HISTORY FILE:
This Silver Shadow II was first registered on the 18th August 1978. Not a huge amount is known about her early life, having seemingly very discreet & private owners from new. The car has had just five previous keepers in total, covering 142k miles in her 46 years.
In 1998, SRH34727 entered into single family ownership. First owned by one brother & then passing into another brothers hands when he passed away in 2007. The car was recommissioned by a marque specialist in late '07 before a family trip to rural Southern Ireland. The Rolls providing a reported sterling & faultless service over the 2000 mile run! Upon MoT expiry in late 2008, she was stored off road & remained there ever since. The decision has now been made to allow the Silver Shadow to leave family ownership after nearly 30 years, due to a long term poor health diagnosis.
SUMMARY:
Complete & unrestored examples of the Silver Shadow series are now getting very thin on the ground. Optioned in a stunning period colour scheme, she will continue to rise in appreciation
