Offered with an impressive and comprehensive history file which includes invoices back to 1979, MOT test certificates back to 1980 and tax discs back to 1981. Also included in the history file are copies of the factory build records, correspondents from previous owners and a stamped service book. This beautiful Silver Shadow remains in exceptional condition having been maintained to a very high standard. The Tan leather is soft and supple, the original fawn carpets in equally fine order and the polished woodwork is perfect. The bodywork and beautiful Peacock Blue paint are very pleasing as is the exterior brightwork. Overall, this very late, low ownership and mileage Silver Shadow is a very fine example indeed.
