Chassis number: SGT613C
Registration number: UK applied for.

A rare car in very fine condition with 2 door aluminium coachwork by Mulliner Park Ward. This car has been based in Vienna in recent years & before that was one of the star exhibits in the Vonnier collection in Dornbirn Austria. The owner just purchased a superb pre war Rolls Royce car from us & we took this car in part exchange against it.

Finished in Oxford blue. the car was the recipient of a recent bare metal respray & thus presents superbly. To the interior is original Grey leather with just the right degree of patination. The woodwork is highly figured walnut & was recently removed from the car in its entirety & refinished to a high standard without being too glossy.

The Austrian owner is a fastidious custodian who has lavished care & money on the car without regard to expense. The car drives absolutely beautifully. The suspension is supple & silent; The engine imperceptible; The car has a strong "go anywhere" feel to it & shrugged off the trip from Vienna to our showroom without effort. The car has just turned 110. 00 miles & indeed did so about 100 miles short of Calais on the journey home.

The car is fitted with four excellent tyres. The Brakes have just been fully rebuilt & relined. There are a plethora of other bills from the current ownership showing numerous purchases from the Various UK suppliers of Rolls Royce parts & also invoices from Bentley Vienna. Great care has been taken to ensure everything works as it ought. The electric windows for example were deemed to be going up too slowly so the mechanism were disassembled & parts replaced as required so they now go up quickly & silently at the touch of a button.

Under the bonnet the car is very well detailed & extremely tidy. The engine fires up instantly. has very good compressions & burns no oil. It is of a standard where one would be proud to show it at a meeting. A Cloud III handbook comes with the car. The boot is carpeted in blue Wilton carpet & is in excellent order. New rubbers have been fitted to the windscreen & rear window whilst the car was painted. Great care was taken to make up a correct shaped plywood orifice & the rubbers fitted to it & shaped using a steam kettle to ensure a perfect fit when put in the car. The bright-work is likewise in very nice order.

We are in the process of UK registering the car. having sent the Austrian plates back to the cars owner.
