Currently reading: WATCH: Rolls-Royce Ghost Black Badge - The Roller that handles

Watch our video as put a Rolls-Royce Ghost Black Badge through its paces - a car for the owner, not the chauffeur?

This is the £242,945 Rolls-Royce Ghost Black Badge, a Rolls-Royce with some extra edge.

It’s more subversive, more dynamic car than a traditional Rolls but, the company says, still one that retains the Ghost’s core values of comfort and absolute luxury.

The Black Badge uses a ‘high power’ version of Rolls-Royce’s 6.75-litre twin-turbocharged V12 making 692bhp (600PS) and 664lb ft (900Nm) which, in our full road test, was enough to propel the Black Badge Ghost to 60mph in 4.5sec and to a standing quarter mile in just 12.7sec at 114.6mph.

But numbers are of minor interest when it comes to Rolls-Royces. These cars are about how they feel. So how does the most dynamically adept car the company makes go down the road? Join Road test editor Matt Saunders as he finds out by clicking on the video above.
