Lot details

Make: ROLLS ROYCE
Model: SILVER SHADOW II
Registration: EMV 465T
Engine Size (cc): 6750
Year of Manufacture: 1978
Date First Registered: 01/01/1979
Current V5: YES
Location: PICKERING

Current V5 present, paperwork includes original book pack with handbooks, service book with 29 entries, old V5 and MOT history.

The vendor has provided the following:

BUILT 1978 interestingly registered 01 01 1979
Finished in Rolls Royce metallic walnut with a dark cream ever flex vinyl-covered roof cream leather upholstery and cream carpets and footrests with matching lambswool over mats fine mid tonewood veneers to the fascia and door caps. All of which is original and in extremely good condition. It even has the optional matching Phone tray for the central console still present. Close inspection will undoubtedly reveal the odd blemish here and there as one would expect in a forty-two-year-old car that is in use. Everything on the car works as it should including the heating and air conditioning and all instruments and radio and electric aerial and windows. The large tools are present and also correct. I do have a set of small tools should the new owner wish to purchase them.
It would appear from documents that the car had four owners in its early years but was owed from 1987 - 2016 by the next owner it was then sold for its number plate but not used until bought by the present owner and recommissioned with a new battery, tyres comprehensive service and fitted with LPG thus making the car very usable and extremely economical in the present climate. In the present owner's care, the car has attended local shows and rallies completing the Jimmy Guthrie memorial run amongst others. There is a fairly comprehensive service history the car always maintained by HR OWEN and its records are fully complete between 2000-2016
