Maude Gasque’s 1926 Rolls-Royce Phantom I

A 1926 Rolls-Royce Phantom I with coachwork by Brougham De Ville (Registration no. YE 939, Chassis no. 76TC) is with an estimate of £500,000 – 700,000 ($610,000 – 850,000) one of the highlights of the 2016 Bonhams Bond Street Sale. The car famously has an interior inspired by the sedan chair of Marie Antoinette and more resembling a Palace of Versailles throne room than a standard car interior.
