1977 Rolls-Royce Corniche Convertible
UK • 6 Aug 2025
Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1976 Rolls Royce, in the same family for 15+ years, features a more powerful Series Two engine and a desirable Nutmeg bronze with chocolate leather interior. While the body and woodwork could use refreshing, and a brake caliper needs attention, the car comes with extensive history, build sheets, and recent service records.
Condition
6
The car is described as being in respectable condition for its age but would benefit from a refresh. The interior leather is in good order, but the woodwork needs refurbishment. Mechanically, it's running, but a brake caliper sticks. There are some service records, but the service book isn't stamped.
