Halcyon Rolls-Royce Corniche Begins Arabian Grand Tour at Bahrain Concours

06 Nov 2025
  • What makes Halcyon’s Highland Heather Rolls-Royce remaster so special?
  • How does Halcyon redefine classic Rolls-Royce models through remastering?

Halcyon will commence its Grand Tour of the Arabian Peninsula with the international debut of its first remastered and electrified Rolls-Royce Corniche, the Highland Heather commission, at the Royal Bahrain Concours, from the 7th-8th November 2025. It will be the first time Halcyon has exhibited its in-house design study and foundational commission outside of the UK. The Grand Tour will be predominantly comprised of private viewings, with the addition of public exhibitions and select iconic drives across Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE.

Highland Heather: A Tribute to Heritage and Craft

Highland Heather marks the debut of Halcyon’s Rolls-Royce remastering services, drawing its name and inspiration from the serene beauty of Scotland’s moors and the pioneering legacy of Rolls-Royce’s 1907 Scottish reliability trials. It is the first of 60 bespoke one-of-one commissions, each to be hand-built in Surrey, England. Following its recent debut, Halcyon’s Grand Tour of the Arabian Peninsula will connect with collectors, enthusiasts, and key media, reflecting the region’s deep appreciation for coachbuilt vehicles as expressions of individuality. Rolls-Royce’s enduring relationship with the Gulf—from Lawrence of Arabia’s armoured Silver Ghosts to the Emirati Phantom V—further underscores the carmaker’s historic bond with the region. Halcyon CEO Matthew Pearson shared his excitement for launching the Grand Tour at the Royal Bahrain Concours, highlighting the remastered Corniche as a “piece of driving art” that unites passion, precision, and timeless design.

Halcyon’s remastering programme, limited to just 60 commissions, combines heritage craftsmanship with modern engineering through a meticulous 12-month build process. Each vehicle undergoes over 2,000 hours of restoration, blending traditional coachbuilding with cutting-edge innovation. Powered by an in-house 800V electric drivetrain delivering 500 horsepower, each remaster delivers whisper-quiet performance and modern reliability while preserving the analogue soul of the originals. Beginning with the Corniche and Silver Shadow, every build reflects Henry Royce’s philosophy to “take the best that exists and make it better.” Highland Heather, the first completed commission, showcases this ethos with its Purple Moorland finish and handcrafted interior inspired by Scottish rivers and landscapes. This striking masterpiece will be unveiled at the Royal Bahrain Concours on November 7–8, 2025.
