Motorcar Classics is pleased to present this absolute masterpiece of British motoring luxury, this stunning 1985 Rolls-Royce Corniche Convertible is a rare survivor showing just 21,186 original miles. Draped in a timeless, high-gloss Black exterior, its commanding presence is perfectly complemented by a sumptuous Beige/Tan Connolly leather interior that remains in remarkably original condition. Every detail of this hand-built icon from the mirror-finish burl wood veneers to the deep-pile carpets whispers of an era when motorcars were crafted without compromise. This example is considered a nice driver, with some blemishes here and there.
Under the hood, this Corniche is powered by the legendary, whisper-quiet 6.75-liter V8 engine, delivering the brand's signature "adequate" power with effortless, locomotive-like torque. Paired with a smooth three-speed automatic transmission and a sophisticated, self-leveling hydraulic suspension system, it offers a legendary "magic carpet ride" that modern luxury cars struggle to replicate.
As a highly coveted collectible, this particular Corniche represents the absolute pinnacle of investment-grade classics. The Corniche remains one of the most recognizable and prestigious symbols of wealth and success ever created, and finding an all-original, low-mileage example in this classic color combination is becoming exceedingly difficult. With its incredibly low mileage, immaculate preservation, and timeless elegance, this Corniche is not just a classic car; it is a blue-chip collector's piece poised for continued appreciation and guaranteed to command attention at any prestigious concours or private collection. Your inspection is invited!
