The Rolls Royce Silver Seraph was hand built in the Crewe Cheshire factory and production ran from 1998-2002 with a base price of around £155,000.00 it was the second most expensive Rolls Royce produced second only to the Corniche. Fitted with a BMW 5.4 Litre V12 engine and a 5 speed automatic transmission. This Rolls Royce Silver Seraph was supplied 23/03/2000 by Straight Eight (New Forest Ltd) Hampshire in deep aqua blue with tangier leather seats, centre consul, headlining, parcel shelf,under dash, and sun visors. With French navy top roll, steering wheel, steering column, rear ash trays, and seat piping. With dark blue carpets bound in tangier leather. Fitted with Navy lambs wool over mats, electrically operated windows, mirrors, seats etc. Both front and rear seats are heated with rear passenger picnic tables. Alpine multi cd player and satellite navigation. Extra cost options fitted include 2 RR umbrellas, rouched fan seat style and waist-rail stainless motifs-RR.
This Rolls Royce is in fantastic order and must be seen to be appreciated. However there is a discrepancy with the vehicles mileage and it would appear that at least one of the servicing stamps has been altered. The car was showing 144492 miles when it was MOT tested 01/04/2009 but then showed 42505 at its next MOT 25/01/2010. Previous MOT results show the mileage to be high and so it must be presumed that the vehicles mileage has been altered in 2009. This has been taken in to account with the vehicles low estimate but the condition of the vehicle is fantastic.
The engine management light is also illuminated and shows a brake pressure fault. The batteries will also not hold charge and will require replacement. The Rolls is supplied with its original book pack 2 x keys and receipts for servicing work totaling thousands of pounds (see the condition report for service information).
Private Registration Number R5 PJY is included within the sale.
