If you would like a 75 year old daily driver then this 1948 Rolls-Royce Silver Wraith could be the reliable and recently restored example you're after. This is a drivers car for someone that actually wants to use it rather than something to be stored away, as all the hard work has been done for you..
Currently used for dropping the kids to school, popping down to the shops, cruising down country lanes on numerous Rolls Royce Club events or flying along the freeway. Great for a luxurious weekend away, up or down the coast. It's just as happy in city traffic without overheating, as it is keeping up with other traffic at 100kph and is surprisingly nippy for it's age.
The vehicle has been lovingly restored and there's absolutely nothing further to do either mechanically, electrically or from an interior or exterior perspective. Just turn the key and drive. This Rolls Royce has been newly trimmed in cream leather in the rear for the 'owner' and black leather in the front for the 'chauffeur'.
Currently on full rego and seats 7
Over $100,000 spent on the recent upgrade. There's a full electronic catalogue of invoices and pictures detailing the restoration, from a well known Sydney Rolls Royce specialist who continues to service it regularly.
Originally delivered to the UK High Commission and then assigned to Baron Hives, Chairman of Rolls Royce for 9 years.
