1974 Rolls-Royce Corniche Fixed Head Coupe 48000 genuine miles wonderful condition
Rolls-Royce Corniche Fixed Head Coupe (“FHC”)1974 48,000 genuine miles in absolutely wonderful condition This is a beautifully presenting Rolls-Royce Corniche coupe, finished in Ivory (pale yellow) with Havana brown Connolly hide leather interior. If you are wondering about the “winter photographs”, this Corniche was photographed in preparation for sale and immediately afterwards, a client asked us to hold the car. He recently elected to buy another of ours and so here we are. We thought the pictures were darling and that’s why they appear here in "winter format". The car has traversed only some 20 miles since these photos were taken.This is an amazing condition example with a low 48,000 miles from only 3 owners. The second last owner being a collector having caretaken her for more than 30 years, from which we purchased the car.
The car today, is in exemplary condition. Very straight, very clean, very true in all characteristics Rolls-Royce. The paint is deep in lustre and shine.The interior is an outstanding feature on this 2-door coupe. All the wood is entirely blemish free and looks fantastic. The window surrounds, carpet and roof-lining, are in immaculate condition. The Connolly hide leather is stunning. Never been redyed and not so much as even a touch-up, showing its original Connolly hide signature finish. This Corniche shows it off well with just the right amount of patina to look like, and feel like, a high-end Chesterfield couch. So inviting you want to just sit in it for no reason. This is an example that looks like it is only 15 years old. Notwithstanding, this Corniche has all the hallmarks of a well maintained example. Technically superb with all brakes/hydraulics working well. The car drives really smooth, without any bumps, rattles or knocks. It truly glides and “floats” like the Shadow and Corniches of this era were designed and built to do. Please remember, all Rolls-Royces Testament of its well maintained history is the cleanliness under the hood. Not detailed but appropriately maintained. The trunk presents just as well without so much as mark in the Wilton wool carpet.All external bright-work is well above standard and lights and lenses like new. The car is simply stunning to admire as well as drive.*We think the car would present fabulously with a full set of lambswool rugs in dark brown and a single chocolate fine-line down her waist-rail.
