Chassis No: SCAZN00A5KCH26238
MOT: January 2024
The Silver Spur was the moniker adopted by Rolls-Royce for the long wheelbase versions of the Silver Spirit, and belonged to a new generation of models that also included that marque's Flying Spur, Silver Dawn, Touring Limousine and Park Ward, and the Mulsanne and Eight Series models of its sister company, Bentley. Penned by Fritz Feller, the range was first represented at the 1980 Paris Salon and was a welcome replacement for the long-serving Silver Shadow and its siblings. The design was not entirely new, however, and employed the floorpan of the outgoing model as well as its proven OHV 6750cc V8 powerplant. The opulent newcomer was lower and longer than its predecessor though and, courtesy of its finely-tuned hydraulic self-levelling suspension, was said to provide the best roadholding ever offered by the marque at that time. There were a total of four iterations of the range, via which the models remained in production until 1998.
Supplied new by Harwoods of Pulborough to Morning foods limited of Crewe, Cheshire ‘F666 LCD’ is finished in Acrylic Silver Sand complemented to a Parchment hide. Previously maintained by the Ron Stratton Motor company in 2019 the Rolls-Royce was subject to an extensive bodywork restoration and repaint. At the same time all the woodwork was refurbished, and the leather treated to a refresh plus an extensive mechanical overhaul took place. Having been in current ownership since 2005 ‘F666 LCD’ is offered with its original owner's wallet, handbooks and service book plus a collection of old MOT certificates, invoices and current V5c document.
