1970 Rolls Royce Corniche Fixed Head Coupe

Chassis Number: CRH8497

Registration Number: FVG796J

A wonderful low owner & low mile corniche that has always resided in heated garages. This car has covered a scant 34,000 miles from new backed up by service bills & MOT certificates. We purchased this car from the last octogenarian owner who had maintained the car without regards to cost & kept a detailed list of his expenditures whilst owning the car. He did very few miles in it as he also had a Bentley R type for himself to use & a Silver Dawn for his wife all residing in the same garage near Belfast. Prior to him the car was 12 years in another Northern Ireland ownership where the car was kept in a car cocoon & saw very scant use on high days & holidays. When new the car resided in Bournemouth & was owned by a retired gentleman as his last car.

The car is finished in beautiful carribean blue to the exterior; a colour that really suits the car. To the interior is orignal mid blue leather in excellent order thoughout. The dash board wood & door tops are of figured walnut with a crackle finish to the dash varnish which adds to the originality of the cars condition. We collected the car in Belfast & had a wonderful drive back to the showroom via the Dublin Holyhead ferry.

The ride on this car is sublime simply wafting one down the road in silence. The engine starts instantly & has excellent power & quietness allied by seamless gear changes from the automatic gear box. The car is having a full service performed by marque experts Colbrook Specialists of Peterborough to make it absolutely ready for the next lucky owner. Tyres were recently fitted so have masses of tread left being barely worn in. A badge bar adorns the front of the car with three badges including an RREC badge showing enthusiast ownership by the last proprietor of the car.  

Two keys & the original manual & tool kit come with the car. The unused jack is foind in its appointed place in the boot. A full set of lambswool rugs are also found in a package in the boot ready to be installed in the cabin.

Free nationwide delivery & world wide delivery available at cost.
