1986 Rolls Royce Corniche Ii on 2040-cars
Downers Grove, Illinois, United States
|
Up for sale is a 1986 Rolls Royce Corniche II Convertible. This was part of a large estate collection and is being offered at the lowest reserve ever for a Corniche II. It was brought out of storage and sent over to Master Rolls in Oak Lawn, IL. Martin the master technician over there went through the car and fixed/serviced/replaced everything it could ever need. The total bill was $11,000 in repairs: Resealed both brake pumps Major Tune Up Oil Change Complete Brake job (rotors, pads, mineral oil) Fuel Filter Air Filter New Battery Fuel line service Rear struts replaced, sealed, oil. Flush brake system Top off all fluids Seals replaced Power Steering replaced I am sure I am missing a few things but those were major items. It now runs, starts, drives, and stops as if it were new. AC even works. All the electronics work. Odometer did just stop working for some reason. I can't figure out why, maybe it will start working again. The car is not driven so the mileage is right around 52,000. Tires look new. Mechanically needs nothing to enjoy. The Corniche spent most of its life in California. It was purchased roughly 10 years ago by the owner now. Comes with the complete manual and documents. I have the receipts for the $11,000 in work as well. That work was just completed yesterday. Condition of the exterior of the car as you can see looks good in the pictures. The paint is white but, underneath the clear coat it is all spider webbed/cracked. I have no idea how something like this could have happened. It is tough to notice unless you get very close and look. It is very smooth to touch. The red convertible top does have a rip at the bottom driver side corner. Nothing to serious but not perfect. Rims are in great shape no issues. Like I said tires are in great condition. Chrome grill is perfect. The rear bumper has wear on it, the chrome piece has pealed off in a spot. There is are long scratch at the bottom which is pictured. Interior condition is light tan leather with no rips but shows wear as a almost 30 year old car would. Driver side is the worse as to be accepted. Wood is very nice and bright no wear there. Carpet is all red and has no rips and looks very nice. It has one of the thick lambs wool driver side floor mats. Radio works, windows all work, top goes up and down on its own. Heat and AC both work. Power seats work. Has the Nardi signed steering wheel option. Feel free to ask any questions. I am not a dealer so I don't have a shipping company but I can work with anyone's company of choice for shipping out of state or country. $1,000 deposit due within 48 hours. Final payment due within a week. |

Rolls-Royce teases Wraith debut in Geneva
Fri, 18 Jan 2013Rolls-Royce is headed to the 2013 Geneva Motor Show with a new addition to its lineup: the Wraith. The ultra-luxury automaker says it plans to start deliveries by the fourth quarter of this year, though details are scarce at the moment. The automaker has contented itself with saying the Wraith will the "most dynamic, powerful and beautiful Rolls-Royce in the company's history." We hear it will be the most modest, too.
Rolls-Royce first began using the Wraith nameplate in 1938. The original car used a tweaked version of the 4.3-liter inline six-cylinder found in the company's 25/30, but its real claim to fame came from the fact that it boasted speed-variable hydraulic dampers. Capable of reaching speeds of up to 85 miles per hour, Rolls-Royce only built 492 examples of the vehicle's chassis.
You can look for the new Wraith to bow at the Geneva Motor Show in March. In the interim, check out the shockingly bare press release below and get ready for a spate of teasers to follow.
Could Rolls-Royce expand business with new models?
Mon, 12 Aug 2013Rolls-Royce may be forced to expand its lineup beyond the über-luxury cars gobbled up by the ultra-wealthy jetset, as new competition in the form of the rumored, high-end Mercedes-Benz S-Class could take a slice of the luxury pie from the BMW-owned manufacturer.
Automotive News reports that this, along with the combination of BMW's unwillingness to move above the price-point set by the 7-Series and Bentley's expansion into the SUV realm, could force Rolls-Royce's hand. AN is arguing that, as unrealistic as it might sound, Rolls could develop a four-door crossover or shooting brake, but that any such plans are in the earliest of stages.
In the near term, the smallest Rolls-Royce, the Ghost, will get a refresh in 2014, while the sporty Wraith fastback will spawn a convertible variant by 2015. The big boy of the Rolls-Royce range, meanwhile, is due for a far more comprehensive re-do. The Phantom is expected to share a platform with the next-generation 7-Series in 2016. Advanced materials are expected to feature heavily, as Rolls-Royce seeks to trim body fat and improve fuel economy without compromising the performance or comfort expected of the brands' flagship model.
Rolls-Royce releases another shadowy look at new Wraith
Tue, 12 Feb 2013Rolls-Royce has dropped a third teaser for its upcoming coupe that we'll be seeing in a few weeks at the Geneva Motor Show. A couple of weeks ago, we saw the 2014 Rolls-Royce Wraith in a shadowy profile shot, and now we're getting an (admittedly limited) idea of what the rear of the car will look like.
As suggested by a recent set of spy shots, the 2014 Wraith should have a rear-end styling very similar - if not identical - to the Rolls-Royce Ghost, which this car is a coupe version of. In typical Rolls-Royce fashion, the British automaker promises that this new model will deliver plenty of power, style and drama, though it's declining to get more specific about what that power is (other than to say it will be "more than ample"). We have no indication that the engine won't be the 563-horsepower, 6.6-liter V8 that's in the Ghost, but we'll have to wait until next month to find out for sure.
