Buyer’s notes

About the Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow II

The Silver Shadow II of 1977 to 1980 was named for its biggest change, rack-and-pinion steering, with revised front suspension that improved the handling. It kept the Shadow’s high-pressure hydraulics for the brakes and self-levelling suspension, and the aluminium doors, bonnet and boot lid.

What moves the price

  • Condition of the hydraulics and steering, which are costly to put right.
  • Rust, which separates a good car from a money pit.
  • History: specialist servicing on record, including hydraulic fluid changes.

Before you buy, check

  • The wheel arches, both ends of the sills, the valances, the inner wings near the front strut mounts and the boot floor.
  • The high-pressure brake and suspension hydraulics: leaks, and evidence the fluid has been changed.
  • The steering for leaks and worn joints, and every servo and motor for proper operation.
