This first generation Silver Spirit came off line in August 1982 and features Gold-coloured bodywork teamed with Brown hide interior trim and has only covered 36,000 miles from new with just 4 previous keepers. The vendor grades the bodywork, interior trim, V8 engine and automatic transmission as 'good' and the paintwork as 'average' and is selling the Rolls Without Reserve, complete with cherished registration number '265 DPE', service book containing 11 stamps, 21 old MOT certificates and one valid to January 26, 2019. The Silver Spirit was launched at the 1980 Paris Salon and was the first of a new generation of models that spawned the Flying Spur, Silver Dawn, Touring Limousine and Park Ward for Rolls-Royce, and the Mulsanne and Eight Series cars of its sister company Bentley. The opulent newcomer was lower and longer than the Shadow and featured a considerably larger glass area. Courtesy of its finely-tuned Girling hydraulic self-levelling suspension, it was said to provide the best roadholding so far offered by the marque.
