Hello.... What you are looking at here today is an honest, rust free, southern Rolls Royce Silver Spirit in good condition. I own a large factory in the Atlanta area where we build handicapped vans. I also am a serious British car collector (primarily Jaguars). Once in a while someone trades in a car on one of our handicapped vans. This Rolls is a local car that has been loved and used by it's elderly owner until a couple years ago when it became hard for them to drive, so with teary eyes they said, "goodbye" to their beloved 1984 Rolls Royce Silver Spirit. We allowed him $15,000 on trade for this car. Even at that it was hard for them to let go. This car has been maintained properly by a local British mechanic that I know. This car starts and runs great... Both brake pressure lights go out soon after car starts....Yes, I said it.. The low pressure lights actually go out. This means something to anyone who knows these cars. The height correctors work properly and all electric windows and things work as they should. The AC blows cold and car has a nice upgraded stereo with CD changer in it and power antennae works properly. This car has NEVER seen salt and has not been wrecked. It has just had a new rear window gasket installed and I do have the rear stainless trim piece which is excellent. I mention all these details because a Rolls that has done nothing but sit can be a money pit. This car has been used and cared for by someone who understands them so it is light years ahead of a car that has 16 idiots and no nothing car mechanics messing it up. I have had several of these cars over the years and in fact my wife drove one just like this for nearly 5 years with good results. As I said, this is a Good, Honest, car with many many miles left on it. Engine sounds sweet and trans shifts positively....Here's the thing....I've already got too many cars and my sons who help run our business don't want me taking up anymore space, soooo This car WILL BE SOLD. It is going at no reserve.....But, I will tell you now. Unless you have an ebay score of at least 5 and NO Negative feedback. (DO NOT BID ON THIS ONE) because I will cancel your bid immediately. I'm sorry to be so harsh but I am sick of wasting time with people who bid, then decide...Please do not bid unless you can follow thru. If someone wants to step up, the car can be bought for $7800. I did not put a buy it now price as people push those for fun and it stops your auction immediately. Look at my feedback history..I am a serious car-guy and this is a great value for somebody who wants an affordable Rolls that works. HAPPY BIDDING AND GOOD LUCK... Bob |

2014 Rolls-Royce Wraith is everything you need, everything you don't [w/videos]
Wed, 06 Mar 2013It's not often that we get to talk about a new Rolls-Royce, what with the fact that the company's current model line is basically made up of two vehicles. But that all changes here at the 2013 Geneva Motor Show, with the introduction of what might be the most emotional Roller of modern times, the Wraith.
The new two-door Rolls is effectively a Ghost coupe, and it stands to reason that this is Royce's answer to the Bentley Continental GT, albeit at a higher price point. Much higher, actually - the 245,000-euro - $320k USD - price of entry for the Wraith is about $100,000 more than a Continental GT Speed coupe. Woof. And to our eyes, all that extra money isn't buying you much in the looks department, as the collective opinion of the Autoblog editors on-site in Geneva is that it's more imposing than elegant.
But the Wraith will no doubt be a special, exclusive, impressive machine for anyone who plunks down that sort of cash. For starters, it's powered by a V12 that puts out an impressive 624 horsepower and 590 pound-feet of torque mated to an eight-speed ZF "Satellite Aided" transmission. This nifty cog-swapper actually works with GPS to not only pre-select the right gear for the portion of road you're on, but for the next portion of you'll be driving on, as well. That, friends, is cool.
Six luxury-car features I'm ashamed to admit I love
Thu, 16 Oct 2014A hot compress felt wonderful on my sore back. The methodical kneading of my shoulder blades loosened the knots that formed over several hours of driving. The Swedish-style pulses firing into my lumbar region released more tension.
I wasn't getting a much-needed massage following a recent road trip. I was getting it during the road trip.
I grew up riding in the back seat of a 1976 Chevy Nova. But once you use these lux features, it's easy to go soft.
Rolls-Royce to reach 4,000 units this year
Tue, 30 Sep 2014Rolls-Royce is, by nature, an exclusive auto marque, but it has been steadily increasing its sales to the point that it could be looking at 4,000 units by the end of this year, setting a new record for the German-owned British automaker.
You don't even need to go back a decade to find Rolls-Royce sales hovering around the 1,000-unit mark. But that was when Goodwood only offered the Phantom saloon. The subsequent addition of the Phantom DHC and Phantom Coupe helped expand its portfolio, enlarged even further by the addition of the Ghost in 2010, by which time total sales were reaching 3,000 units.
The Spirit of Ecstasy marque has been hovering around the 3,500 mark ever since, but with the Wraith now in the mix and its reach extending into growing markets around the world, Autocar reports that global sales could top 4,000 units this year. (Of course that pales in comparison to one-time sister brand Bentley, which topped 10,000 deliveries last year, but Rolls-Royce typically competes at a higher price bracket.)
