1986 Rolls Royce Corniche Ii Convertible on 2040-cars
Danville, Illinois, United States
|
Up for sale is a 1986 Rolls Royce Corniche II Convertible. This was part of a large estate collection and is being offered at the lowest reserve ever for a Corniche II. It was brought out of storage and sent over to Master Rolls in Oak Lawn, IL. Martin the master technician over there went through the car and fixed/serviced/replaced everything it could ever need. The total bill was $11,000 in repairs: Resealed both brake pumps Major Tune Up Oil Change Complete Brake job (rotors, pads, mineral oil) Fuel Filter Air Filter New Battery Fuel line service Rear struts replaced, sealed, oil. Flush brake system Top off all fluids Seals replaced Power Steering replaced I am sure I am missing a few things but those were major items. It now runs, starts, drives, and stops as if it were new. AC even works. All the electronics work. Odometer did just stop working for some reason. I can't figure out why, maybe it will start working again. The car is not driven so the mileage is right around 52,000. Tires look new. Mechanically needs nothing to enjoy. The Corniche spent most of its life in California. It was purchased roughly 10 years ago by the owner. I Have owned it for the last 3 months. Hate to part with it , but have just bought another toy. Comes with the complete manual and documents. I have the receipts for the $11,000 in work as well. Condition of the exterior of the car as you can see looks good in the pictures. The paint is white but, underneath the clear coat it is all spider webbed/cracked. I have no idea how something like this could have happened. It is tough to notice unless you get very close and look. It is very smooth to touch. The red convertible top does have a rip at the bottom driver side corner. Nothing to serious but not perfect. Rims are in great shape no issues. Like I said tires are in great condition. Chrome grill is perfect. The rear bumper has wear on it, the chrome piece has pealed off in a spot. There is a long scratch at the bottom which is pictured. Interior condition is light tan leather with no rips but shows wear as a almost 30 year old car would. Driver side is the worse as to be accepted. Wood is very nice and bright no wear there. Carpet is all red and has no rips and looks very nice. It has one of the thick lambs wool driver side floor mats. Radio works, windows all work, top goes up and down on its own. Heat and AC both work. Power seats work. Has the Nardi signed steering wheel option. Feel free to ask any questions. I am not a dealer so I don't have a shipping company but I can work with anyone's company of choice for shipping out of state or country. $1,000 deposit due within 48 hours. Final payment due within a week. This does have the factory Gold plated spirit of ecstasy and the very nice factory alloy wheels both of these options are very rare. It has the parade boot as well. The car is a great drivers car that does have some cosmetic issues that you can see from the picture but it is in very presentable condition right now and can be a great driver. You can drive it for a few years than put some money into it to make it worth that $60,000 show car. At the price this is being let go at you will be very happy with the purchase. For the work that was just done on the car I do have the current receipts for that which are two receipts. Brake pressure is where it is suppose to be, Drives very smooth and nice down the road, a real pleasure. Thanks for all the bids. Any Other questions just feel free to ask.

This is the very last Rolls-Royce Phantom VII
Tue, Jan 31 2017Rolls-Royce built its very last Phantom VII today. The model was first introduced in 2003 and ends with this one-of-a-kind long-wheelbase model that will go to the unnamed Rolls-Royce collector who commissioned it. The car itself is themed around 1930s-era ships, which is in turn a nod to the era of the first Phantom I, launched in 1925. Immediately upon looking at the car's "Blue Velvet" paint scheme, you can see the oceanic influence. The color is accompanied by coach lines with a ship motif, and the tires have white lines to complement it. Inside, the car features the beautiful marquetry wood trim the brand has become known for. The dashboard shows a '30s-era ship with a map of North America and Europe in the background. Further maritime highlights include dash clocks modeled after ship radios, and embroidery on the "Powder Blue" leather that mimics the look of ocean waves. The front dash clock has a movable bezel for different time zones, and Rolls-Royce says the carpeting has been cut to look like a ship's wake. While this generation of the Phantom is at an end, it's by no means the end of the line for the name. We've seen prototypes of the Phantom VIII running around, and Rolls-Royce has openly said that a successor is coming. We expect the new generation will only be available in short- and long-wheelbase sedans to start, and will probably be revealed sometime this year, perhaps as soon as the Geneva Show in March, or as late as the Pebble Beach Concours in August.

BMW preparing two concepts for Villa d'Este
Thu, 20 Mar 2014Every spring, the finest automobiles ever to grace tarmac gather on the shores of Lake Como for the Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este. It's a chance for the most beautiful classics to compete for awards and for automakers and design studios to show off their concept cars under the soft light of the Italian sun. But while most of the vehicles old and new that show up for the concours are ones we've seen before, BMW takes things a step further.
As patron of the concorso d'eleganza for the past ten years, BMW regularly cooks up something new for the glamorous extravaganza. Last year it teamed up with Pininfarina for the Gran Lusso Coupé and revealed it alongside the Concept 90 motorcycle. The year before that came the BMW Zagato Coupe, preceded by the 328 Hommage and the M1 Hommage (pictured above) before it.
The theme for this year's event is the Roaring Twenties. BMW may not have been known back then on the same level as Bugatti or Duesenberg, but Rolls-Royce sure was.
Rolls-Royce SUV codenamed Cullinan
Mon, Mar 2 2015A modern Rolls-Royce saloon may already be the size of some SUVs as it is, but the storied British automaker embarked upon a new dawn two weeks ago when it announced it would proceed with developing its first sport-ute. Only it's not calling it a sport-ute, SUV, crossover, off-roader or anything of the sort. It's calling it a "high-bodied car" (which is pretty much what any crossover is, when it comes down to it) that will drive "effortless... everywhere." And now it has a name. Sorta. The latest news from the UK indicates that the vehicle is being referred to internally as the Cullinan, taking its name from the world's largest diamond gem that adorns the Queen's scepter. Only that's neither the internal codename, strictly speaking, nor is it likely to be its nameplate once it reaches production. The project is codenamed RR31 (apparently as the 31st new model line being developed by the company) and is likely to carry a name more in line with the likes of Wraith, Ghost and Phantom in the brand's spooky nomenclature or draw on a dormant nameplate. The high-riding Rolls is tipped to launch a new alloy architecture for the company that would be unique to Goodwood's products and be rolled out first on the crossover before serving as the starting point for the next Ghost and Phantom families. Size-wise the SUV would slot in between the two, and likely enough in price position as well. Power would likely come from either the 6.6-liter twin-turbo V12 from the Ghost or the larger, older 6.75-liter atmospheric twelve used in the Phantom, but while a diesel was apparently ruled out (primarily due to the fuel's scarcity in certain markets as opposed to the increased NVH levels inherent therein), a hybrid is said to be in the mix. Though it's focused more on exclusivity than it is on volume, Rolls expects the SUV to bring in new customers and expand its production by around 30 percent or so. But that would be nothing new: The vast majority of Wraith and Ghost buyers have been new to the brand. Look for the crossover to launch in 2017, when it promises to crown the emerging class of high-end luxury crossovers and put even those being launched by the likes of Bentley and Maybach to shame.
