Equipment
Painstaking re creation of this cars origil Barker coachwork after a term as a shooting brake and tourer using many origil parts from the early conversion by Lord Dundas and the shooting brake body. Spectacularly appointed. One of the very rare (only 6 earlier chassis are known) early Manchester built R Rs. Needs a gallon of Brasso and plenty of elbow grease, but its a showstopper. Offered by Christies as owner.
Market commentary
It is what it is, and it is spectacular, the very essence of the erect, formal but practical and reliable 40 50s that established Rolls Royces reputation. Its Edwardian enough to belong in a cartoon, but its real. Is the price right It sold. Is there an element of enthusiasm here This is what motorcar signifies.
