Perception is a truly wonderous thing. Merely mention ‘exotic car’, and a multitude of brands come to mind. But mention ‘ultimate luxury car’ and two brands come to mind. One is Rolls-Royce. Over the years the Rolls-Royce brand has stood for one thing, to be the best in terms of pinnacle automobiles that make a statement. Mulliner Park Ward, a subsidiary of Rolls-Royce and the ones responsible for almost all of Rolls-Royce’s iconic designs ensured that each owner felt special and stood out from the rest. Celebrities, wealthy and popular personalities, even Dictators choose to roll about in a Rolls-Royce, driving or being driven in one. Why not cruise around in class and style with this 1988 Rolls-Royce Corniche II Convertible that could be yours. This Florida-based car is reported to have been sold new in the USA and the current owner has enjoyed it since 1990. This clean and fine example of British engineering and luxury comes with just 33,360 miles reported and has been maintained by a Rolls-Royce dealer in Florida. A majority of the service records are included for further peace of mind.
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.
Today’s EVs and high-performance vehicles are all lovely to drive daily, but what about slowing down every now and then? Studies have shown that constantly being under stress is bad for you, what with all that cortisol coursing through your veins. What you need is a calm and relaxed weekend cruiser, and what better car than this 48,144-mile 1986 Rolls-Royce Corniche II from Hamilton, New Jersey? This luxury British drop-top grand tourer is perfect for taking things slow, even though with a massive V8 under the hood, it won’t hold up traffic. Having received some new parts, this car could be yours to cherish for years to come. Let’s take a deeper dive into what this old-school British luxury car offers.
The 80s saw a big change in the automotive world, and as customer preferences moved from an old-school analogue feel to new-age digital features, cars like the Rolls-Royce Corniche threw it back to the good old days of luxury and driver engagement. Present today is an 80s icon and looks like this 1982 Rolls-Royce Corniche I Convertible. With a reported 50,000 original miles on the clock, this classic beauty sports a host of factory features and is a luxury icon to this day.
From making turbojet engines for aircraft to handcrafted luxury vehicles, the Rolls-Royce brand needs no introduction. One of Rolls-Royce’s success stories was the Rolls-Royce Corniche. Corniche stands for a coastal road especially one which is along the face off the cliff. The Corniche is a two-door, RWD luxury car that was offered as a hardtop and a convertible. The first-generation Corniche was produced from 1971-1987, and our subject specimen is a 1985 Rolls-Royce Corniche Convertible aka Drophead with just 32,500 original miles on the clock
The Ghost has always occupied an interesting place in the Rolls-Royce lineup: less formal than the Phantom, but still every bit a proper Rolls-Royce in the way it delivers effortless power, craftsmanship, and presence. This 2022 Rolls-Royce Ghost leans heavily into that character with just 6,005 miles and a particularly well-coordinated Bespoke specification. Midnight Sapphire paint is paired with a Charles Blue cabin, while Navy Blue monograms, piping, stitching, and steering wheel trim continue the blue theme throughout the interior. More importantly, this is not simply a color-driven build. Bespoke Interior Module Editing, Paldao veneer, veneered steering wheel spokes, picnic tables, lambswool footmats, a Starlight Headliner, and Rolls-Royce Premium Bespoke Audio give it the sort of individual specification enthusiasts and collectors tend to appreciate. It is a Ghost that feels properly commissioned rather than merely ordered from a catalog.
Few automobiles make an entrance quite like a Rolls-Royce Phantom, and this 2020 example delivers the kind of presence, craftsmanship, and rear-seat luxury that has made the Phantom one of the world’s benchmark ultra-luxury sedans. Showing approximately 24,000 miles, this example is finished in English White over an Arctic White interior, with black contrast seat piping adding just enough definition to the cabin. The specification is appropriately lavish, with features such as the Rear Theatre Configuration, Rolls-Royce Bespoke Audio System, The Gallery glass fascia, Dark Burr Walnut trim, 22-inch fully polished forged alloy wheels, and RR monograms on all headrests. It is the sort of car designed not simply to get you somewhere, but to make every mile feel like an occasion.
The 2017 Rolls-Royce Wraith represents the ultimate expression of Rolls-Royce’s grand touring philosophy, combining effortless V12 performance with bespoke craftsmanship and unmistakable presence. Built as the marque’s most powerful production model at the time, the Wraith blends a dramatic fastback silhouette with the handcrafted luxury expected from Goodwood. Finished in English White over a Creme Light interior, this example features an extensive collection of bespoke appointments, including the highly desirable Starlight Headliner, a signature Rolls-Royce option that recreates a hand-crafted celestial night sky through hundreds of individually placed fiber-optic lights. Showing 50,562 miles, this Wraith is further distinguished by RR monogrammed headrests, Lambswool floormats, Piano Black Veneer, Bespoke Audio, and 21-inch 7-Spoke Alloy Wheels.
