In my view, this car represents the most elegant Rolls-Royce to leave the Crewe factory in the last five decades. This Corniche is just over forty years old and remarkably has covered just only 23, 000 miles. It is virtually flawless, driving perfectly and smelling extraordinarily like brand new... it's that good the last owner has purchased it twice!
Being a later example of the Corniche, it is deemed a "5000" chassis series car which essentially gave it the underpinnings of the soon to arrive Rolls-Royce Silver Spirit.
The originality of this car is breath-taking. The very up to the minute walnut coloured paintwork is virtually blemish free, whilst the tan interior trim is unworn and like new; a truly remarkable find and possibly a unique opportunity to own such a car.
Pleasingly, a copy of the factory build sheet is present and shows that the top roll, knee roll, steering wheel and horn push were leather covered, plus front wing mounted indicators and a passenger foot-well fire extinguisher were also specified.
Not that it could possibly be in question, but there are MOTs dating back to 1986 confirming the exceedingly low mileage, along with a comprehensive record of ownership which includes some notable individuals. Historical service records plus invoices for a recent thorough check over and full service, which included an air-con recharge and full wax-oil, are all on file; it literally wants for nothing.
Low production numbers made the Corniche rare in period and rarer still today, and when a real gem like this appears it's certainly an opportunity to join an exclusive club.
It would be a pleasure to answer any questions you might have, although to appreciate how special this car is, this special Rolls-Royce Corniche really needs to be seen "in the flesh” and can be inspected at my Guildford showroom - please call me directly on the details below.
