• Delivered new in the UK • Right-hand drive • Not registered • Swiss customs duties paid As the factory did not offer a Silver Cloud convertible or drophead coupé, a coachbuilt car was the only option if one's preference was Rolls-Royce-style fresh-air motoring.

By far the most striking are those bodied to Norwegian Vilhelm Koren's design and coachbuilt by Park Ward; these models, with quad headlamps, constitute the majority of coachbuilt variants completed between 1962 and 1966.

This Silver Cloud III drophead coupé was delivered new in the UK through HR Owen.

Accompanying documentation consists of a copy of its Rolls-Royce build sheet and a 2003 document from the Rolls-Royce Museum in Austria to previous Swiss owner Mr Bucheli stating that John Lennon was a former owner.

There are no registration documents, but Swiss customs duties have been paid.
