The Rolls-Royce Silver Seraph was first unveiled on 3rd March, 1998 at the Geneva Motor Show. It replaced the Silver Spur which ended production in 1997. All Seraphs were hand-built at the Rolls-Royce factory in Crewe, England, which stopped making Rolls-Royce models in 2002 but continued with Bentley. The car had a base price of £155,175 in the UK and was powered by a 5.4 litre aluminium alloy BMW V12 engine, making it the first twelve-cylinder Rolls-Royce since the 1939 Phantom III. Standard electronics included digital engine management, adaptive ride control and anti-lock brakes.
Inside, the Rolls-Royce Silver Seraph and the Bentley Arnage were similar but quite distinct from one another. In the Seraph, the gear selector was column-mounted and the gauges followed a traditional Rolls-Royce layout . In both cars, the seats and dashboard were upholstered in Connolly leather, with dashboard trim and folding picnic trays for rear passengers and glossy burr walnut veneer.
This delightful Rolls-Royce was registered in May 2000 and presents extremely well in possibly the best colour combination for this model of dark blue metallic coachwork contrasted with magnolia trim. Both the paintwork and trim appear in good order. This Seraph is offered to auction with a valid MoT test certificate, a V5c registration document and various bills and receipts for service work undertaken. The Rolls-Royce marque still conjures up a magical feeling amongst drivers and enthusiasts alike. This example offers classic British motoring at a fraction of its original cost.
