1985 Rolls Royce Silver Spur

Nothing says you have arrived than showing up in a Rolls-Royce Silver Spur, the epitome of high end luxury and
presence. It is still the bench mark for all automotive manufactures and budding millionaires alike. This stunning
piece of automotive artistry is a 3 owner 1985 Rolls Royce Silver Spur with just over 21,200 miles. The original
owner was from GA and drove it until 2004 when they sold it to a dealer in Arizona who used the car for several
months before listing it for sale. That dealer sold this icon in 2005 to an enthusiast in Virginia. The current
owner of this lavish vehicle purchased it several years ago to add to his small collection of English and antique
cars. He is a car collector and the proprietor of a well-respected restoration shop in Monmouth Co, NJ. He is also
a certified appraiser and judge for the AACA and CCCA as well as a concour judge in several prestigious events.
What does this mean to you? A man of this caliber will only want and own the best. This also has a clean CARFAX
showing no accidents or issues.

The overall condition of this Rolls is quite stunning. This is truly as nice in person as it looks in these
pictures. It has excellent silver paint that was redone prior to the current owner. Smooth and glossy, just as you
would expect. The original blue Ever Flex roof is in wonderful condition. The bright trim is equally as nice as the
rest of the exterior. The blue leather interior in well preserved condition. There is only the slightest showing of
wear on the driver’s seat, as expected for a vehicle of its age. The Burl Wood dash, door caps, and rear seat
picnic tables are in excellent condition. Even the upholstery inside the trunk is in great shape. It even has its
original tools. Everything works on this fantastic, well maintained and sorted vehicle. The 6.5 L (411ci) V8 Fuel
Injected engine powers this smooth ride propelling down the highway in absolute comfort. The saying "Nothing rides
like a Rolls" is not just braggadocio. I have had the pleasure of riding in this car on many occasions and I can
tell you, it has to be one of the smoothest vehicles I have ridden in. The suspension and braking system is in
perfect working order. The air conditioning is nice and chilly. The fluids were all recently changed and the tires
were also replaced within the last few years just due to age. It needs nothing but a garage to sleep in. There were
only 6,238 Silver Spurs produced from 1980 thru 1989. I am sure you will have additional questions and I welcome
any and all inquiries before you buy this lovely vehicle. This is an enthusiast owned and well sorted Silver Spur
that needs nothing but a new loving owner. Live the life of luxury and opulence at a fraction of the original cost.

Grey Poupon's Pardon Me Lost Footage ad airs during Oscars

Mon, 25 Feb 2013

Those of you that took our tip and tuned in for last night's Academy Awards may have caught the latest iteration of the famous Grey Poupon commercials, featuring a pair of Rolls-Royce sedans and their condiment-loving stewards. The update to the 1981 commercial was only shown in part on television, however, as the mustard company directed viewers to its website to see the entirety of the Lost Footage spot. Of course if you didn't bother then, you can just scroll down to see the full-length two-minute commercial here.
As you're viewing, note that the Grey Poupon marketers did not, it would appear, get official sanction from Rolls-Royce this time around. While the Rollers in the commercial have all sorts of James Bond-like accouterments, they don't appear to have the official Spirit of Ecstasy hood ornaments, for example, and they have restyled lights and grilles. Check out the new spot below, and see if it stacks up to the iconic Pardon Me original.

Rolls-Royce spotted testing even sportier Wraith

Mon, 10 Nov 2014

A Rolls-Royce is not what you'd typically consider to be "sporty." Luxurious. Stately. Even powerful, packed as they are with twelve-cylinder engines displacing in excess of six and a half liters. The Wraith set out to change that with a sportier package, more rakish profile and an even more potent version of the Ghost's 6.6-liter twin-turbo V12 to make it the fastest and most powerful Rolls-Royce ever made. But now it seems Goodwood is working on an even more aggressive version.
Spotted undergoing testing in parent company BMW's home country of Germany, this particular Wraith might strike you as the same one we've already seen, save for a few telltale details. It may be wearing the same rolling stock as the existing model, with what look like the same tailpipes protruding ever so elegantly around back, but at the bottom of the front bumper and atop the rear trunklid you'll notice more assertive spoilers added on.
To what end, we cannot be certain, but our spotters on the ground seem to think this is a prototype for a more extreme version of the Wraith - possibly inspired by the attention garnered by the Bentley Continental GT3-R. Could we be looking at a Wraith V-Specification like we saw with the Ghost? We'll have to wait to find out for sure, but in the meantime you can scope out the virtually undisguised prototype in the gallery of high-resolution spy shots above.

Rolls-Royce Wraith Eagle VIII commemorates 1919 transatlantic flight

Thu, May 23 2019

Rolls-Royce is building a 50-car limited edition of the Wraith called the Eagle VIII that will debut at the Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este event at the Lake Como. The vehicle commemorates two pilots that completed the first non-stop transatlantic flight 100 years ago. The story behind the flight is fascinating: Captain John Alcock and Lieutenant Arthur Brown flew all the way from St John's in Newfoundland to Clifden, County Galway, Ireland, in a WWI Vickers Vimy bomber. The aircraft's engines were two 20.3-liter Rolls-Royce Eagle VII units, and it appears the engines were the only reliable thing on the flight apart from the crew themselves: the radio and navigation instruments failed right at the beginning of the journey as the wind-driven electrical generator broke, which also meant there was no heating. Because of this, the men had to rely on stars to find Ireland, when dense clouds finally subsided. And it's the clouds and stars that form the centerpieces of the special edition car. The headliner contains 1,183 fibers that light up to form the celestial arrangement at the time of the flight in 1919, with the exact moment when the Vickers plane emerged from the clouds highlighted in red. The decorative wood has silver and copper inlays so it resembles a night-time Earth seen from above. Plaques read "The celestial arrangement at the halfway point 00:17am June 15 1919, 50" 07' Latitude North – 31" Longitude West", and next to the brass speaker grilles, there is a Winston Churchill quote commending the crew, the plane and their unprecedented achievement. "I do not know what we should most admire - their audacity, determination, skill, science, their aeroplane, their Rolls-Royce engines - or their good fortune", it reads. The crash-landing location coordinates are engraved below the dashboard clock. The 1,880-mile ordeal with no heat, occasional snow and a constant barrage of noise from burst exhaust piping took Alcock and Brown 15 hours and 57 minutes, at an average speed of 115 mph. Both aviators were awarded the honor of Knights Commanders of the British Empire by King George V. Alcock later perished after crashing another Vickers plane en route to the Paris Airshow in December 1919. Brown passed away at the age of 62 in 1948. Other detailing on the two-tone Gunmetal and Selby Grey car is also related to the record-breaking Vickers plane, including the black grille vanes that mimic the plane's engine cowling.
