Description
A lovely example of a very rare, 3.5 litre V8. As we understand it, only 68 were built in right-hand drive, and consequently very hard to find! The car is very nicely finished in soft white with original black leather interior and black hood, and is in lovely condition. The car has been with one family (father and daughter) since 1978, and quite possibly since new. We are investigating this further. Well maintained, with a good deal of history in the file, including many invoices, a run of MoT certificates, original handbook and service book, etc, etc. In the late 1980s, the car was stripped to bare metal and completely repainted to a high standard in the original shade of white, and still lovely to this day. Offered serviced and MoT'd. Chassis No. [Phone number removed]1502. Reg No. DPH 595J

About Us:
The Real Car Company Ltd
The Real Car Company was established in 1987 by Ray Arnold & Ian Johnstone to specialise in the sale of early Rolls-Royce and Bentley. It was a hobby that 'Got out of hand'. Our interest in cars of the type that we now sell goes back to our childhoods, and ownership back to the 1970s.
Gradually more cars started passing through our hands, and by 1986 we had decided to make a full-time occupation of buying and selling the cars that we love.
We started with a single car (all we could afford) which we sold quickly, and before we knew it we had 4 or 5 on our hands! This was alongside another business (exhaust systems) that we were involved in at the time.
In the spring of 1988 we gave up the other business, rented part of the premises that we still operate from now, and went full time.
We started well in the boom years of the late eighties, which set us up well enough for us to ride the storm of recession in the years that followed. As the years went on the number of cars going through our hands increased gradually, we built up a workforce, and we now carry a stock of around 30 to 40 vehicles with nine of us here. Over the years we have gratefully received awards from the motoring press.
We are always interested in acquiring cars of the type that we sell so if you know of a Rolls-Royce or Bentley for sale, anywhere in the World, particularly an early model, please let us know.
