Impressive Rolls-Royce Silver Spur, loaded with luxury
Converted by McAllister Cars, limousine and hearse specialists
Original, attractive red leather interior
Extensive work recently complicated on rear suspension
The Appeal
Sometimes we see particularly specialised vehicles at Car and Classic, and there's no doubt that the Silver Spur - the long-wheelbase variant of the ever-enduring Silver Spirit - is exactly that in even its most basic form.
However, this particular one has been converted into a highly impressive limousine, where it's often traded as a companion car for funeral processions. Naturally, any such vehicle demands very high standards.
This particular specimen has been lovingly maintained and regularly serviced by its funeral company, ensuring it remains in good mechanical condition. With its original red leather interior and rust-free underside, this distinguished vehicle is now ready for its new owner.
