1968 Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow
 

 

Built in September 1967 and delivered to its first owner in January 1968, this Silver Shadow is finished in white with a rich burgundy interior, and has spent its 43 year life in the Johannesburg area.

First shown to the public in 1965 and produced until 1980, the Silver Shadow was Rolls-Royce's most successful model to date. Powered by a 6.2 litre V8 hand-built engine, 4-speed automatic transmission, independent hydraulic suspension, power-assisted steering and disc brakes all round, this car was a technological marvel. This continued in the interior with electronic seat adjustment, electronic gear selection, split-level climate control and electric windows.

To complement this state of the art technology, the finest quality materials and hand-stitched interiors were used. Burr walnut adorns the vast dashboard, door cappings, rear fold-out picnic trays and rear passenger vanity mirrors. The seats and doors are covered in soft Connolly leather and the floors trimmed in Wilton carpets. 

Classic lines, superior engineering, meticulous hand-crafting and the finest materials were combined to produce a car that was truly worthy of its title "The best car in the world". Experience the grace and elegance of a bygone era.

1947 Bentley MkVI


Built in 1947 this Bentley MkVI was delivered new in February 1948 to South Africa. The MkVI was the first car built by Rolls-Royce and Bentley in the new Crewe factory and was also the first car to feature a standard steel body, rather than bespoke coachwork provided by the coachbuilders before the war.

Equipped with a 4.25 litre 6 cylinder engine matched to a 4-speed manual gearbox, this vehicle is known as a sports saloon and delivers superb performance for the era. The interior is classic Bentley with firm Connelly hide, burl walnut fascia and door cappings and thick Wilton carpeting.

This vehicle has been recomissioned after many years of storage and is a pleasure to drive in. Restoration has been sympathetic to her age so that the patena earned over 63 years is not lost.
