Reported to cost a breathtaking $ 13,000,000 (AED 47,750,000), the one-off Rolls Royce Sweptail is a testament to the brand’s craftsmanship and is the realization of one individual’s coach-built dream. Unveiled at Villa d’Este, the Sweptail is a story that dates to 2013 when a mystery individual approached the brand to build a one-off luxury car to go with his collection of superyachts and private aircraft.
