SUMMARY
Still elegant at 46 years old, this 'Flying Lady' would be welcome at the smartest of parties. Offered without reserve.
DESCRIPTION
- First registered in 1979, this Shadow II was sold by Rolls-Royce in Kenning, spending its early life in London
- Powered by RR's venerable 6.75-litre V8 (rebuilt in 1987) coupled to the Hydramatic 4-speed automatic transmission
- Finished in Moorland Green over a beige leather interior with matching door cards, black top-roll and beige carpets
- Purchased by our vendor in 2019 for his Granddaughter's wedding, the vehicle was recommissioned for the occasion at a cost of just under £5,000
- Little use since apart from the odd pub trip and summer day out
- Supplied with its original handbooks, service book (25 stamps), period receipts and invoices, previous MOTs and the 2019 recommissioning invoice
- Still stylish, particularly in this rare colour and offered without reserve
