Rolls-Royce is known for the customisation programmes they offer to those who can afford it. Responsible for executing the made-to-order designs and modifications on the cars is the Bespoke depratment of the manufacturer. 

The Rolls-Royce in question here is a Wraith built for the founder of mattress company Sleep Innovations, philanthropist and avid car collector Michael Fux. The unique paint scheme officially called Aequus Green and Cornish White, was personally selected by Fux for the car. The lower portions of the car including the bumpers, fenders and doors are finished in the shade of green while the rest of the car is finished in white. The Spirit of Ecstasy on the front grille is unique, being made entirely of glass.

The interior of this Wraith is finished in the Aequus Green shade with contrasting inserts across the cabin. To further personalise the Rolls-Royce, the owner's name has been inscribed on steel plates on the door sills.The bespoke Wraith continues to use the same 6.6-litre V12 making 624bhp mated to an eight-speed automatic gearbox.
