Introduced in 1995 as part of the final evolution of the SZ-series cars, the Rolls-Royce Silver Dawn was produced in limited numbers and represented the height of hand-built craftsmanship at Crewe before the arrival of the Silver Seraph.
Sharing its platform with the Bentley Brooklands but with its own distinctive elegance, the Silver Dawn combined classic Rolls-Royce grace with contemporary comfort and refinement.
The example offered here is quite remarkable.
First registered in 1997, it is believed to be the final Silver Dawn to have been produced at Crewe.
It has clearly been cherished from new, showing only 30,255 miles at the time of cataloguing and accompanied by an extraordinary service record of 34 stamped entries.
Such maintenance is almost unheard of, reflecting a lifetime of careful ownership and diligent upkeep.
Finished in Black Emerald Mica, a deep and sophisticated shade that suits the car’s presence perfectly, the paintwork remains excellent throughout.
