Silver Spirit II, 18,000 miles only
A
beautiful low mileage low ownership example in stunning, original
condition throughout, previously sold by ourselves.
Covered
just 18,000 miles only with superb maintenance history, the service
records detailing prior maintenance at 3099, 5174, 7331, 9459, 11112,
11697, 13130, 14141, 15429, 16352, 16923, 17721, 18167 and 18267 miles, all servicing
having been carried out by Rolls Royce or respected marque specialists,
the last service at the Chelsea Workshop where close to £7,000 was spent
to make the car perfect.
Together with the stamped service book we have an A4 binder containing a
large collection of invoices detailing work carried out, correspondence
from Rolls Royce to the previous owner and MOT history from VOSA. The car
has been maintained with no regard to expense and always at marque
specialists despite being little used.
The car also benefits from 4 new Avon narrow band whitewall tyres
Initially supplied by Jack Barclay to a Mr Ford of Hickling Pastures, the
car was retained for two years before passing to a Mr Toone of Billesdon
with 11,000 miles recorded. Mr Toone kept the vehicle for 21 years using
it only for high days and holidays and covering just 6,000 miles during
his tenure, the car being serviced exclusively at respected marque
specialist Michael Powles approximately every 1,000 miles. The vehicle
passed to it's 3rd owner in 2013 with 16,923 miles covered and was
immediately submitted to Fearon's, another well respected specialist, with
instructions to do whatever was necessary, the bill amounting to over
£4,000 is with the paperwork. At this time the underside of the vehicle
was cleaned extensively and heavily undersealed to protect it from
corrosion. Again, the car was used only for special occasions and was kept
in a bone dry garage with a small collection of other vehicles, every
single one of which was in immaculate condition. The enthusiastic owner
carried out 2 services himself at 17350 and 17470 miles with invoices for
parts present in the service portfolio indicating that the engine oil,
filters and coolant were changed. Eventually the car was submitted to
Fearon's once again for the final service detailed above which included an
air conditioning system overhaul.
We
initially purchased the car two and half years ago and sold it to a
gentleman who lived in England but had business interests in Europe and
Asia. The gentleman kept the car for two years and covered just 700 miles
as he is often out of the country, despite this he had the car thoroughly
serviced at the Chelsea Workshop so it would be ready for use when he was
home. The car was always garaged and kept
immaculately clean by the gentleman's driver. The gentleman also had fitted a modern Blaupunkt DAB
stereo system in the period style with very similar appearance to the
original unit and completely in keeping
with the vehicle.
The car
drives flawlessly, the engine especially quiet and everything working
exactly as it should, just as you would expect from a vehicle which has
covered such a low mileage and been serviced only by well respected marque specialists.
Finished
in beautiful Midnight blue with magnolia hide complemented by dark veneers
with matchwood inlays, the rear compartment complimented by footstools and
vanity mirrors. The entire car is in really quite superb condition,
the interior showing little signs of ever being used, the leather,
woodwork and carpets all perfect and factory fresh. The paintwork is deep
and lustrous and appears to be original throughout, this is a car that has
clearly lead a pampered life and been very well cared for.

desirable car indeed
