1978 ROLLS ROYCE CORNICHE CONVERTIBLE
Left Hand Drive
Chassis number DRG32485 was ordered by Rolls Royce of Beverly Hills on the 14.06.77 and was delivered on the 15th August 1978. After 18 years in California the Corniche returned to the UK in 1996. In 1999 the car was sold and shipped to the Isle of Man to its new owner who has owned the car ever since. The car retains its original Porcelain White coachwork. The interior, trimmed in Persian Blue hide with mountain Blue carpets and matching lamb’s wool over rugs. The interior retains its original audio set-up with Blaupunkt radio cassette. Presented in exceptional condition throughout DRG32485 is offered with a very comprehensive history file. The file includes a handwritten owner’s log book giving details of all the services in the USA from March 1982 at 18,000 miles to August 1996 at 68,000 miles. Also included are masses of invoices from UK Rolls Royce specialists and main agents such as Bentley Pangbourne. In total this car has had over £50,000 spent since its return to the UK. This includes two comprehensive mechanical overhauls undertaken by Mead of Birmingham costing over £20,000. The file also accommodates copies of the Rolls Royce build records, detailing the specification and manufacturing of this vehicle and the original owner’s handbook. Having covered just 94000 miles from new this wonderful example remains in 1st class condition both mechanically and cosmetically by virtue of a no expense spared service history and very careful ownership.
