DO  NOT GO THROUGH LIFE WITHOUT OWNING AND DRIVING A TRUE ROLLS-ROYCE! 

This beautiful 1989, in the R-R brochure color, is in near pristine condition. Garaged and covered all its life, its wood is absolutely perfect. The chrome glistens. The Everflex top is in superb condition. Within the past year it has had its services (oil and filter, transmission check, brake check, new thermostat, upper hose (lower hose supplied) and proper coolant, new rear suspension spheres, new battery) and many other small details attended to.The hides are in very good condition with no cuts, tears or significant wear. (The car was reportedly chauffeur-driven - mainly used for transporting entertainment-type clients around by a New York City area attorney.) No rust, of course.

The custom floor mats are new and -if you want them, the old mouton/lambs wool ones are available but wlll need cleaned and new backing..The car has a custom-made super-soft R-R branded car cover which was used even while it was garaged. Luisi wood steering wheel. (The original black steering wheel is also included.) All manuals, tools,factory spares are with the car.

What does it need?  The cruise control is inoperative. (Not checked or diagnosed as of this time.)  The car could use a professional-type wax and polish to bring out the mile-deep shine of the gorgeous royal blue paintwork even more.

SOME OTHER GOODIES FOR YOU ---

This R-R comes with a few extras... like four new Vogue WSW/Gold-Stripe Tires (Unmounted) -the existing Michelins are still great, but are a few years old. Spare maintenance items such as oil filters, hydraulic fluid, wiper blades, front and rear brake pads (car noes not need new brakes) - incidentally, the front rotors have two calipers each! Touch up paints, seat dye (never used,) a spare front seat back - needs re-dyeing, spare gear selector, new lower radiator hose and lots of other accumulated stuff like wheel covers, instruments, etc.

NOTE: Every year or so I find and buy a special car, fix anything it needs, drive and enjoy it for awhile---then move on. This is one of those. Take a look at my feedback as a Seller to see what buyers of some of my other recent toys have to say. 

Vehicle is for sale locally so bid strongly if you want it. We reserve the right to end this listing at any time.

Rolls-Royce Spectre EV is revealed, and it's production-bound

Wed, Sep 29 2021

Rolls-Royce has formally announced plans to introduce a battery-electric coupe. Dubbed Spectre, the British super-luxe automaker's first EV will begin deliveries in late 2023, which has now become a key milestone in Rolls-Royce's roadmap to full electrification by the end of the decade. Apart from the name and layout, Rolls is being stingy with specifics, telling us only that, despite what appears to be a somewhat familiar silhouette, this is an all-new model built on the company's latest architecture, like Phantom, Ghost and Cullinan. Spectre is not merely a derivative of the Wraith, RR says. And with good reason, because Wraith was engineered around the essence of its V12. Spectre's character, we expect, will be defined by its near-silent, vibration-free electric powertrain, which makes for a very different acoustic backdrop, but that's a challenge Rolls-Royce engineers are prepared – arguably even predestined – to overcome. Even more than a century ago, both Charles Rolls and Sir Henry Royce were fascinated by electric powertrains. The automaker even shared some of Rolls' impressions of an EV he drove in April 1900 from Connecticut-based manufacturer Columbia:  "The electric car is perfectly noiseless and clean," he noted. "There is no smell or vibration, and they should become very useful when fixed charging stations can be arranged. But for now, I do not anticipate that they will be very serviceable – at least for many years to come." View 9 Photos "Today, 117 years later, I am proud to announce that Rolls-Royce is to begin the on-road testing programme for an extraordinary new product that will elevate the global all-electric car revolution and create the first – and finest – super-luxury product of its type," said Rolls-Royce CEO Torsten Muller-Otvos.  "Charles RollsÂ’ prophecy has been the subject of constant consideration during the marqueÂ’s Goodwood era," he said. "But we have not been satisfied that available technology could support the Rolls-Royce experience. Until now." If there's any coherent theme to the message coming from Rolls-Royce, it's that the company intends to do right by its first EV. To that end,it  says it will develop Spectre "in plain sight," holding it to some of the most stringent development requirements of any vehicle that has carried the Spirit of Ecstasy.  "To do this, we have conceived the most demanding testing programme in Rolls-RoyceÂ’s history.

Rolls-Royce Wraith convertible spied sliding in the snow

Wed, Mar 18 2015

Rolls-Royce may be on the verge of producing its first crossover, but it's a different prototype we're looking at here, frolicking in the snow. It's the convertible version of the Wraith, which Rolls-Royce is preparing to join the existing fastback coupe and the Ghost sedan in its "entry-level" lineup. Only we don't expect it to be called the Wraith Drophead Coupe like its larger counterpart, the Phantom DHC, but to go with an entirely different name (just as the aforementioned fastback took to distinguish itself from the sedan). Expect Goodwood to pull another suitably poltergeist-related nameplate from its archives (or from the netherworld) to slap on its new drop-top. Otherwise, we can expect the Wraith convertible (or whatever it's ultimately called) to closely mirror its fixed-roof counterpart, complete with suicide doors and a 6.6-liter twin-turbo V12, when it arrives sometime in the middle of next year.

Rolls-Royce Wraith revealed, ready to battle Bentley

Mon, 04 Mar 2013

Bentley may have rounded out the redesign of its Continental line of cars with the new Flying Spur four-door's debut at this week's Geneva Motor Show, but Rolls-Royce has shown up in Switzerland with the Wraith, a GT coupe version of the Ghost sedan that moves the brand one step closer to having an answer for everything that wears a Flying B.
The Wraith's natural combatant would be Bentley's Continental GT Coupe, though as all Rollers come in orders of magnitude more expensive than their already costly competitors from Crewe, the new coupe's €245,000 initial starting price will be $100k USD more than the base price of the most expensive Continental, a GT Speed coupe.
What your CEO bonus money will get you is a 624-bhp V12 engine cranking out 590 pound-feet of torque. The sprint to 60 miles per hour will pass by in 4.4 seconds, with a unique 8-speed ZF automatic transmission snapping off shifts using a new Satellite Aided Transmission technology that works with GPS to pre-select the right gear for not only the road you're on, but the road you'll be coming up on ahead.
