Description of 1985 Rolls-Royce Corniche |
Equipment
This beautiful Rolls-Royce Corniche is finished in classic and elegant Magnolia. The interior is finished in blue leather with white piping. She sports low 54,000 miles and is a beautifully maintained example. Clean, ery straight and very original throughout, iththe exception of an upgraded sound system. Rolls-Royces are hand-made cars, ut what few know is the Corniche was the true bespoke manufactured Rolls-Royce. The body shells were hand-made in Italy and shipped to Rolls-Royce in Crewe where they were all re-worked to Rolls-Royces rigid standards. Because of the relatively small production run on the Corniche, any of them vary in engineering specifications from car to car and in most cases, t is almost impossible to find two exactly built cars. To the non-discerning eye this would not be detectable but the purist would note subtle differences between these cars — even if they were only one chassis number apart. Each car was built and fine-tuned in such a way to achieve the best possible ride, erformance and operation specific to each build. Because of this very "unique"approach there is no wonder why these cars were so expensive when new. The body and paint on the car are simply lovely. It does have the odd and only very minor mark here and there (nothing objectionable) and mentioned only in an effort to maintain complete open disclosure. It is a clear 9 out of 10 and looks beautiful with nothing needing attending to.The interior of the car is completely original with all the leather untouched and factory original but still looking great. The wood throughout is also all original and in good condition - in keeping with the vehicle's age. Carpets, ash, oof cover (" boot") are all in excellent condition. Mechanically, he car is excellent. When this car is driven, t truly glides smoothly and effortlessly. Even over rough road surfaces, t displays no knocks, attles or thumps — it is very "tight"indeed. As we all know, eals and gaskets are all major concerns for older cars, egardless of maintenance. This vehicle's motor has recently undergone a "head job", herein all seals, askets and O-Rings were replaced, nsuring maximum output for the motor and adding many years to the useful life of this remarkable vehicle. All features on the car work as they should. A/C is ice cold, eater is hot and climate control works as it should. All windows work, ncluding the rear seat ¼ glasses which are famous for not working at all. Electric seats are working well. All gauges are working with the exception ofthe gas gauge, s are all the dash lights and interior lights. The convertible top on the car is in excellent shape and works well without complications. |
