Selling a Classic Rolls-Royce??

Some Things You Should Know:

I’m a buyer of vintage Rolls Royce, but like any owner, I’m also a big big fan!

The “Rolls Royce” brand finds its genesis with the initiative of two men: Henry Royce and Charles Rolls. Royce was an engineering genius, while Rolls was something of a sage in the area of marketing.

Together the two were a force of nature. Their legendary joint signature first found its way onto the Rolls-Royce 10 HP, which today looks something like an old chair glued to an engine and wheels, but knowing what came after it, you can’t help but stand in awe.

A Brief History

Rolls Royce ltd. was born two years after the 10 HP in 1906, and the history of the company can’t be overstated. Rolls Royce ltd. churned out vehicles and vehicle parts for the British military that saw heavy use in both World Wars. They bought out Bentley in 1931 and the two names became united in a way, sharing both fame and mechanical ingenuity.

In the decades following World War II they expanded and further entrenched themselves as a popular producer of luxury cars. However, Rolls Royce ltd. eventually fell into financial chaos and the automotive wing of the company broke from the main branch in 1973. “Rolls Royce Motors” remained independent for several years after the nationalization of the main branch, but in 1980 it was bought out by Vickers and later sold to Volkswagen in 1998. After a somewhat murky agreement, the license to the Rolls Royce name fell into the hands of BMW, where it still lies today.

1975 Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow

“We recently became responsible for selling a well preserved, running 1975 Silver Shadow RR 4 dr. sedan by way of the death of a very close friend who owned the car among a small collection of vintage Rolls Royce cars as his appointed successor trustee to his estate since no heirs wanted it. We had little interest in the San Francisco area among several places that sold and repaired such cars on consignment and decided to look at the Southern California market. In looking at the 3-4 primary dealerships that dealt in Rolls Royce we found on line Alex Manos Custom Classic Car business an called them directly and principally dealt with Abraham Castallenos. They initially asked for the photos and the video of the car running since it was located in Northern California at the deceased second home in Mendocino county. We had very good multiple photos of the vehicle and from then on we could not have had a better experience in selling the car for our dear friend’s estate on behalf of his heirs. The entire process , negotiations of the sale, price, the immediate payment only based on our photos and emails, even without Abraham nor Alex having seen the actual vehicle, basically all conducted on faith alone, to his outfit picking up the vehicle in Mendocino with a special two axle trailer to our trustee picking up the check at the warehouse and main office building where the classic cars are stored and on display could not have gone smoother without any hitches. The overall experience could not have been conducted better we feel other than feeling some remorse in letting the car go after becoming fond of it and having driven it in the Mendocino and doing some minor repairs on the vehicle. We felt good that Alex and Abraham would do well by it to restore it and find an eventual good and worthy home for the classic car in remarkable shape we thought for a 1975 classic Rolls Royce car.”

“First off my transaction was very quick, and professional. If you are considering a sale of your car, know that this company is in business for profit, and you may not get what you want for your car. That being said, they handle things expertly and quickly, set up shipping quickly, fast payment and friendly staff.”

“I contacted AlexManos.com at the suggestion of a friend, who had a Rolls Royce he wanted to sell. It was obvious from the start that Alex knew this market like the back of his hand. He quickly assessed my friend’s need, then referred me to Jarrod Roberts. Jarrod was likewise very professional, knowledgeable and prompt. My friend’s car sold within a day!! It was a pleasure dealing with the professional staff at AlexManos.com. 5-Stars!”
