Where is John Lennon’s Rolls Royce?

My partner’s a huge Beatles fan and a big motorhead so I was hoping to maybe schedule a trip to visit one of the Beatles members’ iconic cars. Where is John Lennon’s Rolls Royce currently located?

What a sweet partner you are to schedule such a thoughtful trip! John Lennon’s Rolls-Royce is currently owned by the Royal BC Museum in Victoria, British Columbia, where it is occasionally displayed in the lobby—usually in the winter.
To help you further impress your partner with some Beatles motorhead knowledge, here are a few fun facts about that psychedelic 1965 Rolls-Royce Phantom V Touring Limousine:
  • It is one of only 517 Rolls-Royce Phantom Vs produced—the Queen Mum and the late Queen Elizabeth II drove two of them
  • Lennon overhauled the vehicle with a 7-page list of customization requests, including a backseat that could fold into a double bed
  • The ornate paint job Lennon commissioned was fashioned after Romany caravans—it was so controversial that an offended old woman supposedly attacked the unconventional Rolls-Royce with an umbrella (according to Lennon)
  • It’s estimated that Lennon spent 11,000 pounds on the vehicle—about $240,000 today
  • Lennon couldn’t even drive when he purchased it—when he did finally get his license (at age 24) the Beatles were inspired to write “Ticket to Ride”
Though most of us don’t drive a $240,000 highly-customized Rolls-Royce around, it’s still important to protect the vehicles we do drive with quality
