Description
Launched in 1929, the Rolls-Royce 20/25 was powered by a 3669cc OHV straight-six engine allied to four-speed manual transmission.
Usefully faster than its 20hp predecessor, the model remained in production until 1936 by which time some 3,827 had been sold.
Capable of supporting a wide variety of coachwork, the 20/25hp's substantial ladder frame chassis was equipped with all-round semi-elliptic leaf-sprung suspension, four-wheel drum brakes and a mechanical servo.
Originally built for Capt.
Arthur Granville Soames, it is believed 'ALW 20' (Chassis GBA8) was used by Winston Churchill's daughter, whose father-in-law was Capt.
Soames.
Mary Spencer-Churchill (Baroness/ Lady Soames 1922 - 2014), married Capt.
A.G. Soames' son, Christopher Soames (Baron/ Lord Soames1920 - 1987), in 1947.
Presented in Black over Blue, the interior is finished in Brown leather.
The interior has been re-trimmed previously, with new carpets, headlining and a re-covered roof.
