Harry's Thoughts
THE ESSENTIALS
This is a gorgeous example of a 1993 Rolls-Royce Corniche IV that has accumulated 23,770 miles from new. The present owner has enjoyed a variety of Rolls-Royce’s for the past 40 years and is a longtime RROC member. In triple black livery, it is simply stunning. Over the past 17 years of ownership, it has been serviced and maintained by Simon Curzon, who is now serving as the Chief Judge for the RROC.
Inspection reports, factory records and more are available at classicpromenade.com.
This Rolls is the 84th of the 219 Corniche IVs made in the four years from 1992 until 1995. This is incredibly rare, and more so being triple black, from California and Texas and having accumulated a mere 23,770 miles since new. The Corniche IVs benefitted from the latest engineering, including upgrades to the ABS braking system, a four-speed automatic and many other refinements.
The livery is beautiful in its original Masons Black with contrasting red double coach stripes. The paint is stunning with its factory finish without orange peel and still looking as though it is wet! The stainless steel and chrome are overall in very good to excellent condition, with only normal use shown via small fine scratches in the stainless steel. The Black Everflex convertible top is in excellent condition and the rear window is clear and also in great condition. Every part of the car reinforces that this has been faithfully garaged and cared for since new.
The black leather interior is complimented with triple tone wood veneer, including burl walnut, and two other contrasting veneers. The leather is in overall excellent condition with only minimal wear shown on the drivers seat, which one would expect after 23,700 miles. The leather is soft and supple and also shows that this Rolls has been loved and cared for. The black Wilton wool carpets are nearly as new and are covered by the original black mouton sheepskin overlays which are in very nice condition.
The drivers door wood cap railing shows several normal small chips from the seat belt, which we commonly see in Corniches. The light gray wool broadcloth headliner and the original convertible top boot cover are in excellent condition as well. Included in the purchase is the Exerflex case for the top boot cover, a black car cover and a set of the original black sheepskin seat covers for the two front seats.
The engine compartment is in concours presentation condition. It absolutely looks showroom new. The Corniche drives beautifully and the 158-point inspection report was completed by Simon Curzon since he just completed its service and the car was shipped directly to us from his shop.
The Rolls is complete with its Owners Manual, original set of tools and service records are on their way to us. The perfectly clean CARFAX is displayed on our website as well as the Inspection Report. When new, the Corniche IV had a base MSRP over $285,000.
For a couple of data points, the Hagerty Price Guide has the 1993 Corniche IV valued at $99,000 for a No. 2 and $120,000 for a No. 1 example.

We have switched our software development team. We were having issues yesterday and today with the auction functionality and have decided to end the auctions for now. This is now immediately available via Private Sales. We apologize. Thanks.
We have updated the photo gallery with undercarriage shots taken at ground level. Since Simon Curzon did the inspection, we did not put it on our lift. But you can see it fairly well. They are at the end of the photo gallery. Thank you!
