Rolls-Royce unveil two new Special Edition models in Dubai
The Middle East, and, specially, the UAE, is one of the most lucrative markets for luxury brands, fuelled as it is by the oil boom and its position as one of the biggest shopping destinations on the planet. Recognising this, manufacturers routinely introduce special and limited edition models of their choicest products, and that is precisely what Rolls-Royce has done at the 2015 Dubai International Motor Show.
Along with the Middle East unveil of the new Dawn and the Wraith “Inspired by Music,” the BMW-owned British marquee introduced the Phantom Coupe Tiger and Ghost Golf Edition, two special editions that will appeal to those who desire to make their already-stunning bespoke machines stand out even more.
First up is the Rolls-Royce Ghost Golf. Built at the behest of AGMC, Rolls’ local importer in the UAE, the Golf edition "takes its inspiration from the fairways to appeal to discerning sportsmen, incorporating design cues and materials that evoke the history of this gentleman's sport.” It took more than two years to be realised by a team craftspeople at the Home of Rolls-Royce in Goodwood, England, and features a paint combination of Brooklands Green and Desert Dune that is designed to resonate with Dubai’s green golf courses set against the majestic background of the surrounding Arabian sands.
Inside, the Golf Edition features tri-colour leather in Crème Light, Pine Green and Hotspur Red accented by contrast stitching and seat piping, in addition to Lambswool floor mats, a starlight headliner and bespoke picnic tables. Tartan-lined door pockets, mahogany and persimmon wood veneers, and other special touches round out the unique treatment aimed at golf enthusiasts.
Then there’s the Rolls-Royce Phantom Coupe Tiger, a visually louder edition of the Phantom, with a Burnt Orange and Arizona Sun two-tone paint job highlighted by the Tiger motif twin coachline. Inside, things are a bit toned down - the cabin is covered in tan and seashell leather with Tiger motif headrests and Moccasser ebony veneers, moccasin lambswool floor mats and bespoke Tiger Phantom Coupe treadplates.
Both the Rolls-Royce Phantom Coupe Tiger and Ghost Golf Edition follow hot on the heels of the 1001 Nights edition of the Ghost that was introduced in the UAE just weeks ago.
