Enquiry About The Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow Series 1

    Built from 1965 to 1980, the Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow was the first Rolls-Royce to be constructed using a monocoque chassis and to date has the largest production volume of any Rolls-Royce. 

    Despite being dimensionally more compact than the Silver Cloud it replaces, the Silver Shadow managed to offer greater passenger and luggage space thanks to its more space-efficient monocoque construction. Other modern features of the time include the use of disc brakes and a revised suspension that included a hydraulic self-levelling system.

    This beautiful example drives like how a Rolls-Royce should, and is presented in stately two-tone silver and grey coachwork, with matching grey leather and carpeting. The interior is topped off with burr walnut veneers and is in immaculate condition.
