1987 Rolls-royce Silver-spur Just 2100 Mi Per Year Original California Classic on 2040-cars
Fremont, California, United States
Up for bid is a very rare find a 1987 Rolls- Royce Silver- Spur finished in Acrylic White which a senior Peninsula couple first took delivery of at Martin Swig's Autobritania in San Francisco on 12/31/86. The MSPR on this car 27 years ago was $121,000 and from 1980 to 1989 only 6238 of these hand built motorcars were built In the late 1980's this 1987 Rolls-Royce Silver Spur was the ultimate in motoring luxury and excess. Bigger than just about anything else on the road and powered by Rolls' superlative V8 it was the last of hand built icons from Crewe Chesire England that built the automotive industry in the early years. The special long-wheelbase Silver Spur was the top of the line what is unquestionably the top of the line automobile manufacture. Stretching nearly 20 feet long it's understated yet imposing. Fit and finish are of course exemplary despite it being 27 years old and nothing in the automotive world feels like one of these big heavily insulated doors snapping closed. All automotive paint is shiny but the deep hand rubbed finish on this one is something else entirely as if it was conjured out of thin air right onto the surface. This automobile show's little sign of age and for a car that originally cost the equivalent of a quarter million bucks you definitely got your money's worth on the paint job. Then there's the chrome which is deep and rich that it almost feels cold to the touch and nothing clears traffic like that big Rolls-Royce grille and Sprit of Estsy hood ornament. "Impressive" isn't an impressive enough word for what this car is . You know where a lot of the money went when you climb inside. The seats feel like nothing you've experienced at once soft and supportive and wrapped in fragrant leather hides that were bred for royalty. There's a bit of wear on the driver's seat but the rest of the buttery-soft leather is still fit for show. Dark Wilton Wool carpets are insanely plush and yes that's real wood on the dash and door panels hand crafted by a guy who's been doing it his entire life. It received all the proper accoutrements for the late 80's including A/C power windows and locks and finger tip-light power steering. And as a long-wheelbase model rear seat space rivals a New York apartment complete with foot rest and drop down tray tables. The big 6.75 liter V8 pulls like a steam locomotive and delivers awesome smoothness. Bosch fuel injection makes it reliable too. GM supplied the TH400 3-speed automatic gearbox and the full independent suspension rides like a hovercraft over broken pavement. Even the 4 wheel disc brakes are race car sized and deliver impressive performance that's never abrupt. For the price of a pre owned Kia Optima you could be driving this incredible Rolls-Royce. Don't be afraid of the maintenance and just imagine what the neighbors will think when they see you driving this to work every day or take ultimate UBER entrepreneurship to the next level. This is a unique opportunity to have a world class motorcar for an affordable price.

Third Rolls-Royce Wraith teaser looks inward
Wed, 20 Feb 2013After shadowy images of the 2014 Rolls-Royce Wraith in profile and of the car's rump, the slow striptease of this hyper-luxury coupe finally starts to show us what the inside of the car will look like. We'll get our up-close look at the 2014 Wraith at the Geneva Motor Show on March 5th, but to tide us over until then, Rolls-Royce has provided a pair of images showing just some of the details that will be present inside.
Promising the interior of an "ultra-luxury yacht," the Wraith will get plenty of soft leather and real wood paneling, and as we suspected, this car will share a lot of interior bits with its sedan counterpart, the Rolls-Royce Ghost. We can somewhat see this from the second image provided showing the placement of the clock and the air vents that look almost identical to what can be seen currently on the Ghost. On the Wraith, though, the clock's hands feature "Blood Orange" tips, which not only contrast the high-gloss, piano black finish of this instrument panel but also is designed to pay homage to the aviation side of Rolls-Royce.
Rolls-Royce Ghost Series II represents a host of subtle tweaks
Tue, 04 Mar 2014It's not every day that an automaker admits in its own words that a new generation of one of its models is a "subtle redesign," but that's exactly how Rolls-Royce is describing the changes made to its Ghost Series II. Most of the bodywork has seen very light resculpting, including what the brand is calling a tapered "wake channel" that starts just behind the beloved Spirit of Ecstacy's wings evoking "the sight of a jet's vapour trail" and "hinting at the car's dynamism."
So much does Rolls-Royce want to emphasize the Ghost Series II's so-called dynamism that it uses the descriptor a total of eight times in the press release that you're welcome to read below. Looking past that all-too-current buzzword, what we see here is clearly a Rolls-Royce, clearly an ultra-luxury sedan and clearly desirable.
Rest assured, prospective buyers will see all the latest technology inside the new Ghost's interior, including a 10.25-inch high-definition screen and a Spirit of Ecstacy Rotary Controller so as not to "leave unsightly fingerprints at driver and passenger eye level." Of course, plenty of customization is available for the most discerning of buyers, and two new wood veneer options are available - Paldao and Walnut Burr Crossband.
Ghost Coupe to be fastest Rolls-Royce ever
Sun, 05 Aug 2012Autocar has snapped spy shots of a Rolls-Royce Ghost Coupe, and judging from proportions the car will be so long in front and raked in back that it would make Dick Tracy whistle. We'll get the true story on that at next year's Geneva Motor Show, which is when Autocar says it's due to be revealed, but what's less in question is this: with a 6.6-liter, 600-horsepower V12 and a tauter ride it will be the fastest Rolls-Royce ever.
Weight is estimated to drop by 200 kg compared to its sedan sibling, and its roofline to drop by up to nearly three inches. If the horsepower numbers are correct the shorter and lighter Ghost coupe, with a 69-hp bump over the sedan, will assuredly deliver the "considerably brisker" acceleration promised. Helping matters will be the lowered chassis, larger tires, "mildly sports-orientated" brakes and a suspension tuned to be more aggressive but delivering just as much waftability.
Although it's being called the Ghost Coupe for now, insiders have suggested to the magazine that that it will get its own, bespoke, name, with pricing above the standard sedan but below the extended-wheelbase sedan.
