Rolls-Royce Phantom Drophead Coupe Waterspeed Collection







  • The Rolls-Royce Phantom Drophead Coupe Waterspeed Collection was previewed to selected UK press and customers at an exclusive event on the site of the original Bluebird Motor Company - now the Bluebird Restaurant - on the King's Road, London on May 13, 2014.


  • The car is finished in a specially developed รข€˜Maggiore Blue' exterior paint, inspired by Bluebird's famous colour scheme. Nine layers of paint are applied before an exhaustive process of hand-sanding and the application of a cutting-edge powdered lacquer is undertaken to ensure an impeccable finish.

  • The steering wheel is presented in two-tone for the very first time, with Maggiore Blue accents balancing perfectly with traditional black leather to complete a beautifully conceived interior design scheme.

  • The Rolls-Royce Phantom Drophead Coupe Waterspeed Collection features a number of exclusively created bespoke design and engineering features.

  • The car's Maggiore Blue exterior finish is subtly echoed on the interior via accents on the dashboard that perfectly complement the Windchill Grey interior leather scheme.

  • For the first time in Rolls-Royce history the exterior finish extends to the engine, creating a visually striking homage to the power behind Campbell's records.
