Rolls Royce roll out Coupé

INSPIRED by the world water-speed record-breaking exploits of Malcolm Campbell, the new collection of Rolls Royce convertibles showcase the craftsmanship and attention to detail that sets the company apart from all other companies in the luxury car market.

The Rolls Royce Phantom Drophead Coupé Waterspeed Collection is a special bespoke series that will only ever run to 35 models, each of which will be finished in a special ‘Maggiore Blue’.

It’s a colour developed to pay homage to the Bluebird K3, Campbell’s famous Rolls-Royce powered watercraft that on September 2, 1937 hit a top speed of 129.5mph (208.41km) across Lake Maggiore on the Italian-Swiss border. The run set a new world waterspeed record.
