Rolls Royce Handlye Special
A coachbuilder stopped for a 1400 hp engine in an aged Rolls-Royce Phantom II.

Well, you should what if you are not satisfied with the 120 hp that get you high elderly Rolls-Royce delivers. One Robin Beech assembled, therefore, on the chassis of an 85-year-old Phantom II, a Rolls-Royce Merlin Aero engine from a Hawker Hurricane aircraft, and built there then a private coach around it. The Rolls-Royce Handlye Special with 27 litre V12 delivers an extreme 1400 hp, if you are methanol to it. The top is around 300 km/h, and fuel consumption? That is, at best, 1 on 1.

Here this classic monster as a burnout at the start of a hill climb. The result will amaze you, no bizarre fast acceleration but mainly a lot of smoke. Check it out on autojunk.nl.
