Buying or Selling a 1936 Rolls Royce Phantom III

The Phantom III was the final model of Rolls-Royce Phantom to be developed before the outbreak of World War II. The 1936 Rolls-Royce Phantom III was the first Rolls-Royce car to be fitted with a V12 engine, and the Phantom III would be the only Rolls-Royce to have this large of an engine for 62 years later, when the company released the Silver Seraph. The Phantom III was one of the last large-sized cars produced by Rolls-Royce, so when Rolls-Royce shut down because of the war, it signified the end of an iconic era in British luxury.
