The story

The Silver Spur was the long-wheelbase flagship of the Silver Spirit generation, and this example carries the exclusive Parkertex interior specification — bespoke upholstery and additional cabin luxuries produced in strictly limited numbers.

The 6.75-litre V8 with then-new fuel injection delivers the marque's trademark effortless progress, while rear picnic tables in wood, burr walnut veneers and multi-adjustable electric seats complete a supremely refined package for the connoisseur of classic British luxury.
