Rolls-Royce Cullinan

Rolls-Royce Ghost

When it comes to making a statement about how successful you are, there is no brand that shouts “I’ve made it!” more emphatically than Rolls-Royce.

If that’s all you want from your car, look no further. The firm has expanded its range in recent years, with the top-of-the-range Phantom saloon being joined by the Cullinan SUV, and other models including the Wraith and Ghost.

Whichever way you go, if you have to ask how much it costs, the chances are you can’t afford it. And, even then, the base price is unlikely to be what you end up spending, such is the list of alluring options on offer.

It’s also a moot point whether the cars themselves – rather than the image they portray – represents the very best way to spend your money. What Car?’s testers rate all of them positively but reckon that – if you’re buying with your head rather than your heart – there are other cars that you should also consider.

ROLLS-ROYCE

Rolls-Royce could make an SUV, new boss Harald Krueger has admitted to What Car?. Krueger was keen to stress that no formal discussions had taken place at BMW board level, but he is keen to consider new arrivals to the Rolls-Royce family in order for the British luxury brand to continue expanding. Such a car would be a formidable rival for the forthcoming Bentley SUV, and could fit into Ghost family which is also likely to shortly include a convertible, possibly called Corniche, and a Coupe.

Krueger also admitted that any new models would only ever be built in the UK. 'There is no alternative because of their production complexities,' he said. Further Rolls-Royce development could include more bespoke limited-edition models in the mould of the recently announced Phantom Coupe Aviator to meet customer demand for more individual and expensive models. Future specials might include models with unique bodywork and design. <a href="https://www.whatcar.com/make/rolls-royce">More Rolls-Royce reviews &gt;&gt;</a>
