Description
Built 1978, but first registered 01. 01. 1979
We at Craner Classics are delighted to offer this Silver Shadow Mark II in time for long-overdue Christmas celebrations, finished in distinguished Rolls Royce Metallic Walnut with dark cream Everflex vinyl-covered roof. The interior is exquisite; cream leather upholstery, with cream carpets and footrests, and matching deep pile lambswool overmats, set off magnificently by mid-tone wood veneers to the fascia and door caps. All of which is original and in extremely good condition.
Doubtless close inspection will reveal the odd blemish, as one might expect in a forty-two-year-old car that is still in much-enjoyed occasional use. Everything on the car works as it should, including the heating and air conditioning, all instruments, and the radio and electric aerial and windows. Both large and small tools are present and also correct.
It would appear from the history file that the car has had four owners in its early years, but was owned from 1987-2016 by its next owner. It was then sold again but not used until bought by the present owner and recommissioned, with new battery and tyres, a comprehensive service, and modified to accept LPG (liquid petroleum gas) as an option, thus making the car very economical, which is certainly a plus for a high-end limousine.
In the present owner's care the car has attended local shows and rallies, completing the Jimmy Guthrie Memorial Run amongst others.
There is a considerable service history accompanying the car, and it has always been maintained by luxury car specialists H. R. Owen, and a complete history for the period 2000-2016.
