Ciao everyone here it's Marchettino and today I'm in Monaco for a test wrapped up in luxury!
Today I'm in Monaco because I'm onboard this RR Wraith, let's say this its hometown
as you see I'm here with Donze93 - Hi guys!
Over the years many of you asked me to make a video with Ale, the truth is how long do we know each other? - 2007!
Today I'm here to make a video because Ale invited me to test around Monaco his RR, fantastic!
The Rolls is - size aside! - This is the baby Rolls actually, about 5.28m long!
And also the most young oriented model because Rolls made this car in 2014 to approach a new, younger clientele.
'Till now with Ghost and Phantom, they aren't models designed for youngs.
Exact that was a clientele looking for a chaffeur - Yes more like businessmen that want to be driven around.
I think it's hard to find other cars that are able to compete with RR in terms of comfort, performance, luxury
maybe I'd say the Bentley Mulsanne but aside that I think there's no other cars.
6.6L V12 with 634hp, you feel it! - My goodness!
In the city it's about 2.5km per litre!
We had 120km of autonomy, now 73!
On the highway, it's about 4 to 6km per litre, it's all about the driving style.
It gets to 260kph!
I'd drive like this all the time, even though it's not a car that wants you to go fast, it's more about the comfort rather than speed
Exact, in fact it's a car that is cool to drive around Monaco because at the end, do you really want to go in the hills that is fast but also need to slow down?
It's more than 2.4t - curb weight! It's a house on wheels!
It's truly impressive under every aspect but what are the qualities you like most?
Inside this car, comfort aside - You truly feel pampered!
At night with the starlight.. - This is awesome!
I saw in the RR factory that if you opt the starlight, you can have it custom, for example
you like a particular constellation or you want the starlight to compose a message, you can have it!
Exact, Rolls offers a maximum tailor made configuration, you can spec pretty much everything
Now everyone follow the trend to offer the maximum configuration to the client but RR is doing that since many years!
Having already driven other RR models like the Ghost, Phantom and Drophead
onbooard a RR you feel like you're not inside like any other car but on a Rolls, it's a sensation you feel only on this car.
Under some aspects, if we talk about tech this is still old school compared to the new models with touch screen and stuff like that
here you still have the physical button for every action
Honestly I'm fine with it because I don't like touch screen or the display all over the dash - They tend to break down more easily
RR is still classic under this aspect.
And it's crazy to see that close to 2020, a company that on their range models offer only a V12 engine!
You bought this car brand new and it already has 13.000km but I didn't realize you bought it this February and now it's October!
In February it was new with 17km! - My goodness
You didn't spec it but I like it, it's very elegant.
Yes and it's pretty much full option, about 15.000€ the starlight alone! - 15k!
14.000€ the african wood, beige interior with contrast brown stitching, about 4/5.000€
two-tone grey and black paint about 9000€, diamond painted wheels about 7-8.000€
every option is crazy priced! - You realize RR ain't cars for everyone!
This one was 393.000€ brand new - All custom and full option, it's not hard to hit half million.
I can't pass! - Nope we can't, he's about to move.
It's so big that being so tight for the streets of Monaco, if someone stops in the middle of the road I can't pass!
Cop told him to move!
Is it a car that grabs the attention outside Monaco?
In Monaco everyone's used to see it - A lot! Lots of people don't know it so you see many people like old ones get close and say " Oh it's a Rolls! "
The thing that impresses mostly the crowd, it's the size because with 5.30m you see it
many recognize it because of that famous song about this brand, many people repeat that song but yeah it's an attention grabber.
Not as much as when I had the Aventador S though - As you understand, Ale loves not to get noticed!
I think it's crazy under every aspect but, there's always a BUT.. it's not very useable
The size make it hard to use - It's not all about the size, in Monaco you can leave it everywhere, well where you can otherwise it get towed
in Italy, you can't. In France, you can't. Sometimes it's too much, understand?
It's very flashy even though it's gray and black which isn't really an attention grabbing spec
but the truth is that it's huge with a massive presence on the road, look at this road
I feel like I have 2cm on the left and 2cm on the right - Plus with the cyclist and the sight!
The great thing about this car, you have 4 years of free maintenance, guarantee, tires and brakes also.
One thing I noticed it's a car you can't fast and safe because the steering - It's very light and I wouldn't trust it at high speed
Such a fantastic V12, it's a shame in the next years we won't see engines like this anymore. - It's BMW derived
All the electronics is BMW derived which isn't a bad thing to me - BMW makes marvellous cars.
Marco, I hope you've understood the Rolls around Monaco is.. - I want the Twizy!
Driving around Monaco you've noticed it's a bit stressing! - The same sensation I had when I drove the other Rolls
they're cool and pleasant to drive, it's a truly unique driving experience but they're a nightmare in the city!
Every space seems way too small for it.
Whenever I turn the steering, it feels like to be rudder of the boat!
Being onboard of a RR, it's a unique experience. I keep thinking RR doesn't have rivals
when it comes the union of performance, comfort and luxury, crazy!
If I had some millions and bigger roads, I would think about it!
I keep dreaming and I thank Ale for this test. I remind you his Instagram is in the video description below.
