Description
The Silver Shadow was hailed as a landmark model in the history of Rolls-Royce, arguably the most important in the company's long and distinguished history. With the long awaited adoption of monocoque construction techniques, the coachbuilt derivatives of the Silver Shadow were limited to a 2-Door in either fixed-head or convertible guise. Virtually hand-crafted by H.J.Mulliner Park Ward in tiny numbers, these fearsomely expensive cars were rebadged as the Corniche in March 1971, named after coast roads snaking around the French Riviera.
With values of the Silver Shadow now starting to firm up, investing in one of the much rarer and altogether more stylish Corniche derivatives makes excellent financial sense as they will ultimately appreciate at a faster rate than the more common four-door model.
