1980 Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow II 4dr Auto Saloon Petrol Automatic

Description

A very fine example of a late Silver Shadow, in lovely condition throughout, very attractive in Willow gold & Dark Olive, contrasting nicely with the brightwork. The beige leather is in excellent condition, as are the carpets, headlining (also leather) and woodwork. The car is nicely sound and sharp, is all correct, as specified when new. This really is a well cared-for example, which still smells as it should inside, and even the boot is spotlessly clean, and includes a full toolkit. There is also a set of lambswool over rugs. Just 76,000 genuine miles from new, confirmed by stamped service book, MoTs, etc, and various invoices in the file. Also comes with handbook, and various booklets, all in the original wallet as delivered. The car was driven a couple of hundred miles to us, and is ready to be driven away again! Chassis No. SRH40484 Reg No. GHV 90W

About us:
The Real Car Company was established in 1987 by Ray Arnold & Ian Johnstone. 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 1970's. 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 that we were involved in at the time. In the Spring of 1988 we gave up the other business, (exhaust systems), rented part of the premises that we still operate from now, and went full time.

We had a good start 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 40 to 50 vehicles and there are nine of us here. In 1999 we were awarded 'International Classic Car Dealer of the Year' by Classic Cars Magazine. The market for 'our' kind of cars is nicely stable, generally prices are creeping upwards all the time, and we feel that investing in a car - or cars - of the type that we sell is generally a great place to put your money. Don't do it just for investment, but you can get a great deal of pleasure from these vehicles, prices are - in our opinion - unlikely to drop, and you can't drive a share certificate! Some prices in the last three or four years have moved up considerably, and these cases have shown a tremendous return on investment.

Over the last fifteen years or so we have brought home several hundred cars from the USA, and we are always looking for more. If you know of a Rolls-Royce or Bentley anywhere in the world, in absolutely any condition, please let us know. Distance no object, commissions happily paid. We always particularly enjoy the 'barn finds'.
