Here is a really stunning looking Rolls-Royce Silver Spur finished in 2-tone Georgian Silver over Masons Black with 2-tone black Connolly hides with grey accent seat piping. The twin fine lines to the waist-rails are hand-painted in black withy the reverse them on the wheel beauty trims.
The Rolls-Royce Silver Spur is 4″ longer than the standard Silver Spirit saloon, and were considerably more expensive than its brother when new, providing considerable extra rear leg room for rear seat passengers. The Silver Spur is powered by a 6.75 litre Rolls-Royce designed V8 engine with the Bosch fuel injecton system which provides ultra smooth idle and touring.
The 1990 year for Rolls-Royce saw many pertinent design improvements. The most notable being the improved change to Bosche electronics, eliminating the problematic Lucas electrical (“Prince of Darkness”) system that plagued the earlier series. It also saw a completely revised dash with updated AC system and modern alloy wheels with stainless finishers. This car is known as the “30,000 series” to identify these significant changes.
This one is a low 42,000 mile well maintained example with a good clean AutoCheck history (with a score in the top 10%). Its a 2 owner car but the AutoCheck report shows 3 because of a new title reissue.
It has recently been thru Park-Ward’s workshop and anything requiring doing attended to including all the hydraulics and braking system inspected and overhauled as required (pumps, accumulators, gas springs, etc). Mechanically, this car needs nothing. Under the bonnet, the presentation is amazing. It has not been precision detailed but simply kept clean and tidy throughout its life.
Even more special was that this car was ordered with video screens in the rear of the front headrests.
The body of the car is straight and the paint deep in lustre and consistency. It does have a few minor little chips and marks but these are few and only show if one looks hard. Otherwise it is very shiny without any fading, dents or dings. Rubbers, mouldings, badges and external fittings are all in good condition. The vinyl top is original and presents in good un-faded condition. The underside of the car is very clean and rust-free as the car was never driven in winter weather (the low miles is a testament to that).
The interior on this car is really lovely. The Connolly leather shows exquisitely and is entirely original. It has never been re-dyed or messed with and yet presents beautifully without any signs of wear
and the leather soft and supple. The burl walnut and mahogany wood throughout the car is original and virtually perfect which is very rare to see. Even 2005+ cars show signs of lacquer cracking and yet this car has none. This is a true testament to a low mileage car that has been stored in-doors and looked after. It has the optional rear seat picnic tables which are equally perfect. Carpets, seats, dash, headlining and fixtures are truly excellent and I best encourage you to look at all the photos to fully appreciate how nicely the interior presents.
As part of Park-Ward’s maintenance program, all major electricals and features & functions are inspected so everything is to operate as it should; windows, mirrors, A/C, heater, lights, wipers, etc. This is a true, “take the keys and drive” example with no additional budget needed to attend to any nuances or gremlins.
The car is of very high standard and is an easy 9 out of 10 driver rating. With the exception of an updated stereo, she is 100% factory original in specification in every respect.
