6751cc OHV 90-degree V8 engine Bosch K-Motronic fuel injection 215bhp at 4,200rpm Four-speed GM4L80 automatic transmission Four-wheel independent adaptive suspension Disc brakes both front and rear *One of 219 examples built *Same owner since 2003 *Driven and properly maintained for the past 17 years THE ROLLS-ROYCE CORNICHE IV It is often said the last of the breed is the most refined, and with over two decades of tweaking and perfecting under its belt by 1993, this is certainly true for this Corniche. Originally debuting in 1971, the elegant design by John Polwhele Blatchley proved to stand the test of time, as the exterior styling of the car went largely unchanged throughout its quarter of a century production history. The Corniche IV was the last of the breed, benefiting from the improvements of the previous three models (including ABS, airbags, better ergonomics, and minor stylistic changes) as well as receiving a glass rear window, a power top that required no latching, and an improved A/C system. Only 219 MK IV were produced, making that version the rarest, most sophisticated, and desirable Corniche. THE MOTORCAR OFFERED The Corniche IV presented here was purchased by the seller in 2003 who is the second owner of the car. Using it as a daily driver in the first years of his ownership, he then used it at least once a week to run errands and mostly for Sunday drives. It is known that these cars need to be driven to keep working properly, which explains why the seller made a point to use it as much as he could. Additionally, these cars require high level and frequency of maintenance, which again, the owner did, sparing no cost and compiling a large amount of service invoices from 2003 until today. The car also got most of its upholstery remade earlier this year, including a new convertible top, front seats, armrests, and door interiors. The full invoices file as well as the three set of keys will be handed to the buyer after the sale. The Carfax is clean and shows good maintenance even prior to the seller's ownership. Showing just under 45,000 miles, that elegant Tudor Red Corniche is ready to meet its new owner.
