Vehicle Description
Prestigious Euro Cars is proud to present an absolutely exceptional
stunning and very collectible example of this original southern
Florida 1986 Rolls Royce Corniche II Convertible Drop Head coupe
with only 62146 original miles in this highly striking color
combination of original factory 'Magnolia' exterior paint with
contrasting painted pin-stripes, with 'Tan' Connolly leather seats
with piping and matching 'Tan' carpets with a full set of matching
original Lamb's wool rugs, a matching power soft top with a tan
mohair headliner and a matching leather tonneau cover.An
uncompromising head-turner which never fails to get compliments
from all who see her! The car was recently serviced prior to sale
at the long time local independent Rolls Royce specialists, the
renown Taylor Motors Fort Lauderdale Fl. and the car has a clean
bill of health for its new owner. At no time was any expense spared
on this particular vehicle's preventive maintenance. Finished in
this highly striking color combination with striking Rolls Royce
mag wheels and with all the chromework, including the Rolls Royce
grille, in absolutely outstanding and virtually flawless condition,
this car would be virtually impossible to duplicate and you will
most likely never see another one like it anywhere! The convertible
top and it's headliner and the boot (tonneau cover) are also in
great condition. The original and magnificent burled walnut
woodwork is also in virtually flawless condition throughout. All
the power options and electric windows are working as they should
and the air conditioning system blows ice-cold air! This obviously
always extraordinarily well maintained Rolls Royce engine runs
extremely strong and these cars are not slow - the engine purrs
like a kitten, never stalls or idles rough and is extremely
reliable.The transmission shift is almost imperceptibly smooth and
the temperature always remains cool. The Corniche is truly a
sensual car that you can drive with your fingertips, smooth and
relatively silent, it's thoroughly therapeutic for both drivers and
passengers. The delightful precision action of the electrically
powered steering column gear change and the ultra light weighted
power steering allows one to park this 5000lbs of pure luxury with
literally one finger and this long but actually quite slender car
is anything but ponderous thanks to it's torque and brilliant
turning radius! The ride is truly luxurious from a high riding
position and the soft feel of the Corniche is like no other car on
the road. This particular model drives particularly well and must
be driven to be fully appreciated! The Corniche was Rolls Royce's
coupe and convertible versions of the Silver Shadow saloon and
which was produced between 1971 and 1996. The model was assembled
in Crewe and finished in London at the renown Rolls Royce
coachbuilders 'Mulliner Park Ward' as a continuation of their 1965
Silver Shadow coupe and 1967 drophead, with the Corniche name
applied in 1971. The Corniche coupe was discontinued in 1982 with
total production of the coupes (1971-82) being only 1,108 and of
the convertibles (1971-87), only 3,239. The car as reworked in 1986
as the Corniche II (with 1,226 produced) and in late 1989 as the
Corniche III (with 452 produced). In 1993 the Corniche IV was built
(with 244 produced) when production was moved to Crewe after the
closure of Mulliner Park Ward and the final form in 2000 was as the
Corniche V after which production ceased in 2001. This is one of
only 1,226 Corniche II's built between 1986-89 and one of the last
in the original line of cars hand built in the legendary Rolls
Royce Crewe factory and then converted at their renown
coachbuilder's Mulliner Park Ward, of London England with a quality
and craftsmanship that far surpasses that of today's mass produced
models with many BMW parts. Finished in this striking color
combination and complete with all of its original owner's
handbooks, manuals. PLEASE CALL BOB AT 954-779-1000
