Description
The car remained in the family's collection after the owner—an esteemed member of the Swedish Rolls-Royce Club and a collector of over 20 Rolls-Royce vehicles—sadly passed away in 2023. Since then, the car has seen only light use, mostly short local drives. Today, the mileage stands at just 67,000 km (41,953 miles).
It has been meticulously maintained, most recently by Rolls-Royce specialist Bernt Hansen in Denmark, with service invoices from 2023–2024 totaling just under 200,000 SEK.
Now 25 years old, the car is in remarkable condition—both visually and mechanically—a true testament to Rolls-Royce craftsmanship and build quality.
Technical data
Condition
-
Mechanical condition
The engine starts instantly—now operated via a non-original push-start button—and runs smoothly with a refined idle. On the road, the automatic gearbox shifts effortlessly, and the suspension delivers the signature Rolls-Royce glide over bumps. There are two warning lights currently showing: "Brake Pressure Sensor" and "Traction Off." These do not affect drivability, but the rear right suspension does produce a creaking sound over bumps, likely due to worn bushes, which will need attention. The car has just passed a new inspection and is ready to be driven home.
-
Interior condition
Step inside, and you're welcomed by a sea of supple leather and rich wood trim, delivering the ultimate in comfort and classic Rolls-Royce luxury. The leather seats are in excellent condition, showing only minimal signs of use and no damage. All interior woodwork presents beautifully, with just a small imperfection on the right rear trim near the roof (see picture).
Leather panels, door cards, carpets, and headliner are all in superb shape. Every electric feature functions exactly as it should—seats, mirrors, windows, and the soft-top roof all operate flawlessly. The instrumentation is fully working, and the air conditioning blows ice cold, just as you’d expect. -
Exterior condition
The car presents itself beautifully, with straight, undamaged bodywork and no signs of rust—above or underneath. The paintwork is exceptionally bright and clean, with only a few minor marks noted on the rear bumper and corner. All chrome trim remains shiny and in excellent condition. The electric soft-top is in good condition and operates smoothly. There are only a few small marks, and some minor wear can be seen on the interior side where the roof folds—see pictures for details.
-
General condition
This is a rare opportunity to purchase a superb example of Rolls-Royce’s flagship Corniche V. We've set a very realistic price, taking into account the minor issues noted—such as the warning light and suspension noise. The car still runs and drives exceptionally well, offering the full Rolls-Royce experience. Comparable examples are currently selling for €120,000–€140,000 abroad, making this a fantastic value for a collector or enthusiast.
