Its got the Kahn 22inch Wheels on it and it has been painted in Pearl white which is not a standard rolls royce color. It looks really nice up close the color really changes the look of the car.

It looks good but i think that's because they haven't changed too much, unlike when they did the Range Rover. Pics when you get it wink

Can you not but a RR in any colour that you want? Seems a bit bonkers that they wont paint you a new car in any shade of white that you like. It is not like you want it in gold....hmm that would never happen.

Looks remarkably restrained for a Khan conversion. Nice enough I suppose, although think I'd have one in a colour more subtle if it were my choice.

What's the deal with buying one of these anyway, do Khan have them in stock or do you order from them and they order from RR?

Kahn buy them then do these custom converstions, they got amazing design ideas. When I went down there to buy it Kahn had his Buggati down there which was amazing. I was like in my dreams I might one day own one.

At least the wheel centre caps still work, like the original RR ones.

You are right that a Pearl White in the true sense of pearl paint systems are not a standard, or as we say, series option. We have however painted many Bespoke cars in trues 3-stage Pearl paint finishes.

The reason they are not standard are that they require very special attention to get consistent colour around the car. Consequently they take a different route through the paintshop here @ Goodwood and require ovens to be turned down to avoid yellowing the base and pearl coat during curing of the clearcoat.

Where abouts are you based? I would genuinely be very interested to see the standard of Kahn's aftermarket paintjob?

As you may have guessed, I work for RRMC in a Bespoke Paint capacity....

All the best - Nick.

I see, I had seen that other thread and read it with amusement, it hadn't occured to me they were the same individual... We're all having a good laugh about it here at Goodwood I assure you....

Cheers
