When California real-estate tycoon Angelo Markoulis was in the market for a new Rolls-Royce, he knew that he wanted something truly special. Hence, he went straight to Cerrito Motor Coach Limited in San Jose, California, and commissioned a one-off Silver Spur with additions by in-house unit Hooper & Company Ltd. Named as a tribute to their former St James Street location in London, the ‘St James’ took almost a year to complete.

The Hooper conversion was extensive. Finished in two-tone Georgian Silver and Ocean Blue, external additions included an oversize sterling silver Flying Lady, power rear sunroof and special ‘Hooper’ and ‘St James’ badges on the boot. The interior was ordered in Light Blue Luxor leather and Grey piping, complemented by a Grey headliner and Mountain Blue carpets bound with Grey Luxor leather. Wood veneer picnic tables, cocktail cabinets and a television are available to those passengers in the back seats, while the dashboard holds an Alpine AM/FM stereo and equalizer with an Alphasonik Autosub.

In 1987, after driving the St James for 1,335 miles, the vehicle was put to rest in the family garage. Used sparingly since, when sold to the Netherlands in 2015, the odometer read just over 1,500 miles. The St James was shown at Concours d’Elegance Suisse in 2018 where it placed 1st in the Future Classiques, Berlines de Luxe 1980–1985 class. With such low mileage, it presents in exceptionally well-preserved condition throughout. A true one-off with almost every option possible, the ‘St James’ will surely attract collectors looking for something truly special.

Quand Angelo Markoulis, magnat californien de la promotion immobilière, a décidé d'acheter une Rolls-Royce neuve, il fallait qu'il s'agisse d'un modèle vraiment spécial. Par conséquent, il s'est rendu directement chez Cerrito Motor Coach Limited, à San Jose, en Californie, et a passé commande d'une Silver Spur unique dotée d'améliorations réalisées par la filiale Hooper & Company Ltd. Avec une appellation qui rendait hommage à l'ancienne adresse de Hooper, dans St-James Street à Londres, la "St James" a réclamé pratiquement un an de travail.

Cette conversion par Hooper était importante. Avec une peinture deux-tons "Georgian Silver" et "Ocean Blue", la voiture bénéficiait d'un équipement spécial, comme une "Flying Lady" de plus grande taille et en argent au sommet de la calandre, un toit ouvrant arrière et des inscriptions spéciales "Hooper" et "St James" sur le coffre. L'intérieur affichait un cuir "Light Blue Luxor" avec surpiqûres grises, complété par un ciel de toit gris et des moquettes "Mountain Blue" montées sur du cuir "Grey Luxor". Des tablettes de pique-nique en bois, des armoires à apéritif et une télévision agrémentaient le compartiment arrière, alors que le tableau de bord comportait un autoradio stéréo Alpine AM/FM et un équaliseur avec un Alphasonik Autosub.

En 1987, après avoir couvert 1 335 miles [2 148 km], la St James était entreposée dans le garage familial. Très rarement utilisée depuis, elle affichait un peu plus de 1 500 miles en 2015, quand elle a été vendue aux Pays-Bas. Plus récemment, la St James a été présentée en 2018 au Concours d’Élégance Suisse où elle a remporté le premier prix de la catégorie "Futures Classiques, Berlines de Luxe 1980–1985". Avec un kilométrage particulièrement bas, elle se présente dans un état exceptionnellement bien préservé à tous points de vue. Modèle unique doté de presque toutes les options possibles, la St James ne manquera pas d'attirer les collectionneurs recherchant quelque chose de vraiment spécial.
