Overview of 1988 Rolls-Royce Silver Spur For Sale by Owner

Opulence on the outside and old-school luxury on the inside: The Rolls-Royce Silver Spur. Most people would see this car and ask, “but isn’t that a Silver Spirit?”. The Silver Spur is actually the long wheelbase version of the Silver Spirit. The Silver Spirit/Spurs were first introduced in 1980 to replace the aging Silver Shadow and had a more contemporary, squared-off design. It was also larger, with the MkI Spur having a total length of 211.8 inches and weighing over 5000lb. Being a Rolls-Royce, the main focus of the car was, of course, ride comfort; achieved by its hydropneumatic self-levelling suspension, Girling automatic ride height control system and gas-charged shock absorbers. Interestingly, this was also the first Rolls-Royce model to be fitted with the retractable Spirit of Ecstasy on the hood that is so famous today.

Exterior and Interior

The tan landau top matches the tan interior while simultaneously contrasting well with the black exterior. The paintwork has a pinstripe running down the side (in classic Rolls-Royce fashion). The unique chrome plate-like wheels with body-colored centers are fitted with white striped tires. There is also a retractable vertical antenna on the trunk, as popularly seen in cars of that era. Unfortunately, being a US market car, it was fitted with sealed beam headlamps rather than the sleeker composite units that were fitted to the European market (to meet US regulations). The interior is the real star of this show. It’s all tan leather, wood trim and chrome; no color-changing LED mood lighting or massive screens here. There’s a vast amount of rear legroom and picnic tables that fold out of the front seatbacks. It has quite a few modern amenities as well, like the memory electric seats. There also appears to be an in-built car phone. This car reportedly has only 39,700 miles on it, and the great condition of the interior certainly indicates that.

Engine

This is not a vehicle that one drives, but rather that one is driven in. But if you do need to get somewhere in a hurry, it has a 6.8L V8 that drives the rear wheels. The MkI was only fitted with a 3-speed automatic transmission, but that does mean that there are less gear changes so the ride will probably be smoother. The seller states that the fluids have been changed and the car comes with 2 ignition keys and 1 trunk key.

Current Ask
SOLD

Rolls-Royce is a name that needs no introduction. It’s the last word in automotive luxury; there’s really nowhere above to go from here. For over a century, this iconic British automaker has been setting the standard for automotive luxury, while others consistently try (and often fail) to challenge them. Because owning a Rolls-Royce isn’t about sheer power, countless tech toys or leather seats. It’s about fine finishing, attention to detail and, above all, refinement. That’s what you’ll get with this 1991 Rolls-Royce Silver Spur II from Daytona Beach. The Silver Spur of this era was the long wheelbase variant of the Silver Spirit, so you’ve got even more space in the rear seat. Yes, this sub-50,000-mile car is best when you’re being driven in it, but it’s a nice thing to command from the driving seat every now and then.

2022 Rolls-Royce Ghost

Current Ask
SOLD

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.

$350,000

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.

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.
