The Phantom VI was an ultra-exclusive Rolls-Royce model from the 1970s and 1980s produced in London at Mulliner Park Ward. It was made from 1968-1991. Though it had been expressed that the days of motor cars of the like of the Rolls-Royce Phantom V were undoubtedly numbered in 1968 Rolls-Royce launched the Phantom VI as a logical progression keeping up the high standards set in the past. The Phantom VI had a re-styled facia and was powered by an engine developed from that of the current Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow. An increase in capacity to 6,750 cc in 1979 was coupled with the introduction of a 3-speed automatic transmission instead of the previously employed 4-speed automatic gearbox. This last specimen of a passenger motor car with separate chassis produced by Rolls-Royce was offered until 1991.

Engine

The Phantom had an 90 degree V8 with a capacity of 6,230 cc. This was raised in 1982 to 6,750 cc, which came from the Rolls-Royce Silver Spirit. The car had a 4-speed automatic gearbox (from 1979 a 3-speed automatic gearbox with torque converter became standard). The wheelbase was 3,683 mm.

When production ended 377 were made.
