THE ESSENTIALS

SOLD to St Louis!! This is a well documented and thoroughly serviced 1985 Rolls-Royce Silver Spur that has covered a mere 51,205 miles since new. This Spur is stunning in its Masons Black livery complimented with Black Everflex applied to the roof. The paint looks wonderful with only a few small paint chips and the Everflex has some bubbling underneath as shown in the photo gallery. We love the 1997 Rolls Royce Spur alloy wheels and hub caps that the owner installed. Even the spare has the correct matching wheel. This really updates the look of the Rolls! And the tinted glass provides just a hint of privacy to its occupants.

The interior is very nice overall. The Magnolia leather hides are soft and supple and have been recently redyed. The two contrasting veneers for the wood accents are in good condition with only slight cracking showing throughout.

As a note of interest, that car was originally delivered from the factory in Crewe to a purchaser in Monaco. For this reason this Spur has dual SU-HIF7 carburetors instead of the Bosch fuel injection. Another interesting difference that we’ve never seen on a Rolls of this era are the lower white lens on the front parking lights.

The 400 watt Sony MEX-XB100BT Receiver/CD player with the 250 watt self powered subwoofer (under the passenger seat) produces phenomenal sound through the 4 Helix door speakers installed.

Our consignment client has owned this Spur for nearly ten yeas. A partial list of the major mechanical upgrades that have been performed are as follows: New Rack and Pinion Steering Unit, New Front Brake Calipers (4), Complete New Self Leveling Rear Suspension, New Radiator, Complete Rebuild of Dual SU-7 Carburetors, New custom carpet throughout cabin and trunk, New Bilstein front struts and bushings, New Goodyear Narrow Stripe Whitewall Tires and New Ball Joints in Front Suspension.

The car is in excellent mechanical and hydraulic condition and it comes complete with all the record receipts of the repairs and upgrades. The owner has driven the car from Arizona to California and back several times since he’s owned it with no trouble or problems. This is one of the 671 LHD Silver Spurs produced in 1985.

Being fitted with carburetors, this example should continue to prove to be dependable for regular use. The Spur is complete with spare keys, a stack of service receipts, tools and records, but does not come with the owners manual.

For more information and details, call or text Harry Clark at +1.602.245.7200 or email us at harry@classicpromenade.com. The Spur is located in our Phoenix, AZ showroom. We encourage and assist with live video inspections of our motorcars.

Rolls-Royce Silver Spur/Silver Spirit

Interesting Fact: The Rolls-Royce Silver Spur is a long-wheelbase version of the Rolls-Royce Silver Spirit that was manufactured from 1980 to 2000. It was also the first model to feature a retractable Spirit of Ecstasy, which would retract into the radiator shell if dislodged.    Both the Silver Spur and Silver Spirit carried over designs…
Interesting Fact: The Rolls-Royce Silver Spur is a long-wheelbase version of the Rolls-Royce Silver Spirit that was manufactured from 1980 to 2000. It was also the first model to feature a retractable Spirit of Ecstasy, which would retract into the radiator shell if dislodged.    Both the Silver Spur and Silver Spirit carried over designs from their predecessor the Silver Shadow. This included using a 6.75 L L410 V8 engine along with a GM-sourced THM400 3-speed transmission. Each vehicle was considered a full-size luxury car and self-leveling suspension systems with ride height control and shock absorbers ensure a comfortable ride quality.   There were two variations of the Silver Spur released in the 1990s: The Flying Spur and the Silver Dawn. The Flying Spur is a turbocharged model that features a higher performance than the base model. Only 134 of these were ever produced. The Silver Dawn is a specialized edition of the Spur and featured new technology for the time such as electronic traction assistance systems and heated rear seats.    Production on both base models officially closed in 1997 but continued until 2000 when the Silver Spirits parts were fully out of stock. The luxurious craftsmanship that went into the production of the Silver Spur and Silver Spirit paved the way for future Rolls-Royce vehicles.
