CarTell take

We haven't driven the Cullinan yet. On paper, confirm bespoke commissioning timing with the dealer, lead times can stretch. Mansory and other coachbuilders are aftermarket and not warranted by Rolls-Royce Motor Cars. Test the Black Badge throttle map versus the standard car before deciding.

Why consider it

  • Only V12 SUV currently in production, 6.75L twin-turbo flagship engine.
  • Cabin silence is genuinely a class above Bentley and Mercedes, via 18 active-noise-cancelling speakers, double-glazed glass, 100 kg of acoustic insulation, and the Flagbearer stereo camera air suspension.
  • The Recreation Module fold-out picnic suite has no rival equivalent.

What to know

  • From $777,000 plus on-roads, bespoke commissions push past $1m.
  • 4-year warranty with paid extensions and no service inclusion as standard.
  • 2.7-tonne kerb weight is felt in tight Sydney parking.

Who it suits

Garage halo collectors wanting the only V12 SUV currently in production, chauffeur clients chasing genuinely class-leading cabin silence, Black Badge buyers who drive themselves and want the sharper drivetrain, and bespoke commissioners using the full configuration ceiling.
