Footnotes

"That the Rolls-Royce Silver Spirit II upholds the values and virtues for which the marque is justly famous is beyond dispute. It remains a gloriously individual possession that signifies impeccable excellence and taste, an extravagant celebration of detail over function, a monument in the driveway and an occasion to drive." – Autocar.

Typically Rolls-Royce in so far as it represented evolution rather than revolution, the Silver Spirit and its long-wheelbase Silver Spur sibling were based on the preceding Silver Shadow II to which they bore a distinct family resemblance.

The Spirit/Spur had gained anti-lock brakes as standard equipment by the time the further-improved Series II arrived in 1990, the principal advance introduced on the 'II' models being electronically controlled adaptive suspension damping. "It has never been the intention of Rolls-Royce to introduce change unless significantly advancing the cause of driver an passenger comfort," the company declared, heralding the introduction of its advanced new suspension system.
No paperwork comes with the car and, since acquisition, the Spur II has been on static display. It will require recommissioning prior to road use.
