A YouTuber and car collector spent a good chunk of cash to buy Marcus Rashford’s Rolls-Royce and to rebuild it.
The car had been damaged in an accident, but this guy was able to fix it by himself, effectively getting a Mansory Rolls-Royce for about half the price.
But then Mansory got wind of what was going on and wanted the car back.
Probably not for the reason you think, though.

What happened to Marcus Rashford’s Rolls-Royce
YouTuber Mat Armstrong bought Marcus Rashford’s Rolls-Royce a few months ago, and then six figures to fix it.
Once he factored in the cost of the car and repairs, he still spent only about half what Rashford paid for it.
Rashford had originally bought the car for around $800,000.
Armstrong invested $240,000+ to buy the car, and then he needed to fork out an additional 183,000+ to fix it.
That works out at around $420,000, which is less than half what it originally cost Rashford to buy it.
Here’s why Mansory wanted it back
Mansory got in touch with Armstrong while he was doing a grand tour of Europe with the Phantom along with two friends.
He was relatively close to Germany, which is where Mansory is based, and so the company’s founder asked him to stop by.
In short, Mansory jokingly said Armstrong had done a bad job and wanted to apply a few finishing touches.
The car didn’t need a lot of work, and they only did a few things to it, including recalibrating the suspension and giving it new wheels.
But that was it, and after that, Armstrong was able to resume his road trip across the European continent.
