Power assisted rack-and-pinion steering, split-level air conditioning and a completely revised dashboard and control layout were just some of the many improvements introduced on the Silver Shadow II range in 1977, the V8 engine already having undergone enlargement to 6,750cc in 1970. To satisfy the chauffeur driven market, a long-wheelbase version, available with or without division, had been introduced in 1969, this lengthened Shadow being christened 'Silver Wraith II' on the introduction of the Shadow II range. A separate chassis having been abandoned, construction of this long-wheelbase model was entrusted to Rolls-Royce's in-house coachbuilder H J Mulliner, Park Ward Ltd, the required stretch being achieved by cutting a standard bodyshell in half and welding in extra panels. In keeping with the 'formal' tradition, the 'Wraith II came with a reduced-size, limousine-style rear window for greater privacy. Although ideally suited to 'official' duties and other formal work, the Silver Wraith appealed equally to owner-drivers and their families, who appreciated the increased roominess, particularly over long journeys.
At the time of its introduction a division-less Silver Wraith II cost £26,887, making it around 18% more expensive than the standard Shadow, which was already a very costly motor car. A total of 2,144 Silver Wraith IIs had been produced by 1980 when the model was replaced.
This Silver Wraith II Saloon with division was delivered new in March 1980, finished in Shell Grey with a red interior, through Scarritt Motors Inc. in Florida, USA.
The accompanying history file contains photocopies of the car's original build documentation, including detailed specifications, assembly notes, inspection and shipping records, as well as the original invoice dated 15 February 1980.
Maintained by its previous owner from 1998 to 2020, the car was serviced by Grosshofgarage AG Alois Sigrist and Garage-Huob Autogalerie, official Rolls-Royce specialists in Switzerland. The history includes invoices reflecting careful upkeep, and it is worth noting that the speedometer was replaced in 1998, with photographs documenting both the original unit and the newly installed one at the time.
The car underwent maintenance in May 2024, following a previous service in May 2022, which also included minor cosmetic touch-ups to the upholstery.
It is offered with one spare key, its Swiss carte grise (registration document). An expertise veteran was conducted on 15 July 2019.
