About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

One of two James Young-bodied coupes. The paint is good other than one large chip on the passenger's door. The white parts of the tires are beginning to yellow. The front wheel covers are duller than the rears and have a few scratches. Elegant and very rare, but any restoration work was carried out many years ago and according to Gooding it will need further sorting before regular use.

Market commentary

The coachwork on this Phantom V is one of only two such built by James Young and it is a visual surprise, unexpectedly missing two rear doors on an otherwise capacious notchback design. It's a "double-take" car, and effectively, too. The condition and needed further service is an issue, but its distinctive design and luxury make it a sold value at this price.
