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.

Ward's releases 10 Best Interiors list for 2014
Thu, 10 Apr 2014While we're still a ways off from the automotive awards season proper, where things like North American Car and Truck of the Year, Motor Trend's Car of the Year and Car and Driver's Ten Best are named, that doesn't mean there aren't trophies being handed out to deserving automakers. Ward's 10 Best Interiors being one of them.
As the name might imply, the magazine focuses on the very best interior treatments in the US market. Whereas some awards purposely exclude extreme, high-dollar offerings, Ward's considers them - the only requirement is that a vehicle has a "new or significantly redesigned interior."
Ward's offered up the list of winners in simple, alphabetical order, and it only seems fair to do the same:
Rolls-Royce goes glam, celebrates Art Deco heritage in Paris
Thu, 27 Sep 2012Rolls-Royce has used the 2012 Paris Motor Show to pull the covers off its art deco-inspired Phantom saloon, Phantom Drophead Coupé and Ghost models. These three bespoke machines are said to pay homage to the 1925 Paris Exhibition or Exposition Internationale des Arts Décoratifs et Industriels Modernes. Not coincidentally, the phrase 'art deco' was coined at that very show.
These three models are finished in period-correct color schemes and feature details that include mother of pearl and silver inlays and ornamental glassware. According to Giles Taylor, Design Director Rolls-Royce Motor Cars, "Art Deco was defined by theatre, glamour and a sense of excitement. Working to create contemporary interpretations of these classic themes has been enormously rewarding for everyone in my bespoke design team." But of course.
Feel free to check out our live gallery of high-res images above along with the official shots released by Rolls-Royce below. There's also a press release or two waiting for your prying eyes, if you're so inclined.
The cars of notorious dictators
Tue, Apr 21 2015It's good to be the king, at least until your people have had enough of you. Last week, we brought you famous presidential cars. This week, we're going to the opposite end of the political spectrum, looking at what history's mad men drove throughout their repressive and violent regimes. These dictators were absolutely powerful, and absolutely corrupt. More nightmares for their people than rulers, their iron-fisted control gave them the ability to satisfy any wild desire with nearly limitless funds. While they all splurged on luxury goods, cars were a particular passion of many dictators. Cars make a powerful statement to the public about wealth, status and control. It's how you are presented at ground level to your adoring masses or mortal enemies. A custom luxury car with plenty of armor plating reinforced the specialness and "otherness" of the ruler to friend and foe alike. Muammar Gaddafi, Libya, 1969 - 2011 Lybia's President for Life Muammar Gaddafi fancied himself not just a car enthusiast, but a car designer for the masses as well. He supposedly designed a car called the "Saroukh el-Jamahiriya" or Libyan Rocket. It had a 230-horsepower V6 and the nose and tail of a rocket. He was trying to produce a safer car. What makes it safe car? Tough to say. Not a lot was ever released it. Apparently the el-Jamahiriya did come with airbags and collapsible fenders in case of a collision. A spokesperson said "The invention of the safest car in the world is proof that the Libyan revolution is built on the happiness of man." We'll just have to take his word for it. When he wasn't designing his own cars, Gaddafi was ordering up custom rides, large and small. Besides a heavily armored BMW 7 Series and a Mercedes S-Class stretch limo, Gaddafi had this custom Fiat built at a cost of $260,000. The gold in the trim is real gold (of course) and comes with some touches that are pure Gaddafi. For instance, the Fiat badge was replaced with an outline of the continent of Africa, with Libya cut out in green. Rebels seized the Fiat and Gaddafi's other trappings of power after putting an end to Gaddafi's 42 years in control. Jean-Claude "Baby Doc" Duvalier, Haiti, 1971 - 1986 Jean-Claude "Baby Doc" Duvalier was the second-generation dictator of Hati from 1971 to 1986. He made life hell for his people for 15 long years, starting when his father died when he was just 19 years old. Imagine if Justin Beiber was given a tiny island nation to run.
