Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud

SALE AGREED An excellent, high quality conversion, carried out about five years ago, carefully replicating the original, well known H. J. Mulliner ‘adaptation’ design. We have a large amount of photos showing a thorough process of restoration & conversion and since completion the car has covered just a small mileage. The Tudor grey and red paintwork, the chrome, the upholstery, woodwork, carpets and hood (fully lined) are all fresh and superb, and the car really does look very impressive, being virtually indistinguishable from an original. Mechanically too, it is all in very good order, having been fully attended to as part of the restoration process. The engine, braking system, suspension, etc, have all been overhauled and the car runs and performs very nicely on the road. The Registration number, RRL 1, belongs to the previous owner and is not included, but is available by separate negotiation. Also available are 1 RRL and 3RRL. However, if all goes to plan, we will be having the registration that the car started life with, 200 MMS, re-allocated, in itself an attractive number, and this will be included as part of the sale. A lovely car throughout, cosmetically and mechanically, ready to use and enjoy.
