The commissioning of a beautiful object is a singular event; an occasion to celebrate.
Be it sculpted bronze, an ocean-going yacht, a contemporary furniture classic, or an
architectural icon, each commission is an individual interpretation, shaped by human
minds and hands. Each one the fulfilment of a vision, each one an original. This has
always been the essence of each Rolls-Royce motor car.
With a new styling particularly appealing to the younger generation of owners more prevalent
from the 1960s onward Rolls-Royce unveiled new models in 1980. These were designed to meet
the increasingly strict safety, emissions and consumption legislation proliferating internationally.
Austrian born Fritz Feller now heading the styling department had been responsible for the elegant
coachwork with uncluttered lines and significantly enlarged window areas. Developed on the floorpan
of the Silver Shadow the new cars showed a considerably improved ride and roadholding not at least
due to the new Girling automatic height control in combination with gas shock absorbers. As expected
the cars were luxuriously appointed with sumptuous leather seats and deep pile carpets giving the
utmost comfort and a veneer covered fascia retaining a traditional appearance.
This is a 1982 Rolls Royce Silver Spirit, the ultimate in British Elegance, Design and Comfort.
Under the hood sits a 6,750 cc V 8 engine with a Bosch fuel injection and a 3-speed automatic gearbox.
This vehicle delivers smooth, effortless driving characteristics with excellent reserves of power while
maintaining a luxurious feel. This Rolls Royce comes loaded with power options, including: Pwr. steering,
Pwr. Brakes, Pwr. windows, air conditioning and many more. Runs and drives great, a beautiful British
sedan.
