Description:

1936 Rolls-Royce 25/30 Limousine
29.4bhp, (RAC) six-cylinder 4,257cc, overhead pushrod valves, Stromberg downdraught carburetors, fourspeed gearbox with synchromesh third and fourth gears, semi-elliptic front and rear suspension with hydraulic shock dampers and four-wheel drum brakes. Wheelbase: 132"
The example offered here is a right hand drive model that remains in very near original condition and retains its original solid and reliable engine. The Rolls-Royce is finished in black over burgundy, with gold trim lines, and complemented by a charming interior done in brown leather and wool carpets. Bodied as a Limousine, this example would have had some of the most luxurious coachwork that was available at the time. It has original “suicide” opposite opening doors and a glass divider, with individual trays – the occupants were clearly traveling first class. The vehicle also features a flip forward, front windshield, as well as fender mounted mirrors, dual side mounted spares and B-pillar semaphore mechanical flush mounted turn signals. The paint appears to be largely original and considering its age, in excellent condition.
The engine registers 41,000 miles, very likely original, and is equipped with the original wheel wrench and onboard jack system lever. Unfortunately, other original tools housed in the engine bay are missing. A highly original Mayfair bodied Rolls-Royce, this car is in excellent condition and is certainly worth viewing in person. Mayfair only produced the coachwork for Rolls-Royce from 1935 to 1937 making this a very rare and desirable example of a 25/30 Rolls-Royce motor car.
