This Claret with Beige hide 6750cc Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow II was registered in May 1980. The vendor tells us that it runs and drives and that he's unaware of any issues with it - aside from the driver's seat electric functions not now working - but it has seen little use since 2006. That is backed up by the low indicated mileage of 15,415 miles; at its MoT test in June 2006, the mileage recorded was 10,207 miles. The current MoT is valid until June 2024.
The history file accompanying the Rolls-Royce is an extensive one. It includes the V5C and original leather book pack with owner's handbook and supplement, fuel consumption charts, delivery information book and sales and service information booklet. There's even the original spare key, still in its Rolls-Royce plastic bag. There's also old tax discs, previous V5s, Rolls-Royce Enthusiasts' Club correspondence and invoices for work and parts from 2000 to 2017, with most of the more recent jobs carried out by the marque specialist Colbrook. The MoT certificates date from 2001 to 2009, 2011, 2014 to 2015, 2017, 2019 and 2022 to 2023. In addition, there are some photos of the car plus two Flying Spares catalogues.
