Cleanest And Best Maintained Silver Spur, Rare Burgundy Color! on 2040-cars
Palm Coast, Florida, United States
READ THIS BEFORE YOU BUY A ROLLS Or BENTLEY. This is the cleanest and best maintained Silver Spur you will find on the market. See photo of the original sticker. If you have never owned one of these, there is a lot to know before making a purchase...First and foremost, low mileage means nothing on these cars. It is all about maintenance. Before you buy one of these make sure you know what you are getting into. If you find one with 40,000 miles on it but it has had 7 owners....RUN!!!. It means that the previous owners did not want to put any money into the maintenance of it and it surely needs a lot of TLC. You will be buying a nightmare....
I bought this car from a friend in Tampa, and he bought it from a fellow Rolls lover that is a his friend in Miami.He was the original owner. Intermediate owner stated: I had all the maintenance records when I bought it. This car has only been out of the state of Florida twice when I drove it to Georgia. It has never seen snow or salted roads. The under carriage is in perfect condition.
These cars have a braking system with a secondary back up system ( second set of front calipers ) and a ride control system that all operate off of a very complex configuration of spheres full of mineral oil and hydrogen. ( I totally redid the system - about $5000.00 at the dealer )
at 75K miles, i put the car up on blocks. Because they can nickel and dime you and quite frankly drive you crazy, I did a major rebuild all at one time. Here is what was done:
Replaced all belts rebuilt AC including new compressor replaced the Plenum Gaskets and all vapor lines on the top of the motor. This has to be done on all of them or they will leak air and never idle properly. ( If you find one that idles up and down slightly, this is why.) Rebuilt and replaced entire mineral oil system ( about $5000.00 as mentioned earlier ) Replaced all brake pads with OEM pads Removed and turned all 4 rotors ( this is a 2 day job by the way ) Rebuilt all 6 Calipers ( yes, there are 2 sets of rotors on each front wheel and 1 set on the rears - There are only 2 guys in the country that are known for rebuilding these )
Replaced the rack and pinion with the Bentley Rack ( this is bigger and a little tighter than the original - highly recommended as it makes the car much safer and more responsive )
Replaced triangle bushings.
Replaced compliance bushings
Replaced plug wires with thicker silicone wires much better performance than the old thin ones
Replaced spark plugs with NGK OEM plugs ( shipped in from England )
Replaced tires with OEM Goodyear Eagle GA tires - most Rolls now have replacement tires that do not have a strong enough side walls to support the weight of this car. The result is a mushy ride
Removed and replaced all fluids including the differential, Transmission, Radiator.
Rebuilt all wheel bearings and repacked with the appropriate rolls lubricant.
Rebuilt shock tubes - these are little hidden green tubes that most people don't know exist, but are critical to the stability of the rear of the car
Rebuilt trunk latch mechanism
Brand new Sheepskin proper matching floor mats ( $2000.00 )
The things above would have cost about $18,000.00 at a Rolls Dealer - This is why is is is so critical to really understand this car before you buy one. There is nothing else like them. They are incredible, but it takes the right person to own one. Fortunately, this one is ready for another 80K miles. There are no guarantees but I have taken away most of the potential problems you could have with owning one of these for a long-time.
Installed an Alpine Stereo system with 4 Focal midrange and tweeter 2 piece speakers in each door as well as a 12" subwoofer in the trunk. ( About $3-4K worth of Stereo )
I still have all the original stereo equipment that came with the care ( an alpine tape deck ) - We were able to use the existing cd changer as it is compatible with the new Alpine that is in the car.
The car came with 2 cell phones - one in each center console front and back. I have them as well. I have all orginal parts for the car including the manuals in perfect condition.
NADA Average retail on this car is $60K. If I sold it for $50K it would be a bargain, but I will let it go for $38,999 obo for a quick sale.

New Rolls-Royce Cullinan spied with production-spec lighting
Mon, Nov 20 2017Few brands ooze luxury like Rolls-Royce. Like Rolex, the name Rolls-Royce conjures up an image of opulence and a certain level of refinement. Just look at all the details on the new 2018 Rolls-Royce Phantom. This hard-earned reputation is well-deserved. Still, there's an SUV-sized gap in the automaker's lineup. Crossovers are selling like mad and are easy money for any automaker. Fellow ultra-lux automaker Bentley has already thrown its hat into the ring with the Bentayga. Rolls-Royce's entrant, the Cullinan, looks to be nearly ready for production. We've seen plenty of spy photos of the Cullinan, with each batch revealing more and more. Hell, Rolls-Royce itself anticipated these leaks and released a couple of highly camouflaged official photos. These new photos show off the A- and B-pillars as well as part of the roof. It's not much, but it is more than we've seen until now. The rear end also looks to be much further along in development than before. This is our first look at what appears to be production-spec rectangular taillights. The Cullinan will share a platform with the Phantom, so expect plenty of shared parts. That means the Cullinan will likely get Rolls-Royce's 6.75-liter twin-turbo V12 and eight-speed automatic. The 563 horsepower would be down compared to the Bentley Bentayga, but no one buys a Rolls-Royce for pure performance. A hybrid powertrain taken from the BMW 7 Series is also likely. Look for the wraps to come off the Cullinan sometime in the next few months. Related Video:
Check out Rolls-Royce's totally awesome AWD mule
Tue, Apr 7 2015No, this isn't just a super badass Phantom. The car you see here – codenamed Project Cullinan – is an early development mule for the new all-wheel-drive suspension system that will eventually be found in Rolls-Royce's upcoming SUV. It's made up of a shortened Phantom body, looks totally murdered out, and has a huge freaking wing on the back. We love it. Of course, Rolls-Royce properly poo-poos any similarities between this mule and the eventual production model. "The body may hint at the size of the new car, but it features no design aspects of the eventual high-sided, all-terrain motor car announced by Rolls-Royce Motor Cars in February this year," the company said in a press release. The end goal of this mule is to create "a final all-wheel-drive system that delivers Rolls-Royce's hallmark 'magic-carpet' ride not only on the road, but off-road too." Screw the SUV. We'll take one as-is. PROJECT CULLINAN BEGINS DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMME AS ENGINEERING MULE APPEARS IN PUBLIC In its open letter on 18 February this year, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars gave an undertaking to inform stakeholders of the progress of Project Cullinan. Keeping this promise, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars has today published photographs depicting the first key milestone in the vehicle's development programme. The photographs are of the first engineering mule, which will be seen on public roads this week. This early engineering mule, based on a shortened Phantom Series II body, has been created purely to begin the development of an all-wheel drive suspension system that will deliver a ride that will be Effortless ... Everywhere. The body may hint at the size of the new car, but it features no design aspects of the eventual high-sided, all-terrain motor car announced by Rolls-Royce Motor Cars in February this year. The mule rides on the first iteration of an all-new suspension that will assist Rolls-Royce engineers in developing a final all-wheel drive system that delivers Rolls-Royce's hallmark "magic-carpet" ride not only on the road, but off-road too. The first series of tests will focus on Project Cullinan's on-road behaviour from suspension throw to high-bodied stability, and will test the new suspension across all types of international road surface specification at test facilities, as well as on public roads. Test surfaces will include; Belgian Pave, cobblestones, corrugated concrete, noise development and measurement surfaces, resonance road, and acceleration bumps.
So, how do you actually pronounce that automaker's name?
Thu, Jan 21 2016You probably have that friend who always says Porsche wrong, or maybe it's someone who keeps reminding you it's actually two syllables. Whichever side of the pronunciation debate you fall on, you'll find someone to root for in the video above. And before you ask, this was all the video team's idea. So don't get mad at me for being the voice of reason. BMW Chevrolet Hyundai Nissan Rolls-Royce Videos Original Video nissan qashqai
