The Phantom II replaced the New Phantom in Rolls-Royce's offerings in 1929.

It shared the 7.7 L (7668 cc/467 in³) pushrod-OHV straight-6 engine from its predecessor, being the last large six-cylinder Rolls. The engine was unitary with a 4-speed manual transmission. Synchromesh was added on gears 3 and 4 in 1932 and on gear 2 in 1935.

Semi-elliptical springs suspended the front and, in a change from its predecessor, the rear. 4-wheel servo-assisted brakes were also specified.

278 lighter Continental Phantom II's were also produced, including 125 left-hand drive versions.

This car appears in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade and is used as a bribe by the Nazis in order to enter the Republic of Hatay.
