The three-by-three configuration is affectionately known as a:"six-pack" due to its shape resembling a six-pack of beer.
The character of Auric Goldfuinger in the book/movie "Goldfinger" has a Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost "six-pack"
I have removed these images because they add nothing which might further illustrate the subject of the article. Particularly unwelcome because of the most ugly and unusual unidentifiable coachwork. Why was this (clearly brand new) body built, to what purpose? Eddaido ( talk) 00:05, 10 April 2016 (UTC)
This cloudy unremarkable photograph of just another car would be better displayed on the articles concerning its reputed passengers. Eddaido ( talk) 00:05, 10 April 2016 (UTC)
There are currently 167 images of Silver Ghosts in Wikimedia so there is plenty of choice. Eddaido ( talk) 01:02, 10 April 2016 (UTC)
Eddaido, plz stop deleting, That picture is there since long. If a picture is "unremarkable" in your opinion, it doesn't mean that whole community think like you, and agree to you, please do constructive edits, add something good to this page, I have reverted your edit again, if you do again, I would be left with no option but to complain the Administrator, Regards Aftab Banoori ( Talk) 13:41, 11 April 2016 (UTC)
It's a poor picture because the car, which is after all the subject of the article, is largely blocked by the person standing in the way. Without the person the photo would be just about acceptable although unremarkable and there are better ones in Commons. Malcolma ( talk) 18:57, 11 April 2016 (UTC)
Yes, it's a poor picture. Aquegg ( talk) 19:06, 11 April 2016 (UTC)
Agree. It is a poor picture. Ghostieguide ( talk) 05:50, 15 April 2016 (UTC)
What on earth is a "propeller shaft" (near end of History) doing on an automobile (as opposed to a boat)? I presume it's the drive shaft. Is this the appropriate contemporary British usage? Assuming it is, I won't change it, but will be WP:bold and put in a wikilink for those as confused as I. Correct me if I'm wrong. -- D Anthony Patriarche ( talk) 12:16, 30 May 2019 (UTC)
A recent auction cash sale trumps an earlier handwave at an”insurance valuation”, unless the difference is slight enough that inflation would easily cover it. So-called “insurance valuations” are often fictive “agreed values” rather than actual appraisal, and also sometimes reflect business interests outside of the insured item’s intrinsic value.

What’s telling is how few experts are willing to adress the “ Most valuable” question, probably because they -are- experts and realize what a can of worms it is, and how quickly today’s answer can become yesterday’s news. Qwirkle ( talk) 20:20, 7 March 2020 (UTC)
@ Qwirkle: I'm not sure what a Qwirkle handwave means but I have replaced the quotation from the citation. Why keep removing it. The statement is perfectly correct. Maybe you could have a go at explaining your reversions. Eddaido ( talk) 03:34, 15 July 2020 (UTC)
