1987 Rolls Royce Silver Spur Acrylic White With Burr Walnut Woodworking on 2040-cars
|
Famous for sophistication and durability, this spectacular sedan features an acrylic white exterior with a tan hardtop vinyl roof. As a 1987 model, it is the first year that the Rolls Royce Silver Spur prominently displayed the now famous Spirit of Ecstasy hood ornament supported by the one-piece air-dam. The interior features tan butter leather surrounded by magnificent burr walnut woodwork throughout, including door panels, veneer picnic trays in backseat, instrument panel with cross-banding and boxwood inlay and a two-toned steering wheel. The engine boasts a 220-hp, 6.75-liter aluminum V-8 with Bosch fuel injection and anti-lock brakes on an extended wheel base, chrome wheels and has only 71,535 original miles. With only 1600 of the 1987 Silver Spur produced, this car comes with nearly every conceivable option and is considered one of the best examples of this final series of Rolls Royce. Rolls Royce no longer exists as it had for nearly 100 years as it is now owned by BMW. The care and craftsmanship that went into building this motorcar, when Rolls Royce was truly building the world’s finest motorcar in Crewe, England are far superior to those they are mass-producing today! The vehicle was serviced at Brumos Classic Autowerks in Jacksonville, FL at 71,200 miles. All four tires are brand new with less than 200 miles driven on them. Vehicle has not been smoked in. Vehicle was purchased at an estate sale and is located in Florida. Buyer responsible for pickup or shipping arrangement and costs as well as any federal, state or local fees including tax, title and license as these are not included in the selling price of the vehicle. Will accept payment through Paypal, money order, cashier's check or loan proceed check. VIN# SCAZN02AXHCC20826 |

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.
Aeroboat packs 1,100 seahorses of Rolls-Royce Merlin V12 power
Wed, 21 May 2014We don't typically cover boats here - this is, after all, Autoblog and not Aquablog - but every so often something comes along that makes us want to dip our toes in the water, whether it's a Jaguar-designed speedboat, a Gulf-liveried megayacht or a Lamborghini-powered Riva Aquarama. This is another one of those occasions.
Set to be unveiled at the Salute to Style show in July at The Hurlingham Club in London, the Aeroboat is a motor yacht that seems to blend retro and furutistic lines in equal measure that would make Jules Verne proud without going Steampunk. Inspired by the Spitfire fighter plane, the Aeroboat packs aircraft-inspired switchgear and shock-mounted seats into a long, sleek form. But what really has our interests piqued is what lies beneath the stylish decks.
Each of the dozen Aeroboats to be built will pack a reconditioned, marinized, fuel-injected Rolls-Royce Merlin V12 engine - the same 27-liter powerplant that propelled the Spitfire. With 1,100 horsepower on tap, it's expected to propel the Aeroboat up to a top speed between 75 and 95 knots, or 86-109 miles per hour by landlubber standards, which is pretty damn fast on the open water.
Neglected Rolls-Royce Phantom may be the saddest of all time
Fri, 30 May 2014Rolls-Royce prides itself on exemplifying the pinnacle of automotive elegance. The brand is synonymous with quality and luxury. However, in the end even a Rolls is still just a car, and if you don't keep it up, it's bound to fail. That deterioration can be seriously fun to watch, though.
This 2005 Rolls-Royce Phantom might now be one of the worst cars on the planet and only has a little over 95,000 miles on it. The video claims that the original owner in New Jersey didn't make payments on the car for three years but rented the sedan out to people and used it for a livery service. Now, it's repossessed and would probably cost more to fix than it's worth.
This Phantom has had a hard life. We don't want to spoil too many of the broken pieces because they pile up to become increasingly absurd. However, the pièce de résistance must to be the broken Spider-Man umbrella in the door.
