The 20hp was introduced after the first world war as an 'affordable' alternative to the Ghost. Again coachbuilt bodies so have similar style, but much smaller. The Phantom range ran right through to the Phantom VI. Phantom IIII being only available to Royalty and Heads of State.

I did have a Dinky Toy of a Phantom IV - in Royal Blue no less. Never knew they were only for certain clientele though.

Interesting article on the history of the Phantom IV.

Possibly the most famous Phantom VI are the ones in service in the Royal Mews and the ex John Lennon painted in a psychedelic colour scheme.
