Rolls-Royce Phantom 2007 Nānā
ʻAʻole hiki ʻoe i kou wahi e hele ai. ʻOʻoleʻa loa. Maʻa mau loa.
Hāʻawi ʻia kekahi. Hoʻokahi mea maoli. Puka mai kekahi.
ʻOiaʻiʻo, ʻike ʻoe iā ʻoe iho e ʻōlelo "hoʻokahi" a me ka hoʻohana pinepine ʻana i ka wehewehe ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi ma mua o ka mea maʻamau. ʻO ke kaʻa (no ka mea he inoa kūpono ka "kaʻa") i kēia hopena. Ma waena o nā mea ʻē aʻe.
Hiki iā Carsguide ke ʻōlelo i kēia me ka liʻiliʻi o ka haʻahaʻa, e hoʻomaka ana i kā mākou Rolls-Royce i ka pule i hala ma kahi hana i hiki ke wehewehe wale ʻia ʻo Trivett Classic koʻikoʻi koʻikoʻi maikaʻi loa iā mākou i nā proles ink-fingered.
No Rolls-Royce he mea maoli ia i kēlā me kēia lā no ka poʻe nona ke kūʻai ʻana i kaʻa no $ 1 miliona ʻaʻole i ʻoi aku (maliʻi paha) ma mua o ka Mazda6 no ka hapa nui o mākou. Ua loaʻa hou ʻo John Lowes i kekahi, e like me Lindsey Fox.
ʻO Bevin Clayton ʻo Trivett, he kanaka i helu i ka mea hoʻokipa TV i hoʻomaha ʻia a me ka mogul kaʻa i waena o kāna mau mea kūʻai aku, ʻaʻole hiki ke noʻonoʻo i nā noi no ke komo ʻana i kāna ʻoihana kaʻa. Ua kūʻai aku ʻo ia i ʻeono Rolls i kēia mahina e hoʻolauleʻa ai i ka hoʻouna ʻana i kāna 50th Phantom i Australia a me New Zealand i nā makahiki ʻehā, ʻaʻole pono ʻo ia.
Eia naʻe, me ka ʻakaʻaka iā mākou, ʻōlelo ʻo Clayton e holo mākou i kāna mea hōʻike Phantom, "a laila ua loaʻa."
ʻO kēia ka Phantom Tungsten, ke kolu o nā kumu hoʻohālike mai ka hōʻiliʻili ʻo Bespoke Collection. Me ʻelua mau huahelu ma ka odometer, ʻo ia wale nō ka mea ma ka ʻāina.
Ma muli o ka 101EX Coupe i hōʻike ʻia ma Geneva i ka makahiki i hala, ʻo ka Tungsten me kona hue metala hohonu a me ka hoʻohālikelike ʻana i ka puʻupuʻu alumini i hoʻopaʻa ʻia e ʻike koke ʻia, e like me nā huila huila 21-inihi ʻehiku hou. ʻO nā ʻoki tailpipe chrome pālua ʻelua e hoʻoikaika nui i ke kaʻa hōʻike.
Me ka swipe wikiwiki, wehe ʻo Clayton i ka mua a me ka puka ma hope o ka pepehi kanaka (i hoʻopaʻa ʻia me nā umbrellas carbon fiber ma loko).
He pupule waiwai. ʻAʻole ʻokoʻa ka ʻeke ʻeleʻele ʻeleʻele a me ka ʻili manu ʻāhiʻe me ka lāʻau rosa Hikina Hikina (Ke ʻai mau nei ʻo Rolls i kā lākou mau mea hana lāʻau mai nā mea hana moku moku ma Southampton) a me nā paneling metala.
ʻAʻohe mea ʻino o kēia wā e hoʻopōʻino i ke ʻano kuʻuna o ka huila hoʻokele slim. ʻAʻole ʻike ʻia ka pale media leo a me ke kelepona ma hope o ka facade honua kahiko ke ʻole ke kāhea ʻia.
'Ōleloʻo Clayton, kū'ē i ka cliché, kokoke i nā Rolls a pau āna e kūʻai aku ai, ua hoʻokeleʻia e ka poʻe i uku iā lākou: "No ke aha e uku ai i $ 1 miliona no ka mea kaʻa e hauʻoli ai?" Eia naʻe, nui nā mea e ʻōlelo ʻia no ka noho ʻana ma luna o nā noho aliʻi kiʻekiʻe ʻelua.
Ma waho aʻe o nā pale kikohoʻe e hoʻopili ana mai ke kua o ka noho mua a pāʻani me ka leo o ke kahua pāʻani, ma luna o lākou ke poʻo poʻo Starlight kūʻokoʻa. ʻO kahi pāʻoihana "kūikawā akā nani" ʻo Rolls ka inoa kūpono i ka mea hoʻopili, kahi 600 mau kukui fiber-optic i hoʻokomo ʻia i loko o ka uhi ʻili ʻeleʻele i hana i kahi hōʻike akua e hāʻawi pū ana i ka mālamalama heluhelu.
Akā makemake nā mea kūʻai mai o Clayton e ʻōwili i kā lākou mau mittens i hoʻopaʻa ʻia a puni kēlā mahiʻai ʻili, no laila, aia ia ma mua o mākou ke alakaʻi nei ʻo ia i ka colossus 2.5-toni ma waena o nā ala haiki ʻehaʻeha o East Sydney a hiki i ke alanui William.
ʻO ka liʻiliʻi e like me William St - ʻo ke kani ʻoi loa ke komo i ka puka aniani pālua. A ʻaʻole keakea ka ʻenekini. Inā ʻaʻole i pane ka Phantom i ka pedal kinoea me ka wikiwiki loa (5.9 kekona ka manawa i ʻōlelo ʻia he 0-kph), hoʻohiki kekahi (ʻo ʻoe, a pau) ua nalowale ka mana. ʻOi aku ka maʻalahi o kēia 100-lita V6.75 ma mua o ka hybrid.
Ke manaʻo nei ʻo Clayton e hoʻokele ʻoe me nā lima hū iki (ua ʻoki ʻia nā kui me nā ʻoki wahine i ka pō nei), hiki iā ʻoe ke hoʻomaopopo i ke kumu o ka haʻalele ʻana o Lowes a me nā mea ʻē aʻe iā Jeeves ma ka home.
I ka pau ʻana o ka makaʻu ʻōpoʻo, huli ka Phantom i kahi holo leʻaleʻa ma kona ʻano maʻalahi. Mai kahi kūlana hoʻokele SUV kokoke loa, māmā a pololei ka hoʻokele e hiki ai iā ʻoe ke hoʻokele i kahi mea ʻoi aku ka māmā. No ka hiki wawe aku i kou wahi e hele ai, e kaomi i ke pihi L, aia ma ka aoao akau o ka huila, a lele aku keia moku moku.
E like me kā Clayton i ʻōlelo ai, ʻaʻole e ʻike ʻia ka huaʻōlelo "waftablity" ma ka puke wehewehe ʻōlelo, akā e mau nō ia ma ka huaʻōlelo Roll-Royce. Loaʻa ka nui o kēlā mea holo lana, ʻaʻole naʻe i ke kumu e hoʻoulu ai i ka maʻi kai, kahi pōmaikaʻi o ka hoʻokuʻu ʻana i ka ea i loaʻa iā BMW ka waiwai. ʻO ka ʻoiaʻiʻo, maikaʻi loa ia ʻaʻole ʻoe e ʻike i kahi hōʻailona ʻē aʻe o BMW, nā kaʻa paʻa paʻa.
ʻO kekahi ʻano liʻiliʻi liʻiliʻi akā maoli maoli ka hopena o ka wikiō i hoʻi mai i ka home i koʻu hoʻoholo ʻana e lawe iā ia i ka home mai kahi kiʻi kiʻi ma ka Redfern Carriage Works kahiko ma nā alanui i manaʻoʻiʻo nā mea kūʻai aku aia ma Surry Hills. Inā paha i hana ʻia ka Phantom me ka uliuli a me ke keʻokeʻo me ka mālamalama ma luna, ua emi mai paha ka manaʻo, akā kānalua wau.
He mau huahelu ʻelua ka Tungsten ma ka uaki i ka wā aʻu - i kēia manawa i hoʻoikaika ʻia - hoʻokomo ʻia i loko o ka hale kaʻa o Trivett, akā ua lawa kēlā wili e hōʻike ai i ke kumu o ka hoʻohui ʻana o Rolls-Royce no ka liʻiliʻi.
ʻO kaʻu hoʻokō koʻikoʻi ʻo ka hoʻohana ʻana i 39.5 lita o ka petrol unleaded premium no 100 km, kahi ʻike ʻo ia wale nō ka mea hoʻonāwaliwali o ka ʻike. ʻAʻole e haʻi i ke kumukūʻai ʻehiku, hiki iaʻu ke hoʻopiha hou i ka pahu pahu Roller.
