Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow II

Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow II

- When things don't happen right away, remember it takes six months to build a Rolls Royce; 13 hours to build a Toyota -

A model that played an important role in the success of Rolls Royce; the Silver Shadow. The silver shadow succeeded the silver cloud (silver could) with an entirely new design. The Rolls was first shown in Paris in 1965. It was eventually marketed in various appearances until 1985. It was immensely popular from launch. So popular, in fact, that there was a queue of no less than two years to select one new from the factory. This also ensured that the two-year-old models fetched as much as they sold new.

Our Cool Classic is of the last generation; the Silver Shadow II. It could be recognized by its different bumpers, thicker grill, fog lights and its handling was greatly improved thanks to a different front suspension and better steering. Quite nice, to be able to corner with so much luxury and comfort!

We dare to say that we have the most beautiful original Dutch delivered Silver Shadow II standing with us in the Clubhuys. Between 2014 and 2017, the Rolls was completely restored to true new condition, with a great eye for (original) details. Besides the mint condition of the Silver Shadow II, she has all documentation, including the 'new car order' and original purchase note (!!!). In other words, as we want to see with our Cool Classics! Who can we make happy with this British icon? Charles, drive the car for, would you?

"Strive for perfection in everything. Take the best that exist and make it better. If it doesn't exist, create it. Accept nothing nearly right or good enough." - Henry Royce
