Owner Ditches £300k Rolls Royce After Breakdown on Busy A27 in Chichester

Friday 30th June 2017 – A £300,000 Rolls Royce Ghost caused a major traffic headache on the A27 in Chichester, just as the Goodwood Festival of Speed kicked off.

Luxury Car Breaks Down Amid Festival Frenzy

The sleek Rolls Royce broke down on the bustling A27, leaving drivers crawling in a frustrating queue. Rather than waiting, the owner reportedly abandoned the prized motor and headed straight to the festival, leaving recovery crews to deal with the costly mess.

Rescue teams had to pause and consult the manual to figure out how to load the ultra-expensive Ghost onto the tow truck. Despite the delay, stranded motorists couldn’t help but chuckle at the slow-motion roll-on, roll-off recovery operation.
