The Silver Spirit range of cars, introduced in October 1980, was based on the Silver Shadow II base unit, using the same engine and drivetrain, but with revised rear suspension and mineral oil hydraulics first seen on the coachbuilt Corniche and Camargue. The Silver Shadow II was replaced by the Silver Spirit, the Silver Wraith II by the Silver Spur and the Bentley T2 by the superbly named Mulsanne. A few days before the new range was announced, Rolls-Royce Motors merged with Vickers to become the largest member of that Group.

The main objectives set forth for the new line during the design phase fell into two categories – that of appearance and the technical aspects. The new saloon coachwork was more modern, more angular, incorporated a low waistline and one third greater glass area than its predecessor. It also displayed a greater eye-catching presence and looked appreciably larger. It was, in fact, three inches longer and a little over two inches wider than the prior car. The familiar Rolls-Royce radiator shape was, of course, retained, though in a wider, more-squat form than that of the earlier cars and rather like the one utilized on the Camargue.

The Silver Spur being offered is presented in white with a white and blue interior; it has been in the same family since it was new. This luxury auto is powered by a 6.8-liter V-8 engine that is connected to an automatic transmission. They are also fitted with four-wheel disc brakes. The car is in original condition and has been driven sparingly over its past 27-years. Elegant, as always, the interior features Connolly leather hides and exquisite burled wood trim elements. These cars are richly appointed with most conveniences one would expect. During the 1980 to 1989 production period of the Rolls-Royce Silver Spur, approximately 6,240 similar cars were built, these cars are uncommon by even the strictest of standards.
