Developed to replace the Silver Shadow, Rolls-Royce introduced the Silver Spirit in 1980 and it was to be the beginning of a new era of Rolls-Royce with a significant departure from the styling of the Shadow to a more streamlined, practical and largely ‘self-drive’ Rolls-Royce. Hand built in Crewe, the Spirit retained a great deal of the Shadows running gear, utilising the same 6.75 litre V8 engine, 3-speed gearbox and hydro-pneumatic self-levelling suspension.

This example has led a charmed life, having covered just 66,653 miles with the current owner, a member of the Rolls-Royce Enthusiasts Club, who bought her at less than a year old from Royce Service & Engineering. As part of the current owners Wedding Car Fleet it had been fastidiously maintained by Bowling Ryan until circa 2 years ago when it was parked and retired from service due to ill health.

Finished in Silver over blue, with leather in excellent condition, this a non-running recommissioning project and the vendor reports the following known issues:

· Petrol pump has been removed.

· Some lacquer peel and dull paint will require attention.

· One quarter window is missing.

The vendor reports that the bonnet release is inoperative, unsure if due to a fault or lack of use, and it's likely that the brakes are seized due to lack of movement.

Thanks to the Vendor for providing and checking all information.
