The Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud was the core model of the
Rolls-Royce Motor Cars range from April 1955 until March 1966. It
replaced the Silver Dawn and was. in turn. replaced by the Silver
Shadow. The J. P. Blatchley design was a major change from the
pre-war models and the highly derivative Silver Dawn. As part of a
range rationalisation. the Bentley S1 is also very similar apart
from. of course. its radiator grill.
This Silver Cloud has had a colourful recent history to match the
pearlescent orange wrap it is presented with today. The car. we are
told. was not only well looked after but regularly serviced in its
former life as a run of the mill Silver Cloud before a full body
re-spray and restoration work was undertaken in approximately 2004.
This saw it transformed from its original green to Shell over Tudor
Grey. a combination many would agree. compliments the car very
well. At this point the car was offered to the market for sale at
over £30. 00. A budding film producer armed with a new script and
looking for financial backing for a movie then decided that this
particular Cloud would be a suitable PR machine in which to paint
or wrap in an un-missable colour. drive to the Cannes film festival
and thus drum up the required support for his venture… and so he
did!

Unfortunately we do not know the fate of the script but we do
know the car certainly would have turned heads and made it
successfully back to London. we are informed it had since had a
light service and the brakes overhauled. Having driven the car. we
can testify that this appears to be the case. The general condition
appears to be reasonable for such a journeyed car. The leather
interior is in fair condition considering its age and unfortunately
we cannot comment on the car under the wrap. prospective bidders
are advised to satisfy themselves in this respect.

Offered with an original Rolls-Royce handbook. V5 registration
documents. recent MoT certificates and recent invoices. this is
certainly a showstopper in orange or could be a very tidy project
for the connoisseur. you certainly will not overlook it in the
auction room.
