The Rolls-Royce Silver Spirit is a full-size luxury car produced by Rolls-Royce Motors in Crewe, England, from 1980 to 1997. It was the first model in the SZ series. The Silver Spur is a longer-wheelbase version of the Silver Spirit, produced from 1980 to 2000. It was the first car to feature a retractable Spirit of Ecstasy: the spring-loaded mascot lowered into the radiator shell when released.

Mark I
The Silver Spirit was introduced by Rolls-Royce in 1980 as the first of a new generation of executive cars. It formed the basis for the Flying Spur, Silver Dawn, Touring Limousine, Park Ward, and Bentley Mulsanne/Eight series. The Spirit/Spur adopted the Silver Shadow's basic design, incorporating its 6.75-liter L410 V8 engine and GM-produced THM400 three-speed automatic transmission, along with a Pressed Steel monocoque body styled after the Pininfarina-designed Camargue.

The Spur/Spirit continued the Silver Shadow's emphasis on ride comfort by utilizing its hydropneumatic self-leveling suspension, modified with the Girling automatic hydraulic ride-height control system, and gas-filled shock absorbers. In the United States, sealed-headlamps were installed due to long-standing regulations, while European law permitted the installation of more modern composite headlamps.

This Rolls-Royce presented here was originally delivered to the UK. Numerous service records and MOT (Motor Vehicle Inspection) documents from this English period, which lasted from 1983 to 2011, remain. Upon arrival in the Netherlands, this car was primarily serviced at BRABO in Hillegom. This is a renowned Rolls Royce and Bentley establishment. All of this can be seen in the extensive folder. Finally, the folder also includes a recent appraisal report. It's finished in deep blue metallic with light beige leather, a truly chic combination. Driving this limousine is certainly no punishment, as you glide along the road in a truly luxurious vehicle.
