Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud III V8 6.2 — 1964

• Mechanical condition

  The engine starts easily and runs well, with a slight tappet sound for the first 20–30 seconds that then disappears. It drives smoothly, the gearbox shifts as it should, the brakes feel solid, and the ride is very comfortable. Recent work includes renovated carburetors, a new double brake head and master cylinder, new brake lines and wheel cylinders, new petrol and windscreen washer pumps, plus an oil filter adapter for easier oil changes. The car has recently passed a new inspection without any remarks and is now inspection-exempt.

• Interior condition

  Interior is very tidy, carrying that wonderful aged English leather smell and feel. The leather seats are in good condition overall, with a 10 cm split on the driver’s seat (see picture). The wooden panels and trims present well, showing only a few small flakes in the varnish. The dashboard and instruments are clean, with some expected wear around the ignition key. Carpets are in good condition, with light wear on the driver’s side, while the headliner is clean and complete with two small holes (see pictures). Equipment includes a heated electric rear window, and all electric windows function correctly, apart from the rear right passenger switch which requires replacement, though the window operates properly from the driver’s panel.

• Exterior condition

  The older renovation has held up well over the years, and the car still presents nicely. The bodywork is straight and clean, with only a small dent on the passenger-side front wing edge, a light dent on the driver’s door, and a small blister near the driver’s windscreen (see pictures). The paintwork is bright and clean, with a few minor touch-ups around the windscreen scuttle panel and a small paint crack on the front wing near the chrome trim. The chrome remains bright and attractive, with only a small dent on the driver’s side corner (see pictures). The underbody is clean and solid with no notable issues. The boot is tidy and includes a complete tool kit

• General condition

  This car is very presentable and has benefited from many hours of recommissioning work carried out by its knowledgeable owner over a four-month period. It is now fully prepared and ready to be enjoyed by its next custodian

General information about the condition of the vehicles .

• At this auction, many vehicles have been included in car collections and have been stored (mothballed) for a long time. For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
• During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends. When you bid at the end of the auction period - and also if you have made an earlier bid - we therefore ask you to read the descriptions carefully, in case something has been changed due to new information.
