First step: prepare yourself for the greatest automobile ever.At least that’s what the journalists say. This
beautiful machine was hand made in England to
carry the rich and famous around.
The keys to her heart.The Rolls Royce Phantom utilizes a variant
system of the iDrive systems found on the BMWs.
Therefore the key looks and acts very similar. The
“RR” button locks the car, the up arrow unlocks,
and the square button opens the trunk (to close the
trunk, located on the inside of the boot is a button
that will automatically close the compartment). If
you have been handed the single valet key you
will need to utilize the car’s manual key slots.
Opening the front door on the coupes you will

hinge. This “suicide door” is also found in the rear

far, these doors are long and open much wider
than a traditional vehicle.

into the vehicle they may choose to hit the door
close button located inside the vehicle, this will
automatically close the rear doors. This car also
uses automatic latches to completely close the
doors. Once the door comes in contact with the
latch, it will close automatically eliminating the
need to slam the heavy doors on this 5798 lbs.
vehicle.

The legend. The lady.
The famous “flying lady” Rolls Royce hood ornament
can be controlled manually or automatically. Most
users will have it set up to retract into the grill
automatically when the car is locked. However if
this is not the case, the controls are located in the
glove box and can be accessed by depressing the
circular button under the key slot. This will expose
the switch panel. If the ornament is in manual
mode, simply press the down arrow button until the
flying lady is hidden within the grill. If you happen
to be driving the Rolls Royce equipped with the
outrageous $200,000 diamond filled “Spirit of
Ecstasy” hood ornament you should probably
make sure it’s down and hidden!
