Today, Rolls Royce uses only twelve-cylinder engines for the drives of its cars. Before the World War II, the only model with the V12 under the bonnet was Phantom III.

The car was produced between 1936 and 1939 and many have survived to this day. The 7.3 liter Phantom engine was quite modern in its time. The car was equipped with spoked wheels as standard. Phantom accelerated to 140 km / h, and the first hundred achieved in less than 17 seconds. At the same time, he burned an average of 28 liters of fuel per 100 km
