I thought I seen it all, but I guess not!

Full name of the car is Rolls-Royce Silver Wraith that was coachbuild by Vignale in 1954.

There is a toilet under the rear seat cushion, hilarious! Is that the meaning of the ultimate luxury? Fully equipped? Rich guy don't want to wait for anything? Pull up the cushion and go? LOL

There is a phone in the car. Did cellular technology exist back then, or was it maybe a radio unit instead?

Also note that the toilet was used "mostly" to keep champagne chilled. That means it was actually also used for human waste. And champagne. Nice.

"Under the back seat was a toilet that was mostly used to keep the champaign chilled."

Yeah, mostly. I wonder what it was used for in those other occasions. Not so sure about chilling, but it surely makes the champaign that much more flavorful.

I wonder if the toilet actually flushes? Ejects the stuff out the back of the car? Would be a whole new way to participate in road rage...
