Rolls-Royce – The Epitome of Luxury

Established since 1906, Rolls-Royce has long been the preferred car brand for emperors, the wealthy, and the famous. In its over 100 years of existence, Rolls-Royce has been renowned for its exceptional luxury cars. Many customers have turned to Rolls-Royce when they desire to own the most unique and exclusive luxury cars. One such customer was His Highness Hari Singh, the ruler of Jammu and Kashmir, India.

While he was alive, His Highness Hari Singh commissioned Rolls-Royce to build for him a one-of-a-kind car with the 20/25 HP model. This 1933 Rolls-Royce 20/25 HP was used by the Indian ruler for hunting expeditions.

According to some sources, this is the only Rolls-Royce in the world that was custom-made with a unique wagon body. Additionally, the 20/25 HP model owned by the Indian ruler was equipped with a rear compartment for additional storage, a feature not found in any other Rolls-Royce car.

Furthermore, the 1933 Rolls-Royce 20/25 HP owned by the Indian ruler even comes with its own picnic table. Whenever needed, His Highness Hari Singh could simply flip out the picnic table from the rear storage compartment.

After serving the Indian ruler for 13 years, the 1933 Rolls-Royce 20/25 HP was brought back to England. In 1982, the one-of-a-kind car was sent to Germany for a complete restoration. This restoration project is considered the most impressive pre-war car restoration project in the world, as voted by the Rolls-Royce Enthusiasts’ Club Switzerland.

Pride of Rolls-Royce

After the restoration, the 1933 Rolls-Royce 20/25 HP has been featured in numerous magazines over the years. Rolls-Royce also used this unique car for advertising due to its distinctive vintage design.

Currently, the 1933 Rolls-Royce 20/25 HP, which used to be the hunting car of the Indian ruler, is located in Kaiserslautern, Germany. The car is being auctioned to find a new owner. The auction of this one-of-a-kind car is expected to end on September 25th. It is highly likely that the 1933 Rolls-Royce 20/25 HP will be sold for approximately 200,000 pounds, equivalent to 6.1 billion Vietnamese Dong.
