Harry's Thoughts

This elegant color combination of Magnolia Livery over Sand and Parchment leather interior is stunning. She's been extensively maintained throughout her life and needs nothing now to be enjoyed. She's a beautiful, low mileage example.

THE ESSENTIALS

This is a beautiful 1998 Rolls-Royce Silver Spur that has spent most of its life in Southern California. This is the most refined of the Silver Spurs and the pinnacle of the Crewe built Rolls-Royce motorcars before the sale of the company to BMW. And with a mere 55,000 miles, this car needs nothing and is ready to be enjoyed.  This is incredibly rare being one of only 59 left hand drive Silver Spurs made for worldwide production.

We love the elegant and classic Magnolia livery complimented by the subtle tan coach stripes. The paint is original and in overall very nice condition. The front and rear bumpers show some abrasions from normal use. These can easily be touched up, if so desired. The alloy Rolls-Royce wheels and chrome hub caps look timeless and classic. The radials are near new and being black walls add a sporting look to its profile.

The interior is in excellent overall condition. The seats, door panels and headliner are all fitted in two tone Sand and Parchment leather. It looks stunning next to the gorgeous wood dashboard, door caps and trim that is burl walnut complimented with other veneers. The wood is all original and in overall excellent condition. There are only a few minor cracks in the veneer which are only noticeable upon close inspection. The light tan carpet is covered throughout with champagne colored sheepskin mouton overlays for the ultimate in luxury.  Overall, the interior is in very good to excellent condition.

The last of the series Spurs benefited from the installation of a light boosted turbocharger producing 300 hp and 442 ft lbs of torque from the venerable 6.8 liter engine. This provides a perfect balance of luxurious performance and dependability.

Mechanically, this Silver Spur has benefited from consistent and extensive servicing throughout her life. The present owner has made sure all systems operate as they should. The car performs beautifully and drives as it should. You can have the confidence that this Rolls will provide reliable and comfortable service in the future. As a note, there are no drips or leaks anywhere on this car.

The Rolls is complete with its toolkit, books, manuals, the phone for the rear seat passengers and the remote for the AM/FM CD changer. She also is accompanied with a binder containing extensive service and maintenance records.

This is an opportunity to enjoy a hand-built motorcar that, when new, was close to $200,000 (three times the cost of an S-Class Mercedes).

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.
