A square-cut, broad-shouldered design, the Rolls-Royce Silver Spirit was styled in-house by Austrian-born Fritz Feller. Although derived from that of the preceding Silver Shadow, the newcomer’s floorpan offered considerable improvements in both ride and handling thanks to its novel Girling automatic ride height control and gas shock absorbers. By combining copious amounts of sound deadening with the finest quality upholstery, Crewe's engineers kept intrusion from the 6.75 litre V8 engine and automatic transmission to a muted hush (unless the model's reputed 120mph potential was explored). Driver inputs were minimised with power-assisted steering and disc brakes. Only in production between 1980 and 1989, just 8,129 Rolls-Royce Silver Spirit Saloons are thought to have been made.

Manufactured in 1981, the Silver Spirit offered was supplied new to the United Kingdom and is presented in White paintwork with Beige leather interior upholstery. Previously a resident of Hyde Park Mansions, London, the Rolls-Royce is known to have spent a brief period in Northern Ireland in 2014, before being acquired by the vendor later that year. Offered for auction with just 31,000 recorded miles on the odometer, the Spirit is accompanied by a history file that contains the owner’s handbook, a collection of MOT certificates dating back to the 1990s, a selection of previous invoices for work and servicing, original sales literature, and a current V5C document.
