Description

This lot will be auctioned via Iconic Auctioneers, The Classic Sale at the Warwickshire Event Centre on Saturday the 7th of December, Warwickshire Event Centre, CV31 1XN.
Launched in 1962, the Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud III and its Bentley S3 equivalent employed the 6. 2-litre V8 engine introduced on the 'Cloud II/ S2 - though with larger carburettors, new distributor and raised compression ratio
Most obvious among many changes from the preceding models was the adoption of four-headlamp lighting, the absence of sidelights from the wing tops, and a slightly lower radiator shell
From the last year of production, this impressive Cloud III is finished in Silver Mink over Garnet with a classic RR interior in soft grey hides complemented by figured walnut on the dashboard, door cappings, rear picnic tables and vanity mirror surrounds
Originally supplied new by Jack Barclays and some years later was exported to the United States. The car was subsequently reimported by our vendor in 2016 and has been carefully recommissioned during his ownership
We understand that it continues to run well and is supplied with its handbooks, some recent invoices, its V5C, and the current MOT
This magnificent Cloud III is ready once again to discretely whisk its lucky owners and their guests in amazing comfort to their destination and to arrive in the style normally reserved for what was, at the time, ‘The Best Car in the World’
