Vehicle Description
Near perfect condition for an original, 37,000 miles example! Most
desired color combination of Magnolia over soft Tan hides with
Magnolia piping! Excellent documentation that include original
books/manuals, service records, tools, woolskin rugs, and more! A
true investment example! With changes coming about for Rolls Royce
& Bentley to meet both a demanding public and continued United
States efficiency mandates, their largest importer of the brand, a
new model lineup was introduced for the 1980 model year to replace
the Silver Wraith II and Silver Shadow II series. The new series
would be named Silver Spirit along with longer wheelbase luxury
model, the Silver Spur. The Spur would stretch the wheelbase to
124.5 and provide a standard Everflex top & larger rear passenger
area fitted with tray tables. These outstanding long wheelbase
road-going cars were very successful and produced through the 1989
model year, averaging only 624 units per year. Today, finding
examples that have been maintained perfectly, and remain factory
original with ultra-low mileage can be extremely difficult. This
example will impress even the most critical of collectors! This
particular 1989 Rolls Royce Silver Spur Saloon marks the final year
this model would be produced in its original design. Finished in
the most desired of color combinations featuring Magnolia exterior
(9510418) over Tan hides (A4178) with Magnolia piping (A3997) and
Deep Fawn carpeting (7026)! A remarkable example that shows just
36,753 miles on the odometer today, all supported with service
documentation. Features include original, numbers matching 6.75L V8
engine mated to a Turbo-Hydramatic 3-speed automatic transmission,
automatic climate control system (already converted to R134a),
Girling hydraulic ride height leveling system, power windows, power
locks, power seats, power mirrors, cruise control, leather wrapped
steering wheel, front woolskin floor mats, passenger visor vanity
mirror, Alpine AM/FM/CD/AUX/MP3 player, hood mascot, high pressure
