[History]

The Corniche was a development of the Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow, with the two-door variants of that model marketed as the Silver Shadow Mulliner Park Ward two door fixed head coupé & drop head coupe from 1966 until 1971 when the Corniche name was applied.

The Corniche nameplate stems from the originally French and Italian term for a coastal road, especially along the face of a cliff.

The corniche was assembled and finished in London at Mulliner Park Ward as continuation of the predecessor model and had the company’s 6. 75-liter V8 engine which could produce 218 horsepower and a maximum speed of 210 km/ h. Moreover, a three-speed automatic transmission sourced from General Motors was standard. A four-wheel independent suspension with coil springs was augmented with a hydraulic self-leveling system (using the same system as did Citroën, but without pneumatic springs, and with the hydraulic components built under license by Rolls-Royce), at first on all four, but later on the rear wheels only. Four-wheel disc brakes were specified, with ventilated discs added for 1972.
