⭕ VEHICLE SUMMARY

The Silver Shadow offers an unrivalled combination of luxury, comfort, and a stately driving experience.

In the past, Rolls-Royce were known for its opulent and decadent machinery, with a reputation for producing worthy but rather staid cars for the lucky few. However, the release of the 1965 Silver Shadow was considered a revolution for the company. The crisply designed saloon styling, utilising a monocoque construction, was a visual treat, successfully balancing modernity with tradition.

Further revolution was evident under its skin, with hydropneumatic suspension and braking set-up and a new range of V8 engines, designed for smoothness rather than pace. Gradual upgrades were carried out on the car over its 31-year production run, one of the most notable being the enlargement of the engine to 6.75 litres, which provided 220bhp, resulting in the car becoming even more refined when cruising. Known as the 'Best Car in the World', it became the best-selling Rolls-Royce of all time.

This 1976 example retains the simpler style dashboard and blade bumpers and is finished in the rare Royal Garnet colourway, which was a special order colour for the Royal Rolls-Royces of the era. Fitted with a contrasting tan leather interior, it has seen over £13,500 worth of spending over the last two years, having come off a body and interior restoration in 2020. Last serviced around 500 miles ago in 2024, it comes with its owner's wallet and is MOT and road tax exempt.
