Rolls-Royce Silver Spur (1980 to 1999)

The Rolls-Royce Silver Spur was the short-wheelbase variant of the Rolls-Royce Silver Spur & Spirit. These luxury sedans and limousines were built in four evolutions, the Silver Spur I, Silver Spur II, Silver Spur III, and the New Silver Spur (sometimes known as the Silver Spur IV, but that name was never officially used by Rolls-Royce). A 6.75L V8 engine powered these cars, with an automatic transmission sending drive to the rear wheels. Although the majority of examples of the Silver Spur were sold in a sedan body style, a large range of these cars were built into limousines by the factory, as well as a number of aftermarket coachbuilders. Production of the Silver Spur lasted until 1999.
