Description

1978 Rolls Royce Corniche FHC Left Hand Drive.

Vin Number:  CRX30976

Registration Number:  GD-779-TK French.

Just 3 owners from new & in amazing conditon.  This Left Hand Drive Corniche fixed head coupe was supplied new to the Netherlands & has covered just 108000 KMs, or 67,000 miles during its cosseted life.  The car currently resides in a secure Paris garage on the North Bank of the Seine

The car is finished in flawless Moorland green metallic.  The car had a respray to a very high standard & presents beautifully.  At the same time the black everflex roof was replaced & looks like new.

To the interior is original mid green leather along with green wilton carpets. New sheepskin deep pile floor mats add to the ambience. The woodwork has all been removed & refinished to a factory equivaent mirror gloss.  Everything works just as it ought & the car is overall in very strong mechanical condition.

Under the bonnet the engine bay is corrosion free & well detailed as a result of always being garaged when not in use.  The engine starts instantly & settles down to a silent idle with no ticking from the tappets or untoward noises; indeed it is one of the nicer running units I have come across.

The car comes with its original tool kit in the boot.  There is also a full set of picnic requisites along with table and chairs; the picnic utensils being stored in two custom made green cases that nestle in the boot.  The cases fold open to reveal detachable legs making the cases into a useful picnic table.

Having seen & driven the car we can attest to its excellence.  It is in simply first rate condition & is way way above average.  It is a rarer left hand drive example & is european taxes paid should it remain within the EEC.

Viewings are stronly encouraged, but the car is of a quality where it may be puchased in confidence sight unseen.  We can arrange door to door delivery world wide.
