Our featured car is an all-original 1988 Rolls Royce Silver Spur, the long-wheelbase sister of the Silver Spirit, which appears to be in as good condition — as if it just came from the late ‘80s. It was the first car to feature the iconic retractable “Spirit of Ecstasy.” The Silver Spur was a new generation of model which formed the basis for well-known names such as the Flying Spur, Silver Dawn, and the Bentley Mulsanne series. The Silver Spur carried over the basic design of its predecessor, the Silver Shadow, carrying over the same V8 engine and the automatic gearbox sourced from General Motors. This particular model boasts an original mileage of the original 6.8-liter V8 engine that has clocked 51,000 miles on the odometer, and with servicing up to date, this vehicle is for sale in Birmingham, Alabama.
This full-sized British luxury car is draped in a luxurious two-tone white and brown paint job. Mounted on it are shiny chrome RR wheels wrapped in white wall tires, making this 1988 Rolls Royce Silver Spur an elegant work of art. You get the iconic Rolls Royce square shaped chrome grille, chrome side mirrors, chrome door handles, and chrome bumpers designed to elegantly show off. This U.S. model also comes with sealed headlamps whereas the European model does not. Inside is where the magic happens in any Rolls Royce as this classic Silver Spur comes adorned with lavish brown upholstery. The wood interior trim elevates the interior to another level, from expensive wood covering the dash to doors and even the rear fold tray tables. The all-original interior is fully carpeted, and power front seats allow you to sit in comfort. Of course, as a top-of-line luxury vehicle, you get wine and champagne glasses and an old-school telephone that will prove to be a novel conversation piece.
Under the hood of this 1988 Rolls Royce Silver Spur is a smooth-purring 6.75-liter L410 V8 engine mated to a GM-sourced THM400 3-speed automatic transmission. Rolls Royce’s commitment to ride quality was shown with the Silver Spur in the 1980s by utilizing hydropneumatic self-leveling suspension, modified with a Girling automatic hydraulic ride height control system and gas-charged shock absorbers.

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.
Why would you want to buy a Rolls Royce Silver Spur, and what to consider when looking for one? With production averaging around 1,000 cars per year for 20 years in the 1980s, these fantastically crafted cars, which were enormously expensive when new, can now be purchased for surprisingly low rates. The key is to look for an example with a great recent history, had a fair amount of use, little to no corrosion, and has been loved and taken care of. Look no further; this 1985 Rolls Royce Silver Spur fits perfectly to this description with a fair 95,900 miles on its odometer. This lovely 1985 model is a member of the Mark I, the very first generation, and it still preserves its original vintage appeal.

Cars have gotten a lot more flashy over the past few decades. They used to be used to get from A to B, but now? They’re seen as full-on accessories and status symbols.

You see, the G wagon started life as a rugged, utilitarian workhorse, but as the years have gone by, Mercedes has found more and more ways to refine it. And the rest is history. This particular G-Wagon is 1 of just 1,000 units in the world, making it a real unicorn.
The Range Rover is a luxury SUV from British off-roader maker Land Rover, and it was introduced in 1970 to show the world what Land Rover could do in the luxury space. Land Rover is best known for the iconic but spartan Series and Defender, and they wanted to broaden their target markets. The Range Rover spawned a few sub-derivatives as well, such as the Range Rover Sport and Range Rover Velar, but the full-fat Range Rover remains supreme. Today, we’ve got a current-generation 2023 Land Rover Range Rover SE P400 for sale from Ford Lauderdale, Florida, with just 23,299 miles reported to its name.

The Bentley Bentayga is the result of when Bentley decides to venture into the SUV pool. As you’d expect, its an uber-luxury machine that can really recalibrate your definition as to what automotive opulence can be. Introduced in 2015, the Bentayga is still a strong seller. No surprise, given that it’s related to the Lamborghini Urus, Audi Q7 and Q8, and Porsche Cayenne. Today, we’ve got a special edition Bentayga for sale, a 2018 Bentley Bentayga W12 Signature Edition that’s covered a mere 44,000 miles so far. The vehicle comes with the Mulliner Driving Specification, All Terrain Specification, Advanced Technology Package, and so much more.
