1984 Rolls Royce Silver Spirit

Highlights 

  • Excellent condition overall 
  • Very well maintained 
  • Great service record

The Appeal 

This wonderful car really embodies the spirit of a 1980’s Rolls Royce, and features the excellent and very suave styling you would expect from this era of the marque. Well appointed with a lot of very modern features for its time, nothing has been left out of this luxury full-size saloon, with all the comfort and class you could want paired with a reliable and very mechanically sound platform.

From the plush carpets and seats, to the CD changer system, to the impeccable ride quality, this fine Rolls Royce is sure to please passengers and driver alike and get you to your destination with an elegance and comfort that is hard to beat.

The History and Paperwork 

  • Manufactured and first registered in 1989
  • V5 present 
  • Full service history 
  • Always kept in storage 
Evidently well loved and looked after, this fine automobile has always been kept in good storage by the current keeper, and the keeper holds a complete service history, all records of MOTs and the couple of small repairs carried out during their ownership. A very nice inclusion is manufacturer build documentation. 

Please note that due to a DVLA error, it is recorded that this car was manufactured in 1984, which is incorrect. It currently has an age-related 'F' prefix plate fitted to reflect its true age and the tenth value in the chassis number ('K') confirms it is of 1989 manufacture according to factory records.

The Interior 

  • Luxurious brown leatherwork 
  • Very clean 
  • Excellent condition for the state mileage 
This regal interior is appointed in luxurious brown leather with contrasting piping and grey carpets that really complete the feel and look of this fine Silver Spirit. The interior brightwork is in good shape, and has evidently been well cared for. The leatherwork on the door cards and dashboard are matched to the seats and have very few blemishes.

With the supple leather set off against the classic Rolls Royce wood trim and black instruments and wheel, this is a brilliant example of the marque in superb condition overall for its age and mileage. An electric window motor has been replaced this year, and everything works as expected.

The boot carpets are in excellent shape, and a multi-deck CD changer is equipped here to compliment the radio and cassette player. Overall this interior is a lovely place to be, and is sure to glide you to your destination in the typical Rolls Royce fashion, in comfort and style.

The Exterior 

  • Brown paint in good condition with fine pinstripe detail 
  • Glass and brightwork in good condition 
  • Excellent Spirit of Ecstasy mascot 
Overall in very nice condition, the brown paint is in good shape and the red pinstripe detail along the sides contrasts very nicely. The detail continues to the red pinstripe on chrome wheel details, adorned with matching Avon tyres. One of the tyres is noted on the latest MOT as starting to crack, however this is very mild currently.

There are very few small blemishes to the paintwork, with the only point of note being a small patch of corrosion on the rear nearside arch. The overall condition is commensurate with the vehicle’s age and mileage, yet is still in very nice condition. The classic big chrome front grill is typical of a Rolls Royce and is a very striking feature, with the lovely Spirit of Ecstasy mascot atop it.

The glasswork appears to be in very good shape with no obvious signs of damage or scratches to be seen. Overall a very nice, stylish vehicle that is a lovely example of the marque and a clean, original representation of the brand.

The Mechanics 

  • Excellent maintenance 
  • Very good condition 
  • Runs very well 
This fine motor is in beautiful shape mechanically. The enormous 6.7L V8 starts up straight away and purrs along smoothly and reliably, and the sublime suspension really embodies that special feel and ride quality that is synonymous with the Rolls Royce name. Clearly a well loved vehicle with an excellent maintenance record and well-stored and looked after. Under the bonnet, the condition continues to impress and is clean and well kept. Moving 
underneath the car, it is clear that despite the relatively high mileage, no expense has been spared over the years to ensure this car is preserved and any worn parts replaced to ensure its long and trouble free service. An excellent example mechanically.

Summary 

Overall a beautiful representation of the marque, very well cared for and evidently loved, this fine automobile is a real head-turner. A very luxurious ride and the fine V8 engine are sure to please, carrying you to your destination in unparalleled luxury and comfort.
