In keeping with the Rolls-Royce tradition of a two-model policy, the 20/25 was engineered to be the smaller sibling to Rolls-Royce’s larger Phantom II. Like all Rolls-Royce models, the 20/25 was a careful, strategic evolution of the previous 20 horsepower model.

Thanks to the increased engine output, coachbuilders such as Vanden Plas, Freestone and Webb, Park Ward, Brewster, Gurney Nutting, Coachcraft and Thrupp & Maberly could offer more lavish coachwork without the hazard of reducing satisfactory performance. Almost 4,000 20/25 chassis were manufactured and sold between 1929 and 1936, making it one of Rolls-Royce’s best-selling contemporary models.
This 20/25 was originally delivered to Windovers LTD to receive a coachbuilt body, but it was rebodied sometime later in its life. Today, the car wears an open body in the style of racing cars of the period. It has a full convertible top, convertible boot cover and side windows. This Rolls-Royce is ready to be driven by its next owner or it could serve as the basis for anything they have in mind.
