Description from the seller
Rolls-Royce - Phantom VI - owned by Engelbert Humperdinck - 1970
GENERAL:
Exceptional Rolls-Royce Phantom VI with a unique provenance, previously owned by Engelbert Humperdinck. This example presents as a carefully maintained vehicle with a high degree of originality, complemented by sensible restoration work where necessary. A rare opportunity to acquire a classic Rolls-Royce with documented celebrity ownership.
EXTERIOR & BODYWORK:
The paintwork remains in solid condition, showing only minor age-related imperfections such as light scratches. The body is free from dents and shows no signs of rust. Only minimal cosmetic touch-ups have been carried out to preserve its originality. All rubber seals have been fully restored, and the windows are clear and free from scratches. Chrome elements, including the bumpers, have been professionally re-chromed and present very well. The lighting units are also in excellent condition.
TECHNICAL:
Mechanically, the car is in very good condition. The brakes, tyres, belts, and clutch all function as intended and are in strong condition. The engine runs smoothly and starts effortlessly, both from cold and when warm. The gearbox shifts well, with only a slight oil seepage noted. Although there is no formal maintenance history file, the vehicle has been serviced consistently on an annual basis.
INTERIOR:
The interior remains largely original and retains its classic Rolls-Royce character. The upholstery is in good overall condition, with the front seats having been professionally reupholstered in keeping with the original specification. No major components have been replaced or modified, preserving the authenticity of the cabin.
DOCUMENTATION:
The vehicle is supplied with its original manuals and is currently registered in the seller’s name. Importantly, it retains documentation confirming previous ownership by Engelbert Humperdinck, including a UK registration certificate issued in his name. Supporting documentation is available and shown in the accompanying photos.
COLLECTION / DELIVERY:
Collection by appointment. Transport or international delivery can be arranged upon request.
OTHER INFORMATION:
This Phantom VI represents a rare combination of originality, careful upkeep, and unique provenance. A highly collectible example that would suit both enthusiasts and collectors seeking a distinguished and historically Rolls-Royce.

Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road. It is advised to carefully read our submission guidelines that further describe details about the condition grades and types to manage your expectations. Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration. Neither the seller nor Catawiki is responsible for the registration of the vehicle in your country and will not accept a cancellation for your failure to register the vehicle. We also recommend that, if possible, you arrange a viewing with the seller before placing a bid.
