Rolls-Royce Sweptail is revealed and it is priced at QR 48 million

By, 2017-05-28

A Rolls-Royce customer did not find the list of customisation options not as appealing, so he asked the British car marque to build a one-off bespoke motor car with his own idea. The result is the Rolls-Royce Sweptail that was unveiled at the Concorso d'Eleganza at Villa d'Este on 27th May 2017.

The Sweptail Description

The front remains distinctly like a Rolls and the Sweptail gets the Pantheon inspired grille is milled from solid aluminium, the largest on any era Rolls-Royce and gets a hand to a mirror finish. The coupe even gets its a unique registration number - 08 - that has been milled from ingots of aluminium and hand polished.

Inside, the bespoke one-off motor car features generous quantities of polished Macassar Ebony and open-pore Paldao, keeping things classical and contemporary. Bringing in contrast is the light Moccasin and Dark Spice leathers on the seats, armrests and dashboard. Replacing the rear seats on the Rolls-Royce Sweptail Coupe is a vast expanse of wood creating a mid-shelf with an illuminated glass lip. In a world first, the car's Rolls-Royce clock is also handmade of the thinnest Macassar veneer and titanium hands. There are also handmade panniers that match the car, while Rolls-Royce has also developed a full set of bespoke luggage for the Sweptail.

Rolls Royce Motor Cars CEO Torsten Muller-Otvos said, "Sweptail is a truly magnificent car. It exudes the romance of travel for its own sake, and immediately places 'Sweptail' in the pantheon of the world's great intercontinental tourers."
