Vehicle Description
West Coast Classics are proud to present an extraordinarily
striking example of this original 'Roy Carver Rolls Royce' of
Newport Beach, CA sold 1982 Rolls Royce Silver Spirit with a low
26K original miles in a beautiful and highly desirable color
combination of original 'Masons Black' (color code 9500701)
exterior paint with original factory painted pin stripes and all
original Tan color 'Connolly' leather (trim code VM4134) interior
and to be sold with a clean CARFAX report confirming the low
original miles and California ownership!The car was purchased new
at 'Roy Carver Rolls Royce' on 5/3/1983 to a well known successful
local businessman who owned and cherished the car for many years.
It was sold with the added factory options of the top roll with
dash and trim and radio surround in leather and sported a sales
price of $93,611 in 1983 (over $243K adjusted for inflation today
according to the CPi inflation calculator!)The beautiful and highly
desirable color combination is its original factory 'Mason's Black'
color exterior paint with painted pin stripes, Rolls Royce hubcaps
and with it's original full Tan 'Connolly' leather interior showing
virtually no wear and even what RR enthusiasts would consider very
desirable original patina, for its age. The paint is in
exceptionally fine condition and all the chrome-work, including the
front grille and bumpers, is outstanding. Obviously always garaged
with no accidents or damage history.The car was reportedly always
primarily serviced only at Rolls Royce dealerships or specialists
since new including initially at 'Roy Carver Rolls Royce' of
Newport Beach, CA and later at 'Rolls Royce of Beverly Hills', CA
where it was most recently fully serviced at 26,174 miles. The car
drives exactly like a well maintained and serviced low mileage
Rolls Royce should and must be seen and driven to be fully
appreciated! The engine is extremely strong with no noticeable oil
leaks, the transmission is very smooth with Rolls Royce's legendary
and almost imperceptible shift and the engine temperature always
remains cool.This is an exceptionally low and original 26K miles
1982 Rolls Royce Silver Spirit with no history of any accidents or
damage of any kind ever! For those who are unfamiliar, Rolls Royce
no longer exists as it had for over one hundred years - this is one
of the last in the original line of cars built in the legendary
Rolls Royce factory in Crewe, England with a quality and
craftsmanship that far surpasses that of today's mass produced
models with many BMW parts - this is a rare opportunity to own a
piece of automobile history, from a time when Rolls Royce was truly
building the world's finest motor cars.This increasingly desirable
and collectible well built Silver Spirit model is becoming
increasingly hard to find, with only some 800 models built each
year (8,129 models built between it's 1980-89 production years) -
so bid with confidence, this will no doubt prove a fabulous
investment for the Rolls Royce enthusiast or collector or simply a
great daily driver or weekend toy for the discerning luxury classic
car owner!
