Description

- Only 43,434 miles from new - First ownership from 1991/2016, just 2 owners in total - Highly desirable series III model - Finished in RR Royal Blue metallic - All tools, original hand books on file and factory issued service book Finished in Royal Blue metallic withTan Connelly hide, matching top role and Wilton carpets through the car including the boot. Everflex soft top with the correct English wool headlining fitted and matching Tan hood bag. Front head restraints, drivers airbag and inertia seat belts fitted for added safety. Delivered new through Carriage House Motor Cars Ltd - NY and built to order for the famed designer Jamie Drake. This Corniche stayed in the same single ownership from 1991 through to 2016 - where it resided at the glamorous NY address of 5th Avenue and in later years in Miami. The Corniches production spanned over two decades from 1971 to 1995. The car benefitted with continuous development, no more so than on series III cars, the front seats where now fully electric and benefitted with both memory and heated options. The wood work featured inlaid crossbanded burr walnut fascia. The digital instruments were deleted and analogue instruments fitted in their place. It was also the last of the cars to be fitted with conventional suspension set up rather then troublesome active ride system which was fitted as standard the following year. We know this example extremely well having sourced the car in 2016 and then repatriating back home to West London
