1990 Rolls-Royce Silver Spur II

Highlight

  • 6.75 V8 automatic
  • Long wheelbase
  • Low verified mileage
  • Good service history
  • Excellent original condition

The Appeal

Design philosophy, engineering integrity, craftsmanship, the finest materials, comprehensive specification and tradition all play their part in maintaining the Rolls Royce reputation of being the best cars in the world, and a uniquely satisfying car to own and drive.

With only 2 owners from new and a good service history this very nicely presented Silver Spur II has the extra-long wheelbase for even greater comfort and space in the rear of the car.

The History and Paperwork

  • First registered in 1990
  • Regularly maintained by Seymour & Curd 
  • Inherited by the current owner in 2003
  • Very little use since importation
  • History confirms low mileage
  • MOT till 06/07/23
  • V5c present showing 2 UK owners 
  • 3 sets of keys
  • Spare wheel and tools

Since inheriting the car nearly 20 years ago the car has been maintained and serviced regularly by an independent Rolls Royce specialist who can be contacted to vouch for the mechanical prowess and condition of this very lovely Rolls Royce. Sadly not much in the way of paperwork or invoices relating to the work remain.

The Interior

  • Luxurious leather interior
  • Cream leather with contrasting blue piping and carpets
  • Climate control
  • Heated seats
  • Extensive burr walnut throughout with rear picnic tables
The luxurious and well-appointed cream leather cabin is very welcoming and in really good condition throughout, still having that wonderful real leather smell from the high quality leather, plenty of wood panelling and deep pile carpets.

The interior is hard to fault and shows very little sign of any wear and tear, with only a small scratch to the passenger door handle worth mentioning, probably caused by passengers nails or jewellery. 

Air Conditioning, power steering and electric windows are all featured on this car and everything is reported to be working, except for the cruise control, which works intermittently.

The boot is carpeted and clean and houses the spare wheel, toolset and jack.

The Exterior

  • Cobalt Blue metallic with Cream vinyl roof
  • Excellent alloy wheels 
  • Excellent original condition


With its original paint in cobalt Blue Metallic with a contrasting vinyl roof the Rolls Royce looks spectacular and presents itself very well indeed.

There are some very minor imperfections and the odd stone chip to be found in the paintwork and a small dent in the driver’s door but the brightwork is all still nice and shiny and everything looks as it should.

The doors close with that reassuring sound of a quality car and the wheels are all nice too, with only one of the stylish hubcaps showing some slight corrosion.

The Mechanics

  • Fully serviced recently
  • MOT till July 2023
  • Regularly driven and maintained
The engine starts easily and willingly and provides ample silky-smooth power and acceleration through its automatic gearbox, with no known mechanical or other issues to report, driving superbly and being ready to drive away.

Always cared for by either a main dealer or specialist the car is presented in all-round excellent mechanical condition.


The Summary

With its low verified mileage, only two owners, service history and being presented in such excellent all-round original condition and very nice colours, this is an opportunity to experience everything that this refined and exquisite Rolls Royce has to offer first hand.

The safest way to buy a classic car online

About Max Bids

The max bid process allows you to bid without any hassle.

Enter your maximum bid and we will then bid on your behalf to ensure you're the highest bidder - just enough to keep you in the lead and only up until your maximum.

Anti-sniping

Car & Classic prevent auction snipers from bidding in the last seconds to win an auction.

Auctions are extended by 3 minutes if anyone bids within the last 2 minutes to allow other bidders to react and counter-bid.

Auto-bidding increments

  • If your maximum bid is equal to or below the reserve price, your maximum bid will be applied in full if you are the highest bidder.
  • If you are the highest bidder and place a maximum bid above the reserve, we will automatically put in the reserve as your first bid.
    • Once the reserve has been met, Car & Classic will make sure you are the highest bidder using only the bidding increments stated below.
    • We will keep you in the lead up until your maximum bid OR the increment closest to your maximum bid, providing your maximum bid is enough to cover the increment value.

Bid Amount Increment
£0 to £9,999 £100.00
£10,000 to £49,999 £250.00
£50,000 to £99,999 £500.00
£100,000 + £1,000.00

Automatically outbid immediately

When you place a max bid and are outbid immediately that means that another bidder has placed a max bid limit which is higher than yours.

You can bid again and we will use our automatic bid system to try and get you as the highest bidder.

Matching max bids

When there are two max bids of the same value, the one placed first remains the lead bidder.

Pre-authorisation

We may hold a pre-authorisation charge on your card until the end of the auction when the hold will be cancelled. If you win, we'll take a security deposit which counts towards the payment for the vehicle and isn't any extra cost to you.

What are pre-bids?

A pre-bid means you're able to place a bid before the official start of the auction.
You will be notified whether or not you are the highest bidder when the auction starts.

Problem with your bid

Bids are contractually binding. To help protect you, we have some rules in place if we think it's been mistyped. Please check and amend what you have entered.
