For Sale: 1985 Rolls-Royce Corniche in Fort Lauderdale, Florida

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
