This beautiful Rolls-Royce was originally registered on 1st December 1956. It has been subject to a major restoration and as such presents in beautiful condition. The two-tone coachwork presents very well save for a very small mark on the near side front wing which is currently being addressed.
The interior is outstanding, with the St James red leather in excellent condition and the spectacular woodwork having been removed & beautifully refinished. There are burr walnut picnic tables for use of the rear passengeres & unusually the car is fitted with a factory sunroof & wind deflector.
The fastidious and knowledgeable owner has ensured throughout his stewardship the car has wanted for nothing. Turn the key and the car starts immediately, drop the gear lever into drive and the smoothness of this Silver Cloud is immediately apparent, it glides over bumps and is simply a delight to drive. The small tools are found under the boot carpet in their appointed place.
The brakes often a troublesome area of these cars, operate as they should with a well adjusted servo. A huge history file dating back to 1972 comes with the car along with a V5 registration document.
Prestige, class and sophistication are all words that come to mind when driving this Rolls-Royce, with its immaculate chromework and fabulous condition, this is a car that needs to be viewed to be fully appreciated. Some £80,000 in comprehensive bills come with the car attesting to the level of care is has had under the current ownership.
