Assume when you said 2.8kgs you meant 2.8t in the early walk around part of video. Nice of Riz to loan you his Spectre for the day though. ;) No fake wood in a Rolls. :) Can't the shooting star pattern also be the star pattern on the day you were born from memory of you and Riz talking about it on a recent live stream? The poor people in front of you in their Model Y. So glad you went across the coathanger as well, you had to do that. Even Robert/Fully Charged has not done a Spectre review. The interior noise level would have been interesting to check with one of those decibel-o-meter apps you can get if don't have a proper one, probably one of the quietest cars as well. Huge thank you to Rolls Royce Australia and of course your camera crew of Rob!!
What they charge for basics so many EVs and nice cars have is beyond offensive, and it doesn't even have keyless start, etc. but I loved your enthusiasm for the drive and loved watching you experience it! Thanks for bringing us all the fun of EVs around Syd/Australia Would have loved to see you rock up at a supercharger with this! 😅
I wanted to … but didn’t have time to drive it to Campbelltown to test the superchargers. At the time, Chatswood wasn’t open … but I would’ve been worried trying to navigate the tight carpark turns and ramps 😱
hi Tom when you punched it on the Cahill Exp I literally saw the instant torque of the twin motors, blimey I felt it through the screen on the Tablet....am getting my 2nd EV in Oct 24 Model BYD Seal PREMIUM
Beautiful car and review. Live in Sydney myself. Always wondered how those Rolls handle the roundabouts and tight streets and parking in Sydney? Do you get anxious driving it on the road?
Great video, I've got the same AR navigation in my BMW iX, many similarities taken from BMW into the rolls, also the whole screen OS is very similar to my car just a different colour.
The pillarless look with the windows down is absolute baller. Gorgeous car, next level luxury suits you Tom... one small pick, i noticed the lack of auto open/ close on the charge door? Or did i see it wrong? Definitely not a deal breaker though, says me who probably can't afford the umbrella let alone the car😅
Haha yeah I was tempted to open the brolly but was worried I could close/fold it to the RR standard! The charge door wasn’t automatic - had to push it to open
Time to take out the horses and hounds for an afternoon pheasant hunt, sir Tom? I bet that was one of your most nervous drives yet. Nice to see even though I’ll never afford one.
Not wearing a tie for the occasion? A review of a different kind....well done ! Edit: The drag coefficient has nothing to do with the size of the vehicle....it is a coefficient. The acutal aerodynamic drag is the frontal area times the coefficient. And: Most manufacturers cheat in removing mirrors and taping up gaps.
And you were game enough to drive a million dollar loan car! Wow. I don’t think I’d have wanted to touch the thing cause I would have been scared the whole time that something would happen.
It was nerve wracking initially but then it became second nature after the first hour … which in itself was kinda scary too because I forgot about the excess 🫣
With thanks to Rob Mulally for the beautiful drone footage!

The drone shots were perfect
Very welcome ! Can't wait till next time.
Electric power is really the ideal for rolls. Quiet, smooth, clean
Absolutely 🥂
Ideal for everything which moves.
The name is Tom, Tesla Tom.
😜
What a car. Full electric luxury with no loud noises or fumes.
It was an absolute dream to drive
The best vlog of yours so far. I can really feel the excitement and fun! Your comments make me smile and laugh too
Thanks so much! Felt very fortunate to have been given the opportunity 🙏
Lovely. You didn't show us the frunk for the groceries Tom!
Next time? 😁
That was epic at the end, nice job Tom. The sloping back of the car is my favourite.
Thanks! Yes the fastback probably helps with the drag coefficient

Yes well said, many thanks to RR for trusting me with the Spectre for the day 🙏 Hashtag grateful
Holy Smokes Tom, hope you had a great day with the rollers!🎉🎉
The best day 🙏
it actually happened!! congrats Tom! an experience for sure!
So grateful they let me drive it!
what a car! love your review as alwauys Tom, thanks for bringing us onto a tour of such a lavish vehicle.
Pleasure! I will treasure this experience for as long as I live I think 🙏

Great work Tom, certainly a bucket list item ticked off.
Cheers! Totally 🙏
hi Tom when you punched it on the Cahill Exp I literally saw the instant torque of the twin motors, blimey I felt it through the screen on the Tablet....am getting my 2nd EV in Oct 24 Model BYD Seal PREMIUM
Haha yeah it really packed a punch 😱🫣
Beautiful car and review. Live in Sydney myself. Always wondered how those Rolls handle the roundabouts and tight streets and parking in Sydney? Do you get anxious driving it on the road?
I must admit I was initially a bit anxious driving it especially knowing the insurance excess for the test drive! 😆
Fantastic Tom. Well done, excellent walk through and review. RR could use your drone footage with the audio in their advertisements.
Thanks! What an experience!
Omg that was amazing!!! Hey you should have done school pickup for me that day in Wahroonga!! 😂😂😂
🤣 They see me rolling …
Great video, I've got the same AR navigation in my BMW iX, many similarities taken from BMW into the rolls, also the whole screen OS is very similar to my car just a different colour.
Yup there’s a little bit of BMW in RR these days
Amazing drive from Rolls Royce Tom
Amazing car 😍
Do you think they'll offer a factory towbar option? I cant quite afford to have two cars so it's important that it can do everything you know.
Hopefully it’s V2X enabled also 🙏
Nice review Tom and you’re a brave man - with a $12,000 excess I’d be too scared to sit in it never mind drive it 😀
And the scary thing was it felt second nature after the first hour … so I forgot about the horrendous excess 😱
The pillarless look with the windows down is absolute baller. Gorgeous car, next level luxury suits you Tom... one small pick, i noticed the lack of auto open/ close on the charge door?

OMG I JUST CAME

Nervous for the first hour … but then sadly it felt second nature 😭😅
Love that colour.
😍
Wow going to be hard to go back to your SUV after cruising in a Spectre 🤩
I can’t go back, you can’t make me 😭😭
Well done Tom
🥂
Defs a niiice vehicle. Not sure about the suicide doors. Gorgeous big boi lines.
Stunning vehicle
They should have gotten Penelope Keith to voice the assistant :)
That would’ve been next level 😃
Good video, I'm sure it was a cool experience! One odd question, who pays the tolls during your test drive? LOL
Good question! I’ve never received a bill for the tolls to be honest …
Not wearing a tie for the occasion? A review of a different kind....well done ! Edit: The drag coefficient has nothing to do with the size of the vehicle....it is a coefficient. The acutal aerodynamic drag is the frontal area times the coefficient. And: Most manufacturers cheat in removing mirrors and taping up gaps.
Good to know about how the Drag works 👍
Can you still get the optional machine guns in the grill, Tom?
🤣 I didn’t try them out
No EV triangle on the number plate as required in NSW?
Wooo good point
Wow, put your foot on the brake pedal and the door closes.. just like a Model X. Wonder if they've taken a couple of pages out of Tesla's book there.
Whaddayaknow!
Nice 👍. I noticed King Charles is going EV…. Maybe another Spectre comrade 😅
His Majesty’s Spectre? 👑
congrats Tom and thank god you didn't hit the Sydney Harbour Bridge
Can you imagine 😱
You're so funny, "Way above my pay grade"
I speak the truth 😆
Front camera with AR directions, pretty good. I might repurpose my old sheep skin rugs as car mats.
Great idea 😁
thats cool
thats cool
So very cool
Come for the Rolls. Stay for Tom's anxiety.
😅 $12k excess successfully avoided
What a car! Thanks for showing us how other 1% lives 😁
Now we’ve all had a taste 🥂
Didn’t watch the video all the way through does anyone know the energy consumption figures ? Highway and around town?
The official RR spec sheet I was given stated 22-23 kWh / 100km
Nice work Tom. Strange to think this car is worth twice as much as I paid for my house 😂
Haha crazy right 😜
nice!
🥂
!EXPENSIVE!
😂
Q. Did you feel like James Bond when driving this through leafy Wharoonga?
Absolutely! 😎
I wonder how much ? For average people
Average RR Spectre is $1m+ after ORC
@@LudicrousFeed oh well. Thanks good to know. Maybe if one day I will power ball. But I rather get
Mansion near beach
Same colour as mine!
@@mikerowe402 Twinsies!
What was the excess if you damaged it 😮
Keep watching ...
$5k for regular media
$12k for “influencers”
And you were game enough to drive a million dollar loan car! Wow. I don’t think I’d have wanted to touch the thing cause I would have been scared the whole time that something would happen.
It was nerve wracking initially but then it became second nature after the first hour … which in itself was kinda scary too because I forgot about the excess 🫣
Cool car, just needs an Uber sticker on the window😂
Didi too? 😁
If I win the $100 million tonight I may purchase one. New a good car to go to Bunnings.
And Maccas drive through!
Start/Stop ENGINE ????, What engine ?
Why a Start/Stop button at all?
If anyone buys one tell them that Tom send you 😉
🥂
O .. M .. G .. :)
Yeah boi
😂 was a requirement a suit
Imagine rocking up in a singlet 😆
@@LudicrousFeeddog ate my suit 😅
Such a hard life...:-)
7 hours of bliss 😁🥂
Cmon Rolls Royce, what is this! i expect at least a crystal clear rego plate frame and cover for that money. disappointed.
😆 and a gold monocle
@@LudicrousFeed haha yep. a gold Monocle, with built in Heads up display! or a smoking jacket.
Tbh Chinese cars r like this at 5% of the price
Haha yeah I suppose when you break it all down it only needs to get you from A to B
So whats so good about this one? It looks ugly
