1978 Rolls Royce Silver Shadow 2


Specifications


Description

The Silver Shadow is the epitome of luxury motoring.

Its name always stood for unbeatable comfort and luxury, and the Silver Shadow delivers these attributes in spades. Settle into the gentleman's club interior and there is a huge feel-good factor, and as you gaze down the bonnet to the iconic ‘Spirit of Ecstasy',  it's hard not to feel a sense of real pride. Driving a Rolls has that effect somehow.

On the road, the Shadow II settles down to a sedate pace, gently guiding the delicately-rimmed wheel with your fingertips. There is enough poke if you want it though, a prod of the throttle causing the nose to rise majestically as the old girl gathers up her skirts. In a Rolls, however, its far better instead to relax, and enjoy the wonderful surroundings.
