Silver Shadow
Corniche
Phantom VI

Great Britain

ROLLS-ROYCE CORNICHE £15,637
£10,000 premiums for used models may be a thing of the past but with delivery dates stretching years ahead, a Corniche is still a good way to dodge depreciation. Coupe or convertible bodies are available and standard equipment on this top Rolls-Royce includes air conditioning, centralised locking, self-levelling suspension, triple braking systems. It reaches 100 m.p.h. in half a minute and has a three-year warranty.
ROLLS-ROYCE PHANTOM VI £17,461
The ultimate in chauffeur-driven luxury is found in the two bodies offered on the Phantom VI: the limousine or state landaulette by H. J. Mulliner/Park Ward. There is a separate chassis, a rare thing these days, and drum brakes are still used on all four wheels, though with Rolls-Royce's triple-safe operation system. Air conditioning is combined with separate heater-ventilation systems in front and rear compartments.
