Rolls Royce Reveals 3 Bespoke Phantoms

On the eve of the 2018 Geneva Motor show, Rolls Royce unveiled a trio bespoke Phantom models and each one curated for 'specific patrons of the brand'.The Gentleman's Tourer




Out of these 3 models, the first one is 'The Gentleman's Tourer' – a short wheelbase car inspired by the Phantom II from the 1930s.

Inside, the Gentleman's Tourer apparently exudes a 'masculine, utilitarian-feeling', with 'tones of Black, Selby Grey and Anthracite leathers'. Each door panel features an embossed Spirit of Ecstasy, while the Piano Black veneer features silver pinstriping.






The second and the third of this bespoke phantom are Extended Wheelbase models.

The first is called 'Whispered Muse' and has been created by designer Helen Amy Murray, using special colours, silks and veneers. Rolls-Royce says the Piano Seashell trim has been hand polished for 12 hours, while the exterior paint is made up of 10 layers, the last of which is glass infused for a crystal effect.

The final bespoke Phantom is titled 'A Moment in Time'. Another customer-commissioned EWB car, it uses solid aluminium, Piano Milori Sapphire veneer and hand stitched embroidery to create yet another unique limousine. This car, however, has just six layers of paint.

The Rolls Royce guys are not smiling.

2018 Geneva Auto Show Launches, With Booth Babes Everywhere

Contrary to an earlier thread that said automakers were banning booth babes from their show stands. It seems some automakers didn't get the memo, as quite a few models have been photographed strutting their stuff with new and concept car models

The world's biggest and most important motor show takes place at the Palexpo Arena in Geneva, Switzerland, from 6-8 March for the media before opening to the public between 8 and 18 March.
You can follow our daily Geneva Motor Show news as it happens on our dedicated hub here, but in this article, we will be updating an A-Z listing of every new car, world debut and launch scheduled (and rumored) regularly in the time before and during the press days.
There are plenty of highly anticipated introductions to get excited about the 2018 Swiss car expo. You can see every one of them below, but just to get your engines running, some of the new production debuts include the Volvo V60, Peugeot 508 and the hot Mercedes-AMG GT4.

If you're into things of the future, Geneva will be home to a boatload of concepts, from Toyota's Gazoo Supra and VW's stab at a Tesla Model S rival with the ID Vizzion to -possibly- a BMW M8 study.

A Vet Doctor Massages A Snake To Get Out Swallowed Tennis Ball

Few months ago in Benue State it was reported that snake swallowed JAMB's N36million naira. However the JAMB issue is still under investigation to ascertain the claim of the suspect.



The video below show a snake with a Vet Doctor battling to save the snake that swallowed a tennis ball and the vet had to gently massage it out of it.


I think Nigeria should contract this Vet to locate the mysterious snake that swallowed the JAMB  N35 million and massage it out of her.
