1955 Rolls Royce Silver Dawn "Lightweight" Saloon by H.J.Mulliner
~ This is a truly exclusive offering of this 1-Off Silver Dawn...there's only one ! ~
~ This is the very last Silver Dawn Chassis (LSVJ133) ever produced ! ~
~ This is the only Lightweight "Alloy" Mulliner made Silver Dawn produced ! ~
The most desirable cars today for the serious collector seem to be from the big three...Ferrari, Mercedes or Rolls Royce. They have to be either a 1-off
Custom "Coach Built" car or ultra rare low production cars made from the 30's thru the 60's. The last pinnacle on the investment podium are special cars
that are made from Aluminum. The 300SL & the 275 GTB/4 have proven to be worth 3-4 times more than its steel counterparts. This wonderful Rolls Royce we
have on offer is one of those perfect cars that have all the right boxes checked on your wish list. It is an all "Alloy" bodied Silver Dawn specially made
for The Bowes Builder Corporation in 1955 to their specifications. This is a very well known Silver Dawn amongst the Rolls Royce community. It is a US
spec delivery with Left Hand Drive on what is the very last Silver Dawn chassis ever produced & the only "Lightweight" Silver Dawn made by H.J.Mulliner.
Known as "LSVJ133", it was made by H.J.Mulliner & Co.Ltd. to a design that took the rather bland steel Silver Dawn platform to the next iconic level in
Rolls Royce's future designs. Made from hand formed Aluminum, its become one of the Sportiest Saloons ever produced. Its Shell Gray over Black Pearl
Coachwork is absolutly breathtaking. Its Cream Leather interior is stunning. It is equipped as follows from its original Build Sheet: It has a very rare,
huge Factory sliding Sunroof. It has an optional picnic set containing a lunchbox, plates, thermos & matching silverware mounted in a sliding access door
inside the drivers door. It has a crystal decanter & set of 4 shot glasses (missing 1) in the front passenger door, also inside a sliding access door.
It has a set of back seat wooden picnic tables mounted behind the front seat. It still retains it's original notebook, comb & accessories mounted in
areas around the back seat. It has it's original tool tray covering its factory Kinsman Tyre Pump system. It has a 6 piece set of fitted bags by "Velation
Planned Luggage". It is also equipped with Air Conditioning with wooden vents under the dash as well as a modern Blaupunkt AM/FM/Cassette Radio.Please note that we have & are currently spending well over $5K. in recent needed maintenance from its last slumber to make sure this Gorgeous & Sporty Silver Dawn doesn't disappoint...
It was completely restored to as new in c.1989. It still appears in a wonderful state & shows only slight use & very few miles since. The odometer states
it has only 37K original miles from new.It also makes an appearance in "Rolls Royce, the Elegance Continues" by Lawrence
Dalton & "Silver Dawns & Silver Wraiths" by Bernard King. This is a must have for any serious Rolls Royce collector. Fantastic Documentation from day
one straight from the Rolls Royce Foundation stating this chassis was meant for a Bentley, but was decided to make it a big splash & designated it to
be a Roller instead. Please notice the hand written Certicard, both front & rear are loaded with all of the 1st owners want list.
Then notice the factory specs Works instruction build sheet & the copy of the ledger showing LSVJ133 as being the last chassis produced. This has to be one
of the most modern designs in 1955, of a very special optioned Lightweight Silver Dawn along with a ton of documentation to back it up. Please consider this
1-off Alloy Bodied Rolls that sports the last Dawn Chassis in which ended one of the most exclusive & exciting eras in Rolls Royce history.

For seven years, Rolls-Royce got by on the Phantom line alone, expanding on the original saloon with a long-wheelbase version, a coupe and the convertible. But now that the Ghost is part of the family, Goodwood seems to be following a similar expansion. What started with the Ghost sedan has since been joined by the extended-wheelbase model and the Wraith fastback coupe. And now we're receiving spy shots of a Wraith-based convertible undergoing testing. Potentially to be called the Wraith Drophead Coupe like its larger Phantom-based counterpart, the cabrio is likely to borrow much from the Wraith fastback - including its 6.6-liter twin-turbo V12 producing 624 horsepower and 590 pound-feet of torque - but with a folding cloth roof mechanism to let the wind and engine note in, although the prototype pictured here is wearing a makeshift hardtop.

The British automotive industry has produced everything from high-production econo-commuters to staggeringly luxurious oligarch-wagons, along the way winning plenty of races and building plenty of beautiful machines. The original Mini led directly to the past half-century of transverse-engine, front-wheel-drive cars built everywhere, the MGB put the sporty little convertible into everyone's reach, and the Morris Oxford became the most beloved motor vehicle in India. So many to choose from, but we want you to pick one. What will it be? Related Video:

BMW is working to fix a cyber-security flaw that has left 2.2 million vehicles worldwide vulnerable to hackers. Cars equipped with the automaker's Connected Drive remote-services system are affected, according to the German Automobile Association (ADAC), which first discovered the problem. Researchers found they could lock and unlock car doors by mimicking mobile communications and sending phony signals to a SIM card installed in affected vehicles. An attack could be launched "within minutes" of accessing the system without the perpetrators leaving a trace, according to their report, in part because once they had gained access to the network, the communications were not secure. In response to the security gap, BMW says it has been upgrading software via over-the-air updates over the past week, so no visits to dealerships are needed to remedy the security hole. In fact, owners of affected cars may not have even noticed the updates taking place. The problem affects BMW, Rolls-Royce and MINI vehicles equipped with Connected Drive since 2010. Flaws were first reported to BMW last year by ADAC, which is the country's equivalent of AAA. ADAC says it withheld a public announcement until the car company could address the problem. While BMW has pushed the software patch to most affected vehicles, the organization said it's possible some at cars in the United States had not yet been updated. BMW did not respond to a request for comment Monday. In a written statement, the automaker said it knows of no real-world breaches. 2015 Off To Dubious Start The hack could raise the eyebrows of industry leaders: Cars are now the equivalent of mobile computers and cyber-security experts have been warning that the auto industry has been slow to close its security holes. BMW's breach marks the second time in 2015 that researchers have found a popular automotive feature with little or no security precautions. Last month, experts said a popular device made by Progressive Insurance that allows motorists to track their driving habits contained no security whatsoever. Like the Connected Drive smart-phone app, many automotive components and infotainment features were conceived and produced at a time when industry executives never considered the possibility someone might want to hack into them. But increased connectivity brings increased risk. Going forward, BMW says its Connected Drive features will now operate by using encrypted communications via the HTTPS protocol.
