Color Check: Rolls-Royce Cullinan Series II in Salamanca Blue

Rolls-Royce recently dropped basic color and specification from the Cullinan Series II and Black Badge Cullinan Series II global media drive held in Ibiza back in June. Alas, we weren’t on that drive, but we are able to share the basic color information in order to help inspire those ordering Rolls-Royces of their own, or considering Rolls-Royce hues in build specifications from other manufacturers.

We’ve been adding each car in our Color Check over the last few weeks. Next up is this Rolls-Royce Black Badge Cullinan Series II christened ‘Pioneer’. It’s finished in Salamanca Blue (salamancablue; pearl metallic uni; R84; Rolls-Royce). According to the Audrain Auto Museum, Salamanca Blue is named after the 1913 winner of the Spanish Grand Prix, Marques Don Carlos de Salamanca. Don Carlos Salamanca was a friend of Sir Henry Royce and the importer of Rolls-Royce into Spain at that time.

Rolls-Royce didn’t detail the rest of the spec on ‘Pioneer’, but its distinctive black and white interior is definitely worth noting.
