This is an exceptional 13,000-mile 1985 Rolls-Royce Silver Spur that has been a California car since new and is in near showroom condition. Presented in triple black livery, this Silver Spur has been very well maintained by a factory trained Rolls-Royce engineer and truly needs nothing. This Silver Spur is arguably one of the finest extant and would be a wonderful preservation class concours entrant.
There were 671 LHD Silver Spurs produced worldwide in 1985. This Rolls was said to have been acquired by a Southern California studio for transport of their VIP guests. The Spur was faithfully serviced by marque specialist Rick’s Automotive in Granada Hills, CA. By 1990, the Rolls had accumulated 5,100 miles. This Rolls was acquired by its present owner, Mr. Solakian from Northern California, in October 2017 with just over 8,200 miles accumulated since new. He then sent it to the local Rolls-Royce engineer who started his career in Crewe at the factory. The Rolls now has just over 13,000 miles and is in near showroom condition in every way.
The original black livery (Paint Code 9500701) is spectacular, truly appearing as new with minimal evidence of being nearly 40 years old. The paint has perfect shine and luster and is complemented with double Ivory coach stripes. The Black Everflex top is also in excellent condition without the normal sub-surface rust. It also looks in showroom condition. The chrome and stainless are also in fantastic condition with no issues. The white walled radials were installed by the present owner in 2017 and are in excellent condition.
The Black leather interior is in excellent condition with only very minimal creasing and without tears. The leather is also fairly soft and truly exceptional for original 40-year-old leather. The Black Wilton wool carpeting is bound with black leather and has its black mouton sheepskin overlays. The gorgeous burl walnut wood has been refinished and looks perfect. The picnic tables have also been beautifully refinished and the often missing foot rests are present for the rear seat passengers. The two rear mirrored vanities were not refinished and have the normal cracking present. Other than the wood, all of the interior is original and exceptional.
The engine compartment is in concours condition and looks as new. The venerable 6.75 liter V8 performs beautifully and has benefited from the low mileage and consistent servicing. The service records are available for review. The Rolls is complete with its tools, jack, spare and all the owner’s manual supplemental information.
We have this Silver Spur priced well. The JD Power high retail value is $50,200. Certainly, this represents one of the nicest in the world.
