Beschreibung

This Silver Shadow was imported to Sweden in 1986. Since then, it has had 5 owners in Sweden. The current owner is a car collector and has decided to let the car move on, as he feels it's a shame for it to remain stationary. He had the car undergo a thorough inspection, and it was approved by the vehicle inspection in April 2023. According to vintage vehicle regulations, it is now exempt from periodic inspection.

The speedometer is graduated in both miles and kilometers, with the odometer in miles. It currently reads 1,397 miles, which is approximately 225 Swedish miles. The total mileage is unknown. The fact that the car is right-hand drive adds to its English and exotic feel, in a positive way.

    There are some stone chips on the front and a few areas where the clear coat has worn off, most notably on the left front fender. Otherwise, the paint is in good used condition. Refer to the pictures. There's a minor rust damage at the bottom of the right front fender, as well as on the rear bumper's underplate on the left side. There's also early-stage surface rust on the left sill. See the pictures. None of these sheet metal damages appear to be extensive, but they will need attention in the long run. There's a slight indentation on the rear bumper right where the decal is placed. See the picture.

  • Zustand gesamt:

    Silver Shadow MKI in used condition with some minor imperfections. Presents a favorable overall impression considering its 50-year age.

Fakten zum Modell

Rolls-Royce has a rich tradition of custom-built carriages. When the Silver Shadow was introduced in 1965, it marked a groundbreaking move in a conservative world. The Silver Shadow served as a bridge between the old and the new. It outsold any previous Rolls-Royce model, and in 15 years, more cars were sold than Rolls-Royce had managed to produce since its inception in 1904.

Behind the Silver Shadow was an extensive development effort that culminated in one of the world's best cars at the time. It featured a self-supporting body, a significant reduction in size, and modern technologies such as front disc brakes, independent suspension, and automatic level control through a hydraulic system, produced under license from Citroën. The decision to make the cars smaller and incorporate more driver-assist and enjoyment technologies was driven by the intention for these vehicles to be driven by owners themselves rather than private chauffeurs.

During its presentation at the London Motor Show at Earls Court in the fall of 1965, the Silver Shadow and Bentley T became major talking points. The crowds in the exhibition halls were immense. As sales gained momentum in the spring of 1966 and more automotive journalists and owners had a chance to drive the new vehicles, the response was highly positive.

Over time, there were both upgrades and improvements. Different body lengths were produced, open-top cars and coupe versions were introduced. However, with the adoption of self-supporting bodies, it became harder to build special models by external firms as had been done previously. In total, 41,513 cars based on the Silver Shadow platform were manufactured between 1965 and 1995.
