With plenty of money at the top of the market in the early
1970 s. Rolls-Royce decided to try and conquer a little bit more of
it by building a range-topping coupé to slot in above the Corniche
in the model range. Using the Silver Shadow underpinnings and
enlisting Pininfarina to style them. Rolls-Royce came up with the
Camargue - Britain's most expensive car at a launch price of
£29. 50. Pininfarina ended up styling something reasonably handsome
but also very derivative so there was a resemblance to a Fiat 130
coupé and Ferrari GT 4 2+2 designs. The 6. 50 cc. V 8 had extra power
and torque than the Corniche but. in truth. it didn't feel all that
different to drive which might explain why the Corniche outsold the
Camargue… that and. of course. the lofty price tag.
This example of a now. increasingly rare find. is presented in
Larkspur Blue with Nuella Stone interior which was re-upholstered
just five years ago and is in lovely condition. A very well cared
for example offering a wealth of history. including all original
handbooks and service book. this car was originally supplied by
Mann Egerton & Co. of Derby in April 1980 and has been serviced
and stamped 12 times in 1981. 1982. 1983. 1985. 1987. 1988. 1993. br/>1998 with Rolls Royce dealers. This beautiful Camargue is offered
with a wealth of invoices for recent care from Rolls-Royce
specialists. with recent works detailed in the history file
including a conversion to run on unleaded fuel and a Vortex
stainless steel exhaust system. The file also includes an Mo T test
certificate valid until May 2016 and V 5 registration document. An
opportunity to own an example of what was once the most expensive
car on the planet and what is becoming an increasingly rare
proposition.
