"A car where most everything appears to be in original condition, all in a pleasant state with mild wear and patina. It’s like a pair of well-broken-in Chelsea boots or a well-used Savile Row suit – you feel at home in it. Despite its size, it is easy to handle and comfortable to travel in."

Description

According to records, this car was sold new in California in January 1984 and arrived in Sweden just five years later. It was registered for road use here on December 8, 1989. The current owner’s father acquired his dream car, a Rolls-Royce, through KVD in August 2019. The car is now being sold by his son.

It has been serviced fairly regularly at, among others, Förenade Bil and Rohdins, and has recently passed inspection and is ready to drive. Mileage shows 12,520, but when the speedometer was converted to km/h it is uncertain whether it was recalibrated from the previous mph reading or restarted from zero. In any case, the car appears to have a relatively low mileage for its age.

The car comes with original books, literature, various receipts and documents, as well as two sets of keys.

This car is equipped with fuel injection and a catalytic converter, which were relatively new features at the time it was manufactured.

Condition

  • Mechanical condition:

    The car starts easily and the engine and drivetrain run smoothly and quietly. During a test drive on a smaller country road, the ride felt stable and pleasant. Everything – including steering, automatic transmission with functioning kickdown, handling, and brakes – worked well.
    It has not been inspected on a lift, but the visible vital components appeared to be in good condition. New battery fitted.

  • Interior condition:

    Nice interior with Everflex to Roof in the original Tan color. Well-preserved leather with comfortable seats front and rear, offering extra legroom. Door panels and trim in good condition. Fine lambswool rugs and footrests, as well as a clean headliner. Steering wheel has been replaced, original included. Controls, gauges, and dashboard in good condition, with nicely preserved wood. All electrics appear to function well. One cigar lighter is missing in a rear door. The AC needs attention, possibly just a refrigerant refill. More recent stereo installed.

  • Exterior condition:

    Nice original paintwork in the somewhat unusual color Walnut Brown Metallic with vinyl roof, showing normal mild wear consistent with age. A few small dents on the bonnet. The vinyl roof is in good condition with a couple of bubbles and some discoloration. Glass, brightwork, trim, emblems, and lighting details all in good condition. Attractive wheels with painted hubcaps. Good tires.

  • General condition:

    The entire car presents at a consistent level, carrying its more than 40 years with dignity. Rolls-Royce, with its engineering, quality, and aura, makes this a delightful car that offers a wonderful and luxurious sense of nostalgia. It is a place where one gladly spends a few hours while the world quietly passes by outside. In the LWB version, the rear seat also provides comfort beyond the ordinary. To travel in a Silver Spirit is a pleasant, seamless, and dignified experience.

Facts about the model

When the Silver Shadow was to be phased out after 15 years of production, it was time for its successor, the Silver Spirit, to take the stage. Much of the earlier model was carried over, but the Silver Spirit received an entirely new body. One detail that drew much attention was that the Spirit of Ecstasy would now retract into the radiator grille when parked or in the event of a theft attempt.

The Mark I had the same V8 engine as the Silver Shadow, producing 175 hp. Initially, the model featured automatic self-levelling suspension from Girling. The gearbox was at first a three-speed automatic. For the 1989 model year, a mild update was introduced as the Mark II.

A total of 18,989 examples of the Silver Spirit and Spur were built between 1980 and 1998.
