Exterior and Interior
The Rolls-Royce Corniche sported a timeless and iconic design. Iconic to the point that James May of ‘Top Gear’ and ‘The Grand Tour’ fame had one in his personal collection. Whilst James owned a red, two-door coupe, this 1988 Rolls-Royce Corniche II Convertible sports a white exterior and tan convertible hood which sure bring out that Rolls Royce personality better. Sitting neatly on original Rolls-Royce hub caps, this car is reported to have all its original equipment in place. The interior is typical Rolls-Royce fashion, the best in luxury and comfort with no compromises. A tan color scheme with wood finish is the order of the day and is in amazing condition, right down to the original Lambswool floor mats. In case top-down motoring leaves you feeling warm, you could retract the convertible hood and chill yourself with the original factory bi-level air conditioning whilst listening to some tunes on the period radio/cassette sound system. Find your most comfortable position with the electrically-adjustable seats that offer a memory function as well. Also included in the sale is the original cell phone in the car, original bar set and original leather boot.
Engine
Gentlemanly status with a smooth and silky ride are essential traits for a Rolls-Royce, and in the past, the company would not publicly declare the output of its engines, merely stating them to be ‘sufficient’. With their iconic 6.75 liter V8, it was definitely sufficient, and that’s the powerplant that this 1988 Rolls-Royce Corniche II Convertible packs under its long hood, sending drive to the rear wheels via a three-speed Turbo-Hydramatic automatic gearbox. Power figures were estimated to be around 237hp, as the emphasis was on low-end torque.
