1987 Rolls-royce Silver-spur Just 2100 Mi Per Year Original California Classic on 2040-cars
Fremont, California, United States
|
Up for bid is a very rare find a 1987 Rolls- Royce Silver- Spur finished in Acrylic White which a senior Peninsula couple first took delivery of at Martin Swig's Autobritania in San Francisco on 12/31/86. The MSPR on this car 27 years ago was $121,000 and from 1980 to 1989 only 6238 of these hand built motorcars were built In the late 1980's this 1987 Rolls-Royce Silver Spur was the ultimate in motoring luxury and excess. Bigger than just about anything else on the road and powered by Rolls' superlative V8 it was the last of hand built icons from Crewe Chesire England that built the automotive industry in the early years. The special long-wheelbase Silver Spur was the top of the line what is unquestionably the top of the line automobile manufacture. Stretching nearly 20 feet long it's understated yet imposing. Fit and finish are of course exemplary despite it being 27 years old and nothing in the automotive world feels like one of these big heavily insulated doors snapping closed. All automotive paint is shiny but the deep hand rubbed finish on this one is something else entirely as if it was conjured out of thin air right onto the surface. This automobile show's little sign of age and for a car that originally cost the equivalent of a quarter million bucks you definitely got your money's worth on the paint job. Then there's the chrome which is deep and rich that it almost feels cold to the touch and nothing clears traffic like that big Rolls-Royce grille and Sprit of Estsy hood ornament. "Impressive" isn't an impressive enough word for what this car is . You know where a lot of the money went when you climb inside. The seats feel like nothing you've experienced at once soft and supportive and wrapped in fragrant leather hides that were bred for royalty. There's a bit of wear on the driver's seat but the rest of the buttery-soft leather is still fit for show. Dark Wilton Wool carpets are insanely plush and yes that's real wood on the dash and door panels hand crafted by a guy who's been doing it his entire life. It received all the proper accoutrements for the late 80's including A/C power windows and locks and finger tip-light power steering. And as a long-wheelbase model rear seat space rivals a New York apartment complete with foot rest and drop down tray tables. The big 6.75 liter V8 pulls like a steam locomotive and delivers awesome smoothness. Bosch fuel injection makes it reliable too. GM supplied the TH400 3-speed automatic gearbox and the full independent suspension rides like a hovercraft over broken pavement. Even the 4 wheel disc brakes are race car sized and deliver impressive performance that's never abrupt. For the price of a pre owned Kia Optima you could be driving this incredible Rolls-Royce. Don't be afraid of the maintenance and just imagine what the neighbors will think when they see you driving this to work every day or take ultimate UBER entrepreneurship to the next level. This is a unique opportunity to have a world class motorcar for an affordable price.

Trump reportedly says he wants to wipe German cars off the U.S. map
Thu, May 31 2018BERLIN/FRANKFURT — A report that U.S. President Donald Trump has threatened to pursue German carmakers until there are no Mercedes-Benz rolling down New York's Fifth Avenue dented shares in the luxury car manufacturers on Thursday. An excerpt from German magazine Wirtschaftswoche's article, which cited several unnamed European and U.S. diplomats but did not include any direct quotes, could not be independently verified, while a U.S. Embassy spokesman in Berlin referred questions to Washington. The news and current affairs magazine said Trump had told French President Emmanuel Macron in April that he aimed to push German carmakers out of the United States altogether. Macron's administration in Paris declined to comment on the report. The Trump administration last week opened a so-called Section 232 trade investigation into vehicle imports, which could result in a 25 percent tariff on cars on the same "national security" grounds Washington used to impose metals duties in March. This could destroy exports by German carmakers, which control 90 percent of the U.S. premium market and are the biggest European Union exporters of cars to the United States. BMW owns Rolls-Royce, while Daimler has Mercedes-Benz, and Volkswagen controls Bentley, Bugatti, Porsche and Audi. Daimler, BMW and Audi declined comment. Porsche was not immediately available for comment. BMW shares were trading 0.5 percent lower at 0939 GMT, while Daimler and VW's shares were down 1 percent and 1.6 percent respectively, underperforming Germany's blue-chip DAX. Trump has railed against German carmakers before. And in early 2017, in an interview with German newspaper Bild, he said he would impose 35 percent tariffs on imported cars. At the time, the president called Germany a great car producer but said that the business relationship with the United States was an unfair one-way street. Germany's auto industry association VDA says its members exported 657,000 vehicles to North America last year, with total exports of vehicle components, cars, engines, as well as second-hand vehicles totaling 31.2 billion euros in 2016. Imports from the United States to Germany amounted to 7.4 billion euros, meaning a trade deficit of 23.8 billion euros the VDA's latest available figures show. However, German brands also have huge factories in the United States, where they built 804,000 cars last year, VDA said, providing jobs for U.S. workers. Berlin has reacted angrily to the U.S.
Rolls-Royce names new chief executive for North America
Mon, Sep 28 2015Rolls-Royce has announced a changing of the guard in its North American office. Stepping out of his role as North American regional president is Eric Shepherd (pictured). In his place, the uber-luxe British automaker is bringing in Pedro Mota, who comes by way of Porsche Cars North America, where he served as the west coast regional vice president. Mota holds an MBA from European business school INSEAD, and a Master's in electrical engineering from Lisbon Technical University. He'll join Rolls-Royce with almost immediate effect on October 1 to learn the ropes before taking over on January 1, 2016 - the day after Shepherd vacates the office. The company was rather unspecific in disclosing what Shepherd will be doing next, saying only that he'll be staying "within the Rolls-Royce family" in a "new entrepreneurial role in the super-luxury automotive retail sector." The shift in leadership in the North American office at Rolls-Royce comes as the automaker prepares to role out new models. It's now in the process of adding the new Dawn convertible to the Ghost/Wraith family. It's also preparing to launch its first SUV, known internally as project Cullinan, into a burgeoning new market segment for ultra-luxurious crossovers. It's an area with which Mota, having helped move so many Cayennes and helped introduce the new Macan through West Coast dealers, ought to be intimately familiar. Related Video: LEADERSHIP TRANSITION AT ROLLS-ROYCE MOTOR CARS NORTH AMERICA Rolls-Royce Motor Cars has announced that President (North America), Eric Shepherd, has decided to move to a new entrepreneurial role in the super-luxury automotive retail sector within the Rolls-Royce family. Chief Executive, Torsten Mueller-Oetvoes, said, "Eric's move is a big loss to our successful business at Rolls-Royce North America but we are highly supportive of talented managers like Eric pursuing personal business opportunities, particularly when it means they stay within the Rolls-Royce community. Eric's dynamic leadership of our North American operation has been highly effective. He has established a strong team and cohesive network which has led to a substantial strengthening of our business in the region." Shepherd will continue in office as President of Rolls-Royce NA until 31 December 2015. He will be succeeded by Pedro Mota who will join Rolls-Royce NA from Porsche Cars NA where he served as Vice President, Area West.
Rolls-Royce debuts super limited Ghost Mysore edition
Fri, Feb 20 2015Rolls-Royce is celebrating the history of India with its latest, extremely limited edition of the Ghost Extended Wheelbase called the Mysore Collection. Just three of these specially upholstered versions are being made. These Ghosts are dedicated to Mysore, India, and to the Tipu Sultan there in the 18th century. They receive a two-tone blue and silver livery with a pinstripe featuring a stylized peacock running down the side. For the interior, they feature light-colored wood, white leather and blue carpets. However, the most obvious change for this limited edition is the inclusion of a tiger on each headrest. Rolls did make one rather odd decision for this commemoration of India. According to the luxury brand's Facebook post about them, the three special Ghosts are only for sale in Abu Dhabi. Although, the brand says, "In Arabic, Mysore also refers to wealth and power." Rolls-Royce Bespoke Ghost Mysore Collection 'In this world I would rather live two days like a tiger, than two hundred years like a sheep.' Tipu Sultan - 'The Tiger of Mysore.' Tipu Sultan was the ruler of 18th century Mysore in India. In Arabic, Mysore also refers to wealth and power. The Bespoke Ghost Mysore Collection takes inspiration from this, and each of these extended wheelbase models are adorned with symbols of success. Ghost Mysore will be available exclusively in Abu Dhabi. Only three have been created.
