1976 Rolls Royce Silver Shadow on 2040-cars
Gladwyne, Pennsylvania, United States
|
This auction is for a 1976 Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow I. The car is finished in two-tone paint and has a tan leather interior with dark brown piping. The car starts easily, runs well and rides as a Rolls-Royce should. The car comes with a complete maintenance history from 2004 through 2012 and has been owned since 1985. The car has always been garaged and has a clear Pennsylvania title. Rolls Royce spent 11 years perfecting the design of the Silver Shadow. First launched in 1965, the Silver Shadow included many new features and luxury enhancements. The transmission, seats, windows, aerial, and climate control were now electrically operated and the suspension was self-leveling. The Silver Shadow was also the first Rolls Royce to feature monocoque construction. Having rolled over this example bears and odometer
reading of 3,278 miles meaning the car has traveled 103,278 miles. The car is taken out for short exercise rides weekly. This
Silver Shadow is a driver quality car and is not without some flaws. The
interior wood finish is what one would expect of a car of this age, however
there are a few spots - most notably the driver’s side door that needs
refinishing. The power windows operate slowly and the driver’s side window has
stalled short of closing in the past. There is a small tear in the driver side
door upholstery; a small burn on the right rear side (not on the seat surface
itself) of the seat (closest to the door) and a small burn on the right side interior
door armrest panel by the ashtray. The body has some small scratches, a tiny dent on the
front passenger door and two deeper scratches (one on driver’s side rear and
one on the rear). The car has a battery tender installed to keep the battery
fresh. |

Rolls-Royce starts a turf war in the Garden of Wraith
Fri, 03 Oct 2014The Rolls-Royce Wraith would not be our first choice for hooning. Sure, it's god 624 horsepower channeled to the rear wheels, but it's an automatic, it costs the better part of $300,000 and it's laden with more leather, wood and carpeting than Harrod's. Leave it to Tax the Rich to toss it around then.
For those unfamiliar, the YouTube channel sporadically features videos of some of the most powerful and expensive pieces of automotive machinery being put up to no good. They've done the Ferrari 288 GTO, F50 (two of 'em, in fact) and Enzo and even the Jaguar XJ220 - twice - but now they've turned their attention to the most powerful Rolls ever, tossing it around the grounds of an old-world mansion estate like it was a Subie.
Third Rolls-Royce Wraith teaser looks inward
Wed, 20 Feb 2013After shadowy images of the 2014 Rolls-Royce Wraith in profile and of the car's rump, the slow striptease of this hyper-luxury coupe finally starts to show us what the inside of the car will look like. We'll get our up-close look at the 2014 Wraith at the Geneva Motor Show on March 5th, but to tide us over until then, Rolls-Royce has provided a pair of images showing just some of the details that will be present inside.
Promising the interior of an "ultra-luxury yacht," the Wraith will get plenty of soft leather and real wood paneling, and as we suspected, this car will share a lot of interior bits with its sedan counterpart, the Rolls-Royce Ghost. We can somewhat see this from the second image provided showing the placement of the clock and the air vents that look almost identical to what can be seen currently on the Ghost. On the Wraith, though, the clock's hands feature "Blood Orange" tips, which not only contrast the high-gloss, piano black finish of this instrument panel but also is designed to pay homage to the aviation side of Rolls-Royce.
Rolls-Royce planning one or two new models based on the Ghost
Wed, 29 Aug 2012Fourteen years after Volkswagen bought Bentley, its English brand has two distinct lines, Mulsanne and Continental - with numerous variants at the Continental's lower price point - an SUV on the way and perhaps a sports car and a Mulsanne convertible, too. In the 14 years since BMW bought Rolls-Royce, its English brand has the Phantom and Ghost - with three variants at the Phantom's much higher price point. Rolls-Royce doesn't chase sales, but the difference in the brand direction helps explain why Bentley has sold more cars in the first six months of this year than Rolls-Royce sold all of last year.
And even though Rolls-Royce isn't solely about the tally, it would still like to improve on the 3,538 cars it sold last year - a sales record that eclipsed a mark set in 1978. To do so its CEO is planning one or two more Ghost-based models beyond the as-yet-unnamed Ghost Coupe due next year, perhaps to be called the Corniche, according to a report in Autocar. A convertible version of the Ghost Coupe is the obvious guess for one of them, and it would get the double-R "closer to 4,000" sales, where the CEO would like to be.
Sales might not be the only part of it, though; the headline of the Autocar piece says the CEO wants the new models because they're "required to give Rolls-Royce a proper identity." If that is accurate, we have no idea what kind of identity Rolls-Royce could be missing that would be served by a wider range of cars in the Ghost range, which by their place in the brand's own lineup are admittedly not the most opulent carriages on the planet.
