The 2012 Rolls-Royce Ghost: before you buy
CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 2012 Rolls-Royce Ghost for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. Before you buy the 2012 Rolls-Royce Ghost, see the figures and the checks worth doing.
What to check on the Ghost
Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN.
The figures, translated
Its powertrain is the 6.6L 12-cylinder turbo with rear-wheel drive. The turbo gives a small engine the pull of a bigger one when you need it. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.
A combined rating of 15.2 L/100 km works out to about 46 litres per 300 km. A weekend of 300 km comes to about $79.80 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$5,500 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
Who it is for
It uses more fuel than most, so it suits shorter trips or people who need its size. It suits people curious about the model who want to drive it before they buy.
Living with the Ghost
As a large sedan, it is easy to drive and park in the city. The EPA measures its luggage space at 396 litres, roughly about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.
Drive it on your own roads
A week with the Ghost answers more than any brochure. Try the Ghost on your commute, then decide. Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide.
Narrowing it down
Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay.
What it costs to run
Premium gas adds to the running cost compared with a car on regular. The EPA estimates US$5,500 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.
