The Corniche name dates back to 1939 when a prototype was created based on the Bentley Mark V. Unfortunately, the car was never produced due to the onset of the first world war. The Corniche nameplate finally made its debut in 1971, in the form of a two-door, front-engine luxury car that was to appeal to rich and daring. This 1986 Rolls Royce Corniche Convertible has reportedly been well looked after since day one of its purchase and is currently for sale in Florida, with no more than 37k miles on the clock.
Exterior and Interior
The Corniche was a hefty two-door sports car, with an emphasis on luxury around the exterior that includes a massive front grille, quad headlights, a flashy chrome bumper up front, and the iconic "Spirit of Ecstasy. This recently-serviced Rolls Royce has a fully-functional beige soft top with frameless windows and a chrome body line that extends all the way to the rear fins of the car. The Interior is primarily beige, with fine wood varnish panels that give it a two-tone look. This 1986 Corniche has plush beige leather seats with black trim, matching door panels, a headliner, and a dashboard with wooden accents that stretch to the doors and the center console. You will also observe hints of chrome glimmering in various places inside the cabin
Engine
The engine under the long hood of the Corniche tucks away its 6.75L (famously six and three-quarter) V8 with twin SU carburetors that have been mated with a 3-speed automatic transmission. When new, the car was rated to produce up to 218 hp and achieve a top speed of just over 125 mph.

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.

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.
