Embarrassing Replica of Rolls Royce Phantom Built on BMW 750i V12 E32


This custom monstrosity of a Rolls Royce Phantom replica is based on one of the last elegant BMW 7-Series models, the late 1980s-early 1990s E32, and was found for sale on a Polish used car website. There are so many things wrong with the build that we don't know where to start, but the flashy Rolls Royce sticker on the steering wheel could take the prize for being the worst item on the car...

The Phantom clown clone is built on a V12-powered 750i with the seller asking a laughable €56,653 (around US$75,500 at today's exchange rates) for the car. More photos after the break.

Rolls Royce Phantom Style Sofa for Two


If you have a knack for everything automotive and a few thousand dollars to spare (and no wife to complain..), then you ought to take a look at this 'royal' couch inspired from the Rolls Royce Phantom. The two seater sofa comes complete with a set of wheels and a normal trunk, although we would advise you to avoid using it as a... baby cradle as suggested by the photos. The 'Divani Rolls' is said to be priced from $5,500.

Borat's Ride: Kazakhstani Transforms Mercedes E-Class W124 into Rolls Royce Phantom

Adding to our long list of Rolls Royce Phantom wannabes from all over the world (bad taste has no ethnic boundaries...) is this creation that's said to come from Kazakhstan. A fitting (luxury) proposal for Sacha Baron Cohen's fictional character Borat, the Phantom appears to be based on the late 1980s - early 1990s, W124 Mercedes-Benz E-Class. Watch the video after the break.

VIDEO: Rolls Royce Phantom gets Shot and Blown Up During Ballistic Test

Just like any other product, armored cars have to pass rigorous tests to make sure they deliver what they promise - even if that means destroying a six-figure vehicle like the Rolls Royce Phantom during the process. In what looks like a real life 'shootem up' video is in fact a ballistic test performed by Mutec which is a German coach builder that specializes on armored vehicles. Watch the armored Phantom being shot at with several types of guns as well as being blown up in the video after the break.

'Aristocratic' Tuning: Hamann Rolls Royce Phantom and Drophead Coupe

Tuners are leaving no stone unturned these harsh economic times in their pursuit to make a buck or two. And what better candidates for some extra cash than the Rolls Royce Phantom limo and its convertible offspring, the Phantom Drophead Coupe. Though Hamann Motorsports has yet to disclose something official, these photos made their way into the net revealing the two cars. Aside from the massive 23-inch alloy wheels that are available in various designs, we didn't any other exterior changes on the Phantoms. A photograph of the interior though reveals that the German tuner has developed a new three spoke sport steering wheel for both models.

It is also said, but not verified, that Hamann Motorsport's Phantom package also includes an engine kit that boosts the 6.75-liter V12's output from 460HP to 535HP and maximum torque from 720Nm to 835Nm (615-lbs/ft). Along with the removal of the speed limiter, it is claimed that both Phantoms reach a top speed of 300km/h or 187 mph.

The (Rolls Royce) Phantom of the Hummer

This is so wrong, in so many ways that we've lost count. But admittedly it is comically hilarious. Actually it's probably the most ridiculous transformation of a Hummer we've seen to date. Now, why on earth would someone perform a Rolls Royce Phantom-like face transplant on an Hummer H2 is beyond logical comprehension. We'll just leave it at that...

Geely GE Limo: Rolls-Royce Phantom Clone to be Revealed at Shanghai Show

If by any chance you were wondering whether or not this year's Shanghai Auto Show that runs from April 20 to 28 will host any new Chinese clones, BYD Auto with its Lexus RX doppelganger and now Geely with its new "Phantomized" GE limo, leave few doubts to as what we should be expecting to see at the motorshow.

Among the army of new cars and concept studies that Geely is preparing to bring to Shanghai is the GE, a proposal for a high-end limousine that looks like the outcome of a 10-year-old designing a Rolls-Royce Phantom. However, unlike the British luxury sedan, the 5.3-meter long GE does not get suicide rear doors while weirdly enough, the car's interior has a 2+1 seating arrangement, with the rear passenger getting the royal treatment.
