1976 Rolls Royce Silver Shadow on 2040-cars
Gladwyne, Pennsylvania, United States
|
This auction is for a 1976 Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow I. The car is finished in two-tone paint and has a tan leather interior with dark brown piping. The car starts easily, runs well and rides as a Rolls-Royce should. The car comes with a complete maintenance history from 2004 through 2012 and has been owned since 1985. The car has always been garaged and has a clear Pennsylvania title. Rolls Royce spent 11 years perfecting the design of the Silver Shadow. First launched in 1965, the Silver Shadow included many new features and luxury enhancements. The transmission, seats, windows, aerial, and climate control were now electrically operated and the suspension was self-leveling. The Silver Shadow was also the first Rolls Royce to feature monocoque construction. Having rolled over this example bears and odometer
reading of 3,278 miles meaning the car has traveled 103,278 miles. The car is taken out for short exercise rides weekly. This
Silver Shadow is a driver quality car and is not without some flaws. The
interior wood finish is what one would expect of a car of this age, however
there are a few spots - most notably the driver’s side door that needs
refinishing. The power windows operate slowly and the driver’s side window has
stalled short of closing in the past. There is a small tear in the driver side
door upholstery; a small burn on the right rear side (not on the seat surface
itself) of the seat (closest to the door) and a small burn on the right side interior
door armrest panel by the ashtray. The body has some small scratches, a tiny dent on the
front passenger door and two deeper scratches (one on driver’s side rear and
one on the rear). The car has a battery tender installed to keep the battery
fresh. |

Rolls-Royce celebrates Maharajas with special Phantom DHC
Fri, 14 Nov 2014A century ago, the princes and maharajas of India shared a relationship with Rolls-Royce that spanned five decades and saw the nobility on the subcontinent commissioning over 840 unique vehicles from the stoic marque. It's that golden age that Rolls-Royce celebrates with the debut of this one-of-a-kind luxury cabriolet.
Based on the Phantom Drophead Coupe, this unique Maharaja edition is distinguished by such special touches as Carrara White paint embellished with a peacock motif, emerald green coachline, a deep green top (hood in UK terminology), light creme leather interior with green accents, marquetry inlays and custom seashell embroidery.
Said to be two years in the making by the Rolls-Royce Bespoke division, this one-off Phantom DHC was unveiled not in India, but in Dubai, where a fascination with the Golden Age of the Raja is evidently alive and well.
Rolls-Royce developing new convertible
Wed, 06 Aug 2014Rolls-Royce is not a company that makes a lot of different vehicles, but of the ones it does, it tends to offer several versions. That's how we end up with sedan, long-wheelbase, coupe and (in the former's case) convertible versions of the Phantom and Ghost. And now Goodwood has confirmed development of another model.
Although details in the press release below are few and far between, it does promise to "deliver effortless, open-top touring... with an engaging and exhilarating driving experience." CEO Torsten Müller-Ötvös added: "We are currently developing an exciting and thoroughly contemporary interpretation of a pinnacle drophead tourer which will introduce even more discerning men and women to Rolls-Royce ownership."
What that tells us is that the new model - set to reach showrooms "by mid-2016" - will be a convertible that's exciting to drive and more youthful than the Phantom Drophead Coupe. In other words, and in all likelihood, we're looking at the convertible version of the Ghost-based Wraith fastback (like the one we recently spotted undergoing testing, pictured above). Expect it, then, to carry the same 6.6-liter twin-turbo V12, but with the added rush of wind in your hair.
Rolls-Royce Phantom Metropolitan Collection wafts into the annals of exclusivity
Fri, 03 Oct 2014Limited-edition, hand-built cars are kind of a bizarre thing. On the one hand, people pay umpteen amounts of money for bespoke cars, with the manufacturer adding that iconic descriptor to all its press materials, but then the company goes and produces 20 of the exact same car and sells them as a "special edition." It seems kind of contradictory.
Rolls-Royce must not see it that way, though, as it has just unveiled one of 20 Metropolitan Collection Phantom sedans at the 2014 Paris Motor Show. As the latest member of the brand's Bespoke Collection, the Metropolitan joins the Phantom Drophead Coupe Waterspeed Collection, the Pinnacle Travel and the Ghawwass Edition.
According to Rolls-Royce, the Metropolitan Collection pays "homage to the world's great metropolises" by way of the company's well known craftsmen. The veneers, particularly on the second row picnic table, get extensive attention, with just the table using 500 individual pieces of wood.
