Description
Presented in claret over black, this fabulous 20/ 25 features wonderful 'Sedanca de Ville' coachwork by coachbuilders H J Mulliner. Notoriously expensive to produce in period, the design allows the driver to be either fully protected from the elements with the top in place, or open-topped with the roof stowed neatly away over the passenger compartment. Rear seat passengers benefit from the comfort of an extremely well appointed cabin, separated from the driver, if required, by a wind-up glass division, with an ingenious tilting mechanism. To the exterior, twin side-mounted spare wheels, luggage grid with large Brexton trunk and full Lucas lighting set feature. A crest on the rear compartment doors reads 'Nihil Sin Labore', translating as 'nothing without work'.
The 20/ 25s go very nicely on the road with their silky 3. 6-litre straight-six overhead valve engine, and this one also benefits from the improved post-1932 gearbox with synchromesh on third and top gears. It is no surprise then to find that, in its present ownership, 'Jeanette' has been rallied extensively in the British Isles and further afield to Ireland, the Czech Republic, Italy, Switzerland, Germany, France and Spain.
In very nice condition overall, the Rolls has more recently been kept in perfect garage conditions, but seen little use over the last few years . As such we would recommend some recommissioning prior to use. Paperwork included with the sale of the car includes various expenses and servicing costs, accompanied by a receipt of purchase from auction.
A radiator town cap is fitted for security and the Spirit of Ecstasy mascot is also present.
