British luxury marque says it takes more than 600 hours to build a Rolls-Royce car to the client’s individual taste.
Complex commissions such as the Boat Tail and Droptail can take up to four years to develop and construct.
According to the British luxury marque, no two Rolls-Royce motor cars are entirely alike.
The “Home of Rolls-Royce” at Goodwood in West Sussex in the United Kingdom is the only place in the world where the British luxury marque’s current lineup as well as Coachbuild masterpieces are designed and built by hand.
Since its inception over 20 years ago, the Goodwood plant in UK has grown from producing one car per day with 300 employees to manufacturing 28 cars per day with over 2,500 employees.
According to the British luxury marque, no two Rolls-Royce cars are entirely alike as every Rolls-Royce and Coachbuild masterpiece is hand-crafted to the client’s individual taste by world-class craftspeople.
Rolls-Royce says it takes artisan at the “Home of Rolls-Royce” more than 600 hours to build a single car while complex commissions such as the Boat Tail and Droptail can take up to four years to develop and construct.
The Making of a Rolls-Royce
The current Rolls-Royce lineups includes the Spectre, Cullinan, Ghost (and their Black Badge variants) and the the flagship Phantom. Every car begins its journey in the “Exterior Surface Centre”, where clients can choose from a palette of 44,000 exterior colours or even sort the services of Rolls-Royce Bespoke Collective to develop a new Bespoke exclusive colour.
The next phase is the “Interior Trim Centre”, where clients are able to commission not only leather, but fabric interiors as well. From there is the “Interior Surface Centre”, where clients can select from around 30 different wood types, with different stains and treatments.
Clients can also opt for the Starlight Headliner, a spellbinding Bespoke feature that contains between 800 and 1,600 ‘stars’ (optical fibres) and which typically takes nine hours to create, but a personalised pattern can take more than 17 hours to hand-craft.
Gallery Clean Room
There is also a centre at “Home of Rolls-Royce” called the Gallery Clean Room, which was specially built to install works of art within a glass enclosure that spans the full width of the flagship Phantom’s fascia called the Gallery.
