1973 Rolls Royce Corniche Convertible-Only 26552 Miles For Sale

Peter Vardy Heritage offer this outstanding Rolls Royce Corniche Convertible finished in stunning Nugget Gold with Black vinyl hood and contrasting Black Anela Leather. Rarely do we offer a motor car that has such a comprehensive history file. Every detail of this car's life appears to be in there including the Confirmation of Order letter dated 4th November 1971 from official Rolls-Royce dealer J. D Barclay in Banbury to the first owner Mr. Sylvester, a gentleman farmer from Hampshire. Mr. Sylvester kept meticulous records and they include the original purchase receipt for the car dated 19th December 1972 for the sum of £14, 541. 85, which at the time was not insignificant bearing in mind a brand new E-Type Jaguar was around £3, 000. In addition to confirming the car's original order specification, leather', the receipt also details a full tank of petrol (100 litres) for the grand total of £8. 50! The history file also includes two unused "Motor Fuel ration books" for use during the 1973 Oil crisis. First registered on the 1st January 1973, Mr. Sylvester had the car regularly serviced regardless of his low usage and fastidiously kept every service receipt and invoice. The history file reads like a Who's Who of Rolls-Royce main dealers including J. D. Barclay, Rolls-Royce at Crewe, Phantom Motor Cars, Frank Dale & Sons, and Hanwells of London.
