This Rolls Royce was aquired from an inheritance and is sold as is where is. No reserve auction. Clean california title. No back fees are due. No Smog necessary. This is a 4 door saloon which ran 4 years ago and nothing has been done with it since. It did start and drive then, however we found it was leaking gasoline somewhere around the gas tank area so it was not moved. The muffler was also rusted so it sounds like a muscle car, not like a Rolls Royce is supposed too. The leather is the original hides from 1967 and are in poor shape with exception of the doors, ceiling, and dash which are in good condition. In my opinion, the two front seats need to be reupholstered, the rest is good unless you wanted a show car. The transmission is the factory 4 speed automatic which we believe it to be a General Motors Transmission. The engine is a 6230cc L410 V8. This rolls royce has disc brakes, independent rear suspension. It appears that the self levelling suspension has been replaced as whoever installed the new high pressure hydraulic system, left the old steel tubing right along next to it. There were over 25,000 Silver Shadows made, which is the highest number of all rolls royce to date. This means parts are much easier to obtain. As stated previously, the car has not been started in 4 years, however, all the fluids are good and the car has been parked on clean cement, interestingly, not one drip of oil has fallen on the ground which is pretty amazing. There are a few dents and rust spots on the car here and there, (I would say it needs a paint job) one of the headlights appears to be needing replacement, the air intake on the engine has a small rip right after the air filter. we dont know what has been replaced on the engine but it appears the starter solenoid or relay has been replaced or something because there are newer style wires there. the R12 air conditioning system appears original and we do not know if it works or not. the right rear tail lamp is missing the top portion of the plastic. there are two trim peices on the car that are missing alone with one on the rear of the trunk. the chrome around the car is in good shape with exception to the left front bumper which has rust. (the front bumper is 5 peices so you only have to rechrome one piece.) The glass is all perfect. no chips on the front windshield and the rear windshield has the built in heater core. the back seats both have the picnic style fold out wooden tables. these appear to be in good shape. The wood trim on the dash is average for its age. A nice new coat of laquer would really set it off. The nice thing about all the wood in the car is that it is real solid burlwood, not laminate peices like the new rolls royce's have in them. They are thick and can be sanded down and re lacquered without fear of sanding the wood off. the car has 99,898 original miles on it. It was owned and enjoyed by one person for many years until he passed away. Previous to that, the original owner purchased it at the Rolls royce dealer in Rybrook, Birmingham, England. The car comes with a spare tire and original tire jack. We will help with arraingments for shipping, however, we do not have the means to transport it, therefore arraingments will need to be made to pick it up from Granite Hills, San Diego, California. This car is almost 50 years old so please do not expect a perfect car. This one needs some TLC to get back on the road, but you can rest assured the engine and tranny should be good to go once you fix the above mentioned.

Rolls-Royce to decide on SUV by year's end
Fri, Jan 9 2015The market for high-end luxury SUVs continues to climb, but Rolls-Royce is in no huge rush to jump on the leather-clad, high-riding bandwagon. The company has just announced a new sales record for the fifth year running, with over 4,000 units delivered in 2014. But it recognizes that SUVs are where the market is going, so it's going to carefully weigh its options, and make a decision on how to proceed by the end of 2015. This according to Rolls-Royce CEO Torsten Muller-Otvos in speaking with Auto Express. "There is not yet a final decision, because we still need to answer a couple of questions ourselves," said Muller-Otvos in regard to a potential SUV, admitting, "You need to move the brand from time to time, you need to go with the flow. We might even see in a few years that the classical sedan segments are shrinking due to the fact that SUV type vehicles are growing. So if you don't change your product portfolio to something that is up to date then at some point in time you might even die." If the storied Goodwood-based marque does proceed with an SUV, it would be following former sister-company Bentley into the segment. But they're not the only ones. Mercedes is said to be preparing a Maybach version of the next GL-Class, Jaguar Land Rover keeps making increasingly expensive and luxurious Range Rovers, and Maserati is preparing to launch its Levante crossover. The prospect of an SUV isn't the only project Rolls-Royce has in the works, though. It's got a convertible version of the Wraith coming soon, and sooner or later there will be a replacement for the thirteen-year-old Phantom saloon, potentially to include some carbon fiber in its construction to help trim weight. A hybrid powertrain could be in the mix as well, though customers have shunned the idea of a pure electric model. Just don't expect a Rolls-Royce more accessible than the Ghost: the company is glad to be growing its sales, but is not chasing any specific sales targets that would press it to cheapen the brand by going down-market.

Rolls-Royce Spectre EV getting a 650-horsepower Black Badge variant?
Wed, Nov 8 2023The electric Rolls-Royce Spectre made its debut earlier in 2023, and the British brand is already looking at ways to expand the range. While nothing is official, leaked certification documents for the Australian market suggest that a Black Badge model with more power is on its way. Australian website Drive wrote that the Spectre Black Badge's unveiling is imminent. While it didn't publish the leaked documents, so we can't verify their authenticity, it noted that the Black Badge treatment will include a 650-horsepower evolution of the standard car's dual-motor drivetrain. For context, the standard variant of the Spectre is rated at 577 horsepower. If the leaked figure is accurate, the Spectre Black Badge will be the most powerful series-produced car in the Rolls-Royce range, eclipsing models like the 592-horse Cullinan Black Badge. The extra power shouldn't have a major effect on driving range. The aforementioned certification documents peg the coupe's range at up to 342 miles, compared to about 345 for the standard Spectre. Keep in mind those figures won't necessarily carry over to the American-market model, because Australia uses its own methods to obtain a range figure. In the United States, the Spectre has a range of up to 260 miles. Beyond the drivetrain, the Spectre Black Badge will receive the same basic tweaks as other Black Badge-branded members of the Rolls-Royce range, according to the same report. The list will include a suspension system revised for sportier handling, blacked-out design details, trim-specific wheels, and new-look interior trim. Of course, buyers will be able to customize nearly aspect of the Spectre Black Badge. Rolls-Royce hasn't commented on the report, and it hasn't confirmed plans to launch a Black Badge variant of the Spectre, let alone one with a 650-horsepower drivetrain. If the rumor is accurate, we should learn more about the big electric coupe in the not-too-distant future. Pricing hasn't been announced, but the Black Badge will cost more than the standard Spectre. Don't try to flip one: Rolls-Royce will blacklist you.
