Rolls Royce Silver Shadow II. Hand-built world famous luxury. Feel like a captain of industry at the price of a used Camry.
This Rolls runs and drives excellently. Starts up easily every time. Freshly tuned and ready to go on that special journey. The transmission was just serviced, does not leak, and shifts well. The brake and hydraulic system has been rebuilt and serviced recently; it is functioning perfectly. There are NO WARNING LIGHTS OF ANY KIND lit. The vehicle goes drives on the road very nicely and it feels like the stately Rolls Royce it was built to be.
This is rust a free California car. Its paint shows very nicely, but upon close inspection there are small paint chips and minor paint imperfections here and there. As with all Silver Shadows of this era, there is some cracking of the paint around the windows. More importantly, most all of the paint issues could be solved through a professional detail and paint touch up. With that said, a picture is worth a thousand words and as the recently taken (3-31-13) auction pictures depict, the car looks SUPERB. I am always extra critical of condition when selling on ebay, I have sold a number of cars on ebay and my feedback speaks for itself.
The black upholstery is all leather and looks like it was redone at some point. The leather is still very soft and supple. The dash and door caps wood pieces have been refinished and look excellent. The dash pad has no cracks.
If you are a perfectionist, the car could use a new headliner and the wind lace trim refinished, but these items are very serviceable as is.
The original radio is in the car, but is not hooked up at present. A power antenna will come with the sale.
I am selling this car simply because I have too many cars and am looking to thin out my collection a bit. The car is currently on non-operational status with the California DMV and no back fees are owed. The title is clear and in my name. The vehicle has had the emissions testing completed and comes with a California smog certificate.
The car is sold "as is." I will assist any prospective buyers with a pre-purchase inspection at any reputable shop in the LA area. Please ask any questions prior to bidding. I am happy to take additional pictures of the car for any serious buyer. The car is very close to the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach and I can facilitate transportation there for International shipping.

Rolls-Royce CEO says demand for luxury cars is recovering
Tue, Sep 1 2020LONDON — The chief executive of Rolls-Royce said demand for his company's luxury cars is rebounding, helped by sales in Asia, and he is optimistic about the outlook for next year after the coronavirus pandemic hit consumer confidence and closed dealerships. Torsten Muller-Otvos said the demand meant Rolls-Royce was the first car company to resume car production in the United Kingdom on May 4. "We see a very fruitful business now coming back from Asia, also Europe is coming back on track, the Americas just delivered an excellent July result and August result," the boss of the BMW-owned Rolls-Royce Motor Cars told Reuters. "I am quite optimistic looking into 2021, particularly on the back of a very strong order bank we have already on our books." Muller-Otvos said his company has no plans to move production out of the United Kingdom because of Brexit. "We are committed to Britain. I would even call us being part of the British industrial crown jewels," he said. "For that reason, Rolls-Royce belongs to Britain."
Buyers flipping a Rolls-Royce Spectre won't be tolerated, company says
Mon, Jul 10 2023The act of flipping cars — that is, buying a limited or highly desirable model and then reselling it for big profit — wonÂ’t go unnoticed, or be tolerated, by Rolls-Royce. Specifically referring to the new Rolls Spectre — the first electric car from the brand — Rolls-Royce CEO Torsten Muller-Otvos told Car Dealer that any customer who sells or try to sell one will be blacklisted for life if he attempts to buy another from a dealer. Speaking at the launch of the new car in California, he said: ‘I can tell you we are really sanitizing the need to prove who you are, what you want to do with the car – you need to qualify for a car and then you might get a slot for an order.” But those who violate the policy and resell the vehicle at a higher price are “going immediately on a blacklist and this is it – you will never ever have the chance to acquire again.Â’ The super-luxe Spectre is to open its order books soon with deliveries to start in the autumn. Base price in the UK is about $425,000. The response from some dealers in Britain, who say the inflated price resales are legal, was resentment at Rolls. London dealer Tom Hartle, known for selling secondhand Rolls-Royce models, said that he has already agreed to collect GBP50,000 ($65,000) premiums for two Spectres. He said he will have a Spectre for sale at his used-car dealership "within two weeks of it being launched.” ”I do not think it is fair for carmakers to tell customers who have spent close to half a million pounds on a car what they can do with it,” he told Car Dealer. Last year, General Motors said it would ban flippers "from placing future sold orders or reservations if the vehicle is resold within the first 12 months of ownership." Those high-demand products were the Corvette Z06, the Cadillac Escalade-V, and the GMC Hummer EV. And years ago, Ford famously sued wrestler and actor John Cena, who flipped a Ford GT in violation of his purchase contract. This content is hosted by a third party.

"To do this, “ Muller-Otvos said, “we have conceived the most demanding testing program in Rolls-RoyceÂ’s history. We will cover 2.5 million kilometers – a simulation of more than 400 years of use for a Rolls-Royce, on average – and we will travel to all four corners of the world to push this new motor car to the limit,"
