## What makes the Phantom different from a Ghost?

Size, and intent. The Phantom is longer, heavier and built on its own aluminium architecture, and it is rear-wheel drive where the Ghost drives all four. The Ghost is a car you drive; the Phantom is a car you are driven in, and its rear compartment is specified accordingly. Both use the same 6.75-litre twin-turbo V12.

## Is a Phantom a good wedding car?

It is the default choice, and the reasons are practical rather than romantic. The rear doors are rear-hinged, so a passenger steps out forwards instead of reversing onto a wet pavement. The roofline is high enough for a hat or a headdress. And it photographs well from every angle, which matters more on the day than any figure on the specification sheet.

## Can I be driven rather than drive it myself?

Our hires are self-drive, so the person named on the agreement does the driving. If you want a chauffeur for a wedding or a corporate event, raise it at the enquiry stage and we will tell you plainly whether the supplying partner can arrange one and what it changes about the terms. That is a conversation worth having early rather than late.

## What does a Phantom cost to hire?

A refundable £30,000 deposit and a £20,000 insurance excess apply, with 12,000 miles a year included and £4.50 a mile after that. Driver criteria are 30 or over with eight years on a full licence.

## Frequently asked questions

### Can I hire a Rolls-Royce Phantom for a wedding?

We can source one, subject to confirmation. It is a self-drive hire unless a chauffeur is arranged separately, and we confirm the specific car and its colour with the supplying partner before the date.

### Is the Phantom rear-wheel drive?

Yes. Unlike the Ghost and the Cullinan, which drive all four wheels, the Phantom is rear-wheel drive with four-wheel steering to help it turn in tight spaces.

### How many people does a Phantom carry?

Five with the standard rear bench. Cars specified with individual rear seats carry four. We tell you which configuration the available car has before you book.

*Performance & Prestige hires vehicles from its own fleet and, where a vehicle is not one of ours, arranges it through a vetted partner. Cars marked "we can source" are subject to confirmation before anything is agreed. Rates include VAT. Nothing is booked or paid for through this website: a person confirms the car, the full cost and the delivery slot with you first.*

*Pre-launch note: the rates, driver criteria, deposits, excesses and mileage allowances quoted here are read from Performance & Prestige's own catalogue data, which is still being confirmed with the owner and the insurer. Read them as the shape of the figures rather than as a quotation. What binds is your written quote and your hire agreement.*
