Rolls-Royce needs little introduction, with the brand itself often used as a superlative for the ultimate in anything and everything. Up for sale is an example of one of the brand's most iconic models, from an era where coach-built vehicles were recognized as a bespoke testament to style and class. This Corniche convertible left Rolls-Royce's Cheshire, UK factory in December 1985. This example requires some loving recommissioning to bring it back to its former glory but appears to present a solid basis with low mileage, having run just 41,000 miles over the past three decades.
Presented in a stunning Royal Blue, with a contrasting Tan soft top, this two-door Rolls-Royce convertible exudes a timeless charm. It sits on color-coordinated wheel trims, which are wrapped in Bridgestone rubber. The chrome grille and associated brightwork feature the iconic Spirit of Ecstasy gracing the hood, placed in between twin headlights up front. The interior continues this theme. The dash is logically laid out, with a two-spoke steering wheel providing an uninterrupted view of the centrally mounted speedometer. Other gauges for water and oil temperature, as well as voltage and fuel, flank the speedo, all inset into a wooden dash. The 2+2 seating arrangement allows for four to travel. The light-colored leather seats feature contrasting piping, while the rear-seat passengers get individual wooden fold-out trays built into the front seatbacks. Also present is a period-impressive car phone. Mulliner Park Ward logos are dotted around the interior, including on the sills, and the carpet, reminding occupants of the coach-built origins of the car.
This 1986 Rolls Royce Corniche Convertible/Cabriolet is powered by the British Brand's famed 6 ¾ V8 engine — an engine design that emerged in 1939 and went on to power Bentleys up to 2020. The seller reports that some work on the mechanicals will be required to get this British luxury car back in tip-top shape. It's noted that new seals will be necessary, and the brakes are worn. Although this Rolls Royce sports the convenience of power-assisted steering, it is also noted that there's some leakage from the system
