Rolls-Royce Brings Historic Phantoms To Goodwood Revival

A century of ultra-luxury comes to the Goodwood Revival.

The Rolls-Royce Phantom is a nameplate that has been undeniably revered and celebrated by the automotive industry for decades. Representing the pinnacle of the luxury that Rolls-Royce offers, few vehicles have ever been able to exude the level of opulence and prestige that the Rolls-Royce Phantom has possessed over the years, and in 2025, the Rolls-Royce Phantom is celebrating its 100th anniversary as the manufacturer’s flagship model.

Part of that year-long celebration took place at this year’s Goodwood Revival, an event bringing classic cars to race at the iconic venue right next to Rolls-Royce’s own home in England for an unabashed celebration of automotive history. Meanwhile, the Rolls-Royce Phantom was proudly on display as it celebrated a century of ultra-luxury excellence with five examples from throughout that 100 years.
