The Rolls-Royce Silver Spirit and its long-wheelbase sibling, the Silver Spur, were introduced in 1980 as the successors to the long-running Silver Shadow. Built on the new SZ platform, they carried over the venerable 6.75-liter L-series V8 and a GM-sourced 3-speed automatic transmission. A key change was the move away from the Shadow's complex hydropneumatic suspension to a more conventional gas-charged shock system with a Girling automatic hydraulic ride height control for the rear.

These models represent the final chapter of Rolls-Royce as an independent British carmaker before the brand's acquisition by BMW. Collectors appreciate them as an affordable entry into the world of hand-built luxury. The sheer presence and opulent interior, filled with Connolly leather and burr walnut, offer an experience unmatched by modern cars at this price point. The Silver Spur, with its extra rear legroom, is particularly desirable for those who want the full chauffeur-driven experience.

Buying Tips

  • Insist on a complete and documented service history. The cost of catching up on deferred maintenance can easily exceed the car's value.
  • Scrutinize the hydraulic system, which powers the brakes and rear self-leveling suspension. Check for leaks and ensure the brake warning lights extinguish properly. The system uses a specific green mineral oil (LHM).
  • Check for rust thoroughly, especially on earlier models. Key areas include the wheel arches, lower wings, sills, and around the front and rear screens.
  • Test all electronics. Power windows, seats, climate control, and dashboard gauges can all be sources of expensive and frustrating repairs.
