Rolls-Royce 1981-2006
If you are in the market for a post-1981 Rolls-Royce then be prepared to spend a few decades and lots of money on maintenance before it starts to show a return.
Prices for the Spirit and Spur have increased, reflecting the quality of cars in the sample. In the past – this segment could turn up some pretty appalling $10,000 money pits.
Later Spirit II and III can be priced at more than $50,000, however most are no more expensive than a late-1980s version.
We suspect, given these cars sell in the USA at A$80-100,000, that the one-off Seraph on offer at almost $250,000 was ‘testing the market’.
Silver Spirit 1981-89 $37,550 [18]
Silver Spur 1982-90 $39,875 [5]
Silver Spur/Spirit 1991-97 $44,000 [9]
Silver Seraph $245,750 [1]
