This Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow I has had 4 registered keepers from new, the latest of whom has owned it since 2014. Its history file contains a good stack of MoTs covering 2000-2021, and various invoices covering the last decade. The odometer shows only 37,143 miles, which can not be verified but is consistent with the MoT record. The car is equipped with a very smart light grey/blue leather with blue rugs, and its exterior was treated to a thorough, high-quality respray a few years ago. The changed its colour from blue to silver, a fact which has not yet been recorded on the DVLA database.

The car was first registered by Murkett Brothers Ltd in Peterborough to a Hertfordshire buyer on 11th November 1971. Also included in the history file are a few tax discs, and the original handbook pack with a service book recording 6 services up to 29,510 miles in 1974.

The registration number is non-transferrable.
