Rolls-Royce Cullinan Series II Black Badge gets the wide-body treatment
It was only a matter of time before the aftermarket got its hands on the Rolls-Royce Cullinan Series II, the face-lifted version of Rolls' SUV, and it appears that trend is in full swing. Los Angeles-based RDB LA recently unveiled a Cullinan Series II Black Badge with a bit more street presence, courtesy of a wide-body kit from 1016 Industries. This is actually the second Cullinan Series II to roll out (no pun intended) of RDB with one of these body kits, which sell for up to $100,000. The first, unveiled just month, had 26-inch RDB wheels and a body painted black. This one retains black wheels, but they're contrasted by Tempest Grey paint. It also takes things a bit further with thin LED daytime running lights mounted in the lower part of the front bumper. Modifying an expensive car will likely always be controversial, but Rolls-Royce customers have plenty of cash and appetite for personalization, as evidenced by the automaker's massive catalog of paint and trim options. And it's more likely than not that those customers will be buying a Cullinan, which become Rolls' bestselling model after debuting in 2018. The Cullinan Series II launched in 2024 as a mid-cycle refresh, although changes were small, LED jowls on the outside and a more contemporary dashboard screen arrangement inside being the highlights. Also offered on the pre-refresh Cullinan, the Black Badge spec adds darkened trim. Power comes from a twin-turbocharged 6.7-liter V12-producing 591 horsepower and 664 pound-feet of torque in Black Badge models-connected to an eight-speed automatic transmission and all-wheel drive.

This British multinational aerospace and defence company is known for its world-class aero‑engines, marine propulsion systems, and power-generation technology.

The price range of this luxurious vehicle starts from approximately Rs 7 crore. But do you know who owns the most expensive Rolls-Royce in India? Well, he is none other than the son of Samprada Singh — the owner of Alkem Pharmaceutical Company, one of the top pharmaceutical companies in the world.

King Charles III receives 'very expensive' ultra-luxury Rolls-Royce Cullinan Series II from King of Bahrain, the same model favoured by A-List celebrities
What do King Charles and Kylie Jenner have in common? They're both the very happy owners of near-million-dollar Rolls-Royces. The 76-year-old monarch was gifted a Rolls-Royce Cullinan Series II, worth a cool $895,000 plus on-road costs (according to The Australian Financial Review) by King Hamad bin Isa al-Khalifa of Bahrain, just before his coronation on May 6, 2023. The flashy SUV, favoured by A-List celebrities such as Kylie Jenner and Mike Tyson, was revealed in a newly released record of official gifts published by Buckingham Palace. The Cullinan Series II, which runs on both petrol and biofuel, is now part of the royal fleet and is expected to be used for official duties, though it hasn't yet been spotted in public with any royals aboard. In an appearance on The Royal Report, Sky News contributor Louise Roberts described the gift as "very interesting". "It's a gigantic vehicle, very, very expensive as well," Roberts said, noting the model is "a favourite of the Kardashians". An official coronation gift list released by Buckingham Palace reveals the lavish SUV wasn't the only offering from the Bahraini King, who also gave Charles a decorative clock. Other gifts received by the King for his May 2023 coronation span the globe and range from deeply symbolic to historically significant. Amazonian Indigenous Leaders presented him with a feather crown, two beaded chest pieces, carved staffs, and a tobacco bowl and inhaler. From New Zealand, Kiingi Tuheitia sent a Greenstone Mere carved specially for the coronation. Australia contributed with a national gift towards the conservation of the critically endangered Western Ground Parrot. US President Joe Biden and First Lady Jill Biden gave the King a leather folder containing correspondence between Queen Elizabeth II and President Eisenhower, along with a framed photo of Marine One landing at Windsor. And before his untimely death in April, Pope Francis presented King Charles with a relic believed to be a piece of the True Cross, which has been incorporated into the Cross of Wales. According to the Palace's gift policy, official gifts, defined as those received in the course of royal duties or from individuals not personally known to the royals, become part of the Royal Collection and are not considered private property. These items cannot be sold or traded but may be used or displayed publicly. By contrast, personal gifts are treated like any other private inheritance and are subject to regular tax rules.

See the lavish gifts the British royals have received since 2020, including a $450,000 Rolls-Royce and a signed 'Charles 3' soccer shirt from Paris Saint-Germain
Buckingham Palace has published lists of the gifts the royal family received between 2020 and 2023. Among the most eye-catching gifts was a luxury Rolls-Royce from the King of Bahrain. King Charles III also received a "Charles 3" soccer shirt signed by players from Paris Saint-Germain FC. Buckingham Palace has published lists of gifts received by the royal family between 2020 and 2023. The official register, which was published on Friday, shows the royals have received some particularly expensive gifts over the last few years. One of the standout presents — a Rolls-Royce car from the King of Bahrain, Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa — was gifted to King Charles III for his coronation in 2023. The Rolls-Royce Cullinan Series II costs around $450,000, according to Autotrader, and it will reportedly be used for official occasions. The luxury vehicle, along with all the other gifts, is not considered to be personal property and cannot be sold or exchanged. The royals also do not pay tax on official gifts. Other eye-catching gifts presented to Charles in 2023 included a leather folder from former President Joe Biden containing letters between the late Queen Elizabeth II and former President Dwight Eisenhower inviting him to the UK, a "Charles 3" soccer shirt signed by players from the French Ligue 1 team Paris Saint-Germain, and a ceremonial sword from the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. Elsewhere, the lists showed that in the final years before her death in 2022, the late Queen Elizabeth was gifted dog jackets from the Royal Australian Air Force, a Cedar of Lebanon tree from the late Pope Francis, and an engraved Tiffany sterling silver box from Biden. You can check out the full lists for 2020, 2021, 2022, and 2023 here. Prince Harry and Meghan Markle do not appear on the lists, having stepped back from their duties as working royals in 2020. The publication of the lists comes after it was reported last year that the royals had failed to publish details of official gifts for the past four years. Guidelines have been in place governing the royals' acceptance and use of gifts since 1995. Read the original article on Business Insider
