Rolls-Royce has created a one-of-a-kind car, the Rolls-Royce Manchester Ghost, to pay tribute to the city of Manchester. The car is customized with features that represent the city, such as the Manchester Bee emblem that has been hand-painted in “Turchese” on the car’s C-pillar.

The interior of the car also has Mancunian-inspired features, like the Manchester Bee motif embroidered on all four seats, and more than 10,000 illuminated laser-etched dots mapping Manchester from above on the dashboard fascia. The customization continues with tone-on-tone embroidery of various Mancunian landmarks on the central seat pillar and “MCR” binary-inscribed illuminated door treadplates.

“I am proud to unveil the Manchester Ghost, a truly special one-of-one embodiment of artistry and skill, curated in collaboration with our Dealer Partners from Rolls-Royce Motor Cars Manchester, said Boris Weletzky, Regional Director of Rolls-Royce Motor Cars, United Kingdom, Europe, CIS. “As Charles Rolls and Henry Royce first met in Manchester, the city has, and always will have, a potent historical resonance for the marque.”

The headliner features a graphene lattice-inspired pattern, which pays tribute to two University of Manchester professors who first utilized the properties of graphene. The Rolls-Royce Manchester Ghost took more than two years to make.

“Our accomplished artisans, designers and engineers at the Home of Rolls-Royce at Goodwood, West Sussex have created a truly remarkable motor car, capturing the city’s history, and the city today, as well as celebrating some of its most remarkable accomplishments,” Weletzky added. “The Manchester Ghost brings together the Home of Rolls-Royce where each motor car is hand built and the city where the original idea for Rolls-Royce was born.”
