The Appeal

The 1949 Rolls-Royce Silver Dawn, an epitome of timeless elegance and opulence, exudes a positively regal presence on the road. Its sleek and distinguished design, characterised by flowing lines and a signature grille, is sure to attract positive attention. 
Under the bonnet, a refined and powerful (for the time) engine awaits, promising a smooth, dignified ride. Inside, a luxurious cabin welcomes occupants with leather and exquisite woodwork, creating an ambiance of refined comfort. 
Whether cruising along grand avenues or traversing winding country lanes, the Silver Dawn glides with unrivalled grace, leaving a trail of admiration in its wake.
This example has been registered in the Netherlands since 2012 and, being white, could make a perfect wedding car. Equally, it would suit a classic enthusiast who is keen to experience a highlight of post war luxury motoring.
