separating the ox blood leather front seats from the well-preserved beige broadcloth rear compartment, it presents elegantly, though it requires mechanical recommissioning due to long-term static display.
With a well-documented ownership history, including time in Sweden and Switzerland, this left-hand drive Phantom I offers a blend of classic charm and potential for tours or local drives. Its period-updated Brewster coachwork and well-maintained interior make it a compelling classic, but prospective buyers should account for the recommended mechanical work.

Nonetheless, given its long-term limited use, more thorough mechanical recommissioning is recommended prior to active use.
