Here is a really stunning looking Rolls-Royce Corniche convertible
finished in the most gorgeous combination of Royal Blue (metallic)
with biscuit tan Connolly hide interior and rich blue piping. The
carpets are in matching tan Wilton wool accented with blue
throughout with beautiful brand new Lambswool mouton overlays in
Royal blue. A very, very handsome colour combination throughout.
The twin fine lines to the waist-rails are hand-painted in light
tan to match the interior. The Royal blue takes on a dramatic
effect in strong sunlight but in evening and subdued light,
transforms to a very formal quasi blue/black hue. Very nice indeed.
The Rolls-Royce Corniche is powered by a 6.75 litre Rolls-Royce
designed and built V8 engine with the Bosch fuel injecton system
which provides ultra smooth touring. This example is very original
in every detail - with the exception of an aftermarket radio
installed (which can easily be changed back to factory, or
something more modern, if so desired). This one is a very clean
example from California pretty much its whole life. The Carfax
confirms all. She is a 3-owner example, regularly maintained by the
last owner of some 25 years - using it only for special weekend
enjoyment. Hence the very low miles. Like all Park-Ward Motors'
cars, the car is being sold turn-key. It is subject to a unique
process by us only, known as "Predelivery Commissioning" whereby
every major and minor service is done, any preventative maintenance
needed, attended to, and all operational features serviced as
required; AC, seats, windows, roof etc. The process is a bit like
late model cars when they are sold with a Certified Warranty. With
Park-Ward, you get a true "turn-key" motor car. The paint finish on
the car is simply stunning. Very deep in lustre and consistency. It
was repainted at some stage and was a very high-end job in the
original factory colour. She presents beautifully with a very high
shine. Rubbers, mouldings, badges and external fittings are all in
good condition. The interior matching Everflex convertible top is
top condition with hardly any fading of the rear "glass". The
interior on this car is also very nice and original in
presentation. The original leather shows beautifully showing off
its true Connolly hide characteristics. They are super supple and
soft. The door and rear quarter wood was redone prior to our
acquisition and then all the dash and centre console redone by
Park-Ward. As a result, it all presents stunningly as it is simply
flawless and like new. Carpets, seats, dash, console, fixtures and
fittings are truly excellent and I best encourage you to look at
all the photos to fully appreciate how nicely the interior
presents. The factory set of lambswool mouton overlay rugs
highlight the interior adorably. The car is of very high standard
and is an easy 10 out of 10 driver rating. She is indeed an
exquisitely beautiful example of the Corniche series in its
stunning Royal Blue coach work and with only few, in this very fine
condition, remaining these days.
