100 years of the Rolls Royce Phantom

Royal Automobile Club’s Magnificent Displays

August 4, 2025 By pete

In a class of its own: Displayed in front of the clubhouse, 1955 Osca FS372. Introduced in 1955, the FS372 debuted with the upgraded 1491cc twin-spark engine. Only five were constructed. This example was purchased by Sir Stirling Moss in 2008 and raced by him at various historic motor sports events.
