1980 Rolls Royce Silver Spirit - A Beautiful Example Of Rr Quality on 2040-cars
Deltona, Florida, United States
|
For sale is a 1980 Rolls Royce Silver Spirit, European edition with right hand drive (RHD). The paint is glossy and shiny and the body is outstanding with no scratches, dents or dings; not even a door ding. The leather interior is in excellent condition with the usual wear on the driver's seat as shown in the pictures. No rips or tears. Comes with the optional foot rests in the back. Carpet on driver's side is showing some wear but has no holes. The carpet for the rest lf the car is in great condition. The headliner is perfect. Tires are good and the matching color full wheel covers are scratch free. Please look carefully at the pictures of the exterior- I can't stress enough how great this car looks. Chrome is not pitted or rusted. The air conditioning is ice cold, the power windows work without hesitation and the power side mirrors and power antennae work fine. This car floats down the highway and is in very good condition for being 33 years old. Car comes with four large binders containing complete service manuals for the Silver Spirit and it's sister model, the Silver Spur with the long wheel base.
I don't know anything about the history of this car as I bought it from a private seller who had owned it for a short time.
As previously stated, power seats, cruise control, power door locks and temperature gauge do not work. Wood trim on doors is starting to crack. Car smokes a bit when first started and then is fine for the rest of the day. Will need a tune-up and possibly carburetors rebuilt at some point |

Home of Rolls-Royce Collection makes debut at the Quail
Sat, 17 Aug 2013Rolls-Royce is marking 10 years of production at its Goodwood, England home, with the aptly named Home of Rolls-Royce Collection. The first instance of the Collection, a brilliantly appointed Phantom, has come to The Quail to make its world debut.
The goal of the Home of Rolls-Royce Collection seems to be to really showcase the kind of pristine, detailed work that the artisans back in Goodood are capable off, while creating a car that almost instantly achieves heirloom status. The Phantom seen here displays a truly impressive wood paneled cabin, where a technique called marquetry has been used to inlay some 170 sections of 11 different types of wood into a "celebration" motif.
You'll find a compass theme throughout the car as well - inside and out - which the company tells us is meant to highlight the sales of Goodwood-built Rollers on five continents across the world. Compass designs can be found on the armrests and center console, with each piece of embroidery taking more than 100,000 stitches to create. Not to be outdone in terms of time lavished, the compass motif painted on the exterior of the car takes one squirrel-hair-brush-wielding craftsman six hours to perfectly apply.
Rolls-Royce teases Wraith debut in Geneva
Fri, 18 Jan 2013Rolls-Royce is headed to the 2013 Geneva Motor Show with a new addition to its lineup: the Wraith. The ultra-luxury automaker says it plans to start deliveries by the fourth quarter of this year, though details are scarce at the moment. The automaker has contented itself with saying the Wraith will the "most dynamic, powerful and beautiful Rolls-Royce in the company's history." We hear it will be the most modest, too.
Rolls-Royce first began using the Wraith nameplate in 1938. The original car used a tweaked version of the 4.3-liter inline six-cylinder found in the company's 25/30, but its real claim to fame came from the fact that it boasted speed-variable hydraulic dampers. Capable of reaching speeds of up to 85 miles per hour, Rolls-Royce only built 492 examples of the vehicle's chassis.
You can look for the new Wraith to bow at the Geneva Motor Show in March. In the interim, check out the shockingly bare press release below and get ready for a spate of teasers to follow.
BMW preparing two concepts for Villa d'Este
Thu, 20 Mar 2014Every spring, the finest automobiles ever to grace tarmac gather on the shores of Lake Como for the Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este. It's a chance for the most beautiful classics to compete for awards and for automakers and design studios to show off their concept cars under the soft light of the Italian sun. But while most of the vehicles old and new that show up for the concours are ones we've seen before, BMW takes things a step further.
As patron of the concorso d'eleganza for the past ten years, BMW regularly cooks up something new for the glamorous extravaganza. Last year it teamed up with Pininfarina for the Gran Lusso Coupé and revealed it alongside the Concept 90 motorcycle. The year before that came the BMW Zagato Coupe, preceded by the 328 Hommage and the M1 Hommage (pictured above) before it.
The theme for this year's event is the Roaring Twenties. BMW may not have been known back then on the same level as Bugatti or Duesenberg, but Rolls-Royce sure was.
