Selling a 1974 Rolls-Royce Corniche?

The Rolls-Royce Corniche is an exclusive two-door automobile. Rolls-Royce only manufactured around 4,300 Corniche units, making it substantially rarer than its counterpart, the Silver Shadow.

The Corniche is designed to be one of the most luxurious and top-performing automobiles on the market in the 1970s. Its powerful 6.75-liter V8 engine and spacious interior perfectly represent the top-notch engineering and comfort that is associated with this timeless British automobile manufacturer.

“The entire process of selling my ’88 Rolls Silver Spirit was seamless. I sent the requested pictures, a brief mention of leaking steering rack, and within 48 hours had a cash offer. Once agreed to, the money was transferred into my bank account, I mailed the signed-off title and within a week, a transporter came to get the car. Someone was in contact with me almost daily. Very pleasant experience, and I would buy a car from them without reservation.”
