Thinking of buying the 2008 Rolls-Royce Phantom?

No 2008 Rolls-Royce Phantom is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. Before you buy the 2008 Rolls-Royce Phantom, see the figures and the checks worth doing.

A buyer's checks

NHTSA lists 1 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent.

The figures, translated

The 6.7L 12-cylinder, paired with a 6-speed automatic, drives it. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.

Its combined rating is 16.8 L/100 km, which means roughly 50 litres for 300 km. The fuel for 100 km comes to about $29.40 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$5,850 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.

When the Phantom makes sense

It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one.

Space, size and seats

A car body like this keeps the weight low, so it feels settled on the highway. Luggage space is rated at 396 litres: about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

Try before you buy

Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience. A week with the Phantom answers more than any brochure. Rent the Phantom first, and buy only if it fits your life.

Which one to look for

Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it.

Running costs

Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.

Over to you

Ask us anything about renting before you buy.

Rent it for a week before you buy

A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent a 2008 Rolls-Royce Phantom from us first.
