1939 Rolls-Royce Wraith

Find us at deanemotors.ie As a lady or gentleman of significant wealth and impeccable taste in 1930’s London, nothing would do but a Rolls Royce. This truly magnificent motor car is a 1939 Rolls Royce Wraith and still has more style and presence 86 years on than most cars could ever hope for. First registered on July 29th 1939 with a body from Park Ward Coachwork of 40 Conduit Street, London (right next to Saville Row) and supplied by Jack Barclay at a cost of £9,087, this Wraith was beautifully specified and its original build sheet is still present with the car today. The voluptuous two-tone bodywork with its hand-paint pinstripes, iconic grill and double “suicide doors” is bettered only by its sensational interior with acres of walnut trim, sumptuous leather seats, sunroof, glass partition, and beautiful details wherever you look. The car underwent an extensive restoration in 1996 at a cost of over £48k and its quality is evident as the car still presents beautifully today with the exception of some slight patina here and there. Although designed as a car to be driven in, rather than drive, the experience behind the wheel is incredible. The view out over the long bonnet, the manual gear change by the driver’s door and the smooth delivery of the 4.3 straight-six all make for an intoxicating drive. Presented with a huge history file including period correspondence with Rolls Royce, this Wraith is a truly remarkable example of what Rolls Royce stands for and represents excellent value for money. **Viewing strictly by appointment.
