The first four of these Bespoke cars have been unveiled for the first time today at the Sanderson Hotel in London by the artists who created them in partnership with Rolls-Royce Motor Cars: The Who frontman Roger Daltrey CBE, Sir Ray Davies of The Kinks, and Giles Martin, son of world-renowned songwriter and producer Sir George Martin.

The British music legends worked in close partnership with Rolls-Royce's design experts at the Home of Rolls-Royce in Goodwood, England to create ultimate one-of-a-kind collectors' pieces for the most ardent fans of each artist. These highly Bespoke Wraith motor cars will be sold later in 2017, with Rolls-Royce donating a proportion of the value of each to charities selected by each artist.
