Up for auction is a 1974 Rolls Royce Silvershadow in running condition. This car belongs to a friend of mine who bought the car in 2009 just as a toy to drive around in parades. He bought another Rolls and this one was moved outside to where a tree branch fell on the car and made a little dent on the drivers rear fender and a scratch on the hood as you can see in the pictures. I started storing the car last year for him and it has been sitting in my garage since then. He has finally decided that he has too many cars so he asked me to go ahead and sell this one. The car has always started right up when I have needed to move it, it moves freely. I have only driven it around my neighborhood, I have never had it out on the interstate but it rides well. He had the brakes done shortly before I began storing it, they seem to work fine. I do not know alot about these cars so I tried to take enough pictures so that you can see the condition of the car. As I said, the car starts right up and the transmission engages properly without any issues. I have noticed recently that when you start the car there is blue oil smoke from the exhaust. I believe this is being caused by oil getting into the combustion chambers because the valve guides have gotten dry due to the car siting so much and not being run. I also believe that if you took the car and drove it for awhile this problem would clear up. It doesn't leak water or overheat, a couple of the power windows don't work, could be a switch, I don't know. The drivers window works, that really is the only one I have had down. My friend had a CD player put in but he can't find the detachable face plate. There are some cosmetic issues with trim pieces,and the kick panels will need some attention, but overall the car is in pretty good shape for a nearly 40 year old vehicle. The obvious advantage is that the car is drivable and my friend has put a very reasonable reserve on the car. Hopefully you can see from the pictures that the interior and door panels are still in very good condition and the head liner is intact. If you have any further questions I will do my best to answer them. The car is being sold "as is" without any type of warranty being implied or stated due to the age of the car. If you are within 100 miles of my zip code, 30043, I will put the car on a trailer and deliver it for free. If you need the car delivered to a shipper, I will be glad to do that but you must make all the arrangements and the vehicle must be paid for before it will be delivered or dropped off. I will do a $500 non-refundable deposit. Thanks for looking.

Rolls-Royce is officially in the SUV business
Wed, Feb 18 2015This might be the most brand-appropriate announcement ever for a previously unthinkinable vehicle, complete with a press release titled like a royal edict. After saying a month ago that it would decide on building an mixed-terrain hauler by the end of the year, Rolls-Royce issued a press release entitled, "An Open Letter from the Chairman and Chief Executive of Rolls-Royce Motor Cars on the Subject of a New Rolls-Royce." Let's hold on a second while the sound of trumpets dies down. Nowhere among its 453 words will you find the acronym "SUV," nor the words "sport" or "utility." You will find talk of "an all-new Rolls-Royce," "a high-bodied car, with an all-new aluminum architecture," "a vehicle that can cross any terrain," and references to Lawrence of Arabia traversing mountain ranges and "the vastness of unexplored deserts" and the founders' "rigorous overland adventures," complete with sepia photos. And then there's this: "History sets our precedent and our future calls us to action." Let's hold on a second while the applause dies down. We don't know when we'll see it - Rolls-Royce says it plans to take its time getting it right, to create a vehicle that is "Effortless ... Everywhere." We would believe any date we read about, though; not even two years ago we were told a Rolls-Royce SUV hadn't even been discussed since such a vehicle couldn't fit into the brand ethos, not even a year ago the company's head designer had narrowed it down to "a shooting brake, not a crossover with a sloping roof. A proper SUV," with the Ghost platform for support and a speculated release date of 2017. If they brought a near-production-ready sample to the Frankfurt Motor Show this year, we wouldn't be surprised. We sincerely hope that, like the image, it comes with a man to shovel any obstacles out of the way. Gather round the dais and enjoy the press release below. It's a whole new world.

Since then, we have set a new benchmark for what a super-luxury car should be – unique, hand-crafted, beautiful and rare. Often imitated, Phantom has never been equalled and continues to be hailed as 'The Best Car in the World' by our customers and media alike.
Senna director working on biopic about Rolls-Royce founders
Sat, Jan 30 2016Asif Kapadia, the director of the amazing motorsports documentary Senna, has signed on to helm Silver Ghost, a film about the earliest days of Rolls-Royce. Martin Scorsese is among the movie's producers, and Lord Richard Attenborough was involved with the project before his death. Silver Ghost would tell the story of Charles Rolls and Henry Royce at the beginning of the 20th century. Automotive pioneer Lord John Douglas-Scott Montagu and his wife would also have roles. It seems that the film will involve the story of how Montagu's mistress, Eleanor Velasco Thornton, inspired the iconic Spirit of Ecstasy hood ornament. "What struck me when I read Silver Ghost was how this true story weaves together the lives of five remarkable people that changed the destiny of the Western world and I am delighted to be working together with the legendary filmmaker Martin Scorsese and Anthony Haas to bring it to the screen," Kapadia said in the announcement. "Most of the filming is due to take place in England and the intention is for production to begin later this year," project spokesperson Brigitte Hill told Autoblog. She wouldn't unveil anything about the cast at this stage, understandably. We first heard about Silver Ghost in 2012 when Scorsese and Attenborough were working on it. They reportedly had a script from Goldeneye screenwriter Jeffrey Caine and playwright Sharman Macdonald. Silver Ghost is among several automotive biopics that could arrive in cinemas. A Ferruccio Lamborghini film might start shooting this summer, and Robert De Niro has a Ferrari movie in the works. Leonardo Di Caprio also already has the big-screen rights to a future book about the Volkswagen diesel scandal. That's a huge crop of car movies, and we couldn't be more excited about it.

Even in a down economy, Rolls-Royce is on a roll
Wed, 05 Dec 2012Limited Volume, Big Margins Spell Success
Bigger isn't always better, especially when it comes to selling super luxury. Rolls-Royce CEO Torsten Müller-Ötvös expects the British automaker to again post a record year, despite the economic troubles in Europe and weak growth in both the US and China.
"It is not all doom and gloom out there," Müller-Ötvös explains, noting that the declining sales in Europe and elsewhere have been offset by good performance for the marque in the Middle East, Japan, Singapore, Hong Kong and Russia.
