Unknown manufacturer: Rolls-Royce Phantom
: Although we received information that three models in different scales of the new model have been spotted at the Detroit Motor Show, and that the 1/87 model on display was a Wiking model we think it is unlikely that the 1/87 model was actually made by Wiking since Rolls-Royce belongs to the BMW group and other BMW and Mini models have been released by Herpa. Both Herpa and Wiking have denied working on the new Phantom in the meantime.
