Buying or Selling a 1982 Rolls Royce Corniche

The Corniche is a luxury automobile that highlights the elegance and prestige thats associated with the Rolls-Royce name. The 1982 Rolls-Royce Corniche marks the eleventh year that this iconic two-door model has been in production. The Corniche was originally inspired by the two-door version of the Silver Shadow, one of the most popular cars Rolls-Royce manufactured. Unlike the Silver Shadow, the Corniche experienced limited production, which helped increase its prestigious image. Rolls-Royce designed this automobile to be the pinnacle of luxury, performance, and comfort. Its 6.75-liter aluminum V8 engine is powerful enough to reach a top speed of around 120 mph, despite the car’s large size and weight of nearly three tons. The Corniche was equipped with a hydraulic suspension and four-wheel ventilated disc brakes, which made stop-and-go traffic much smoother. Corniche models after 1979 had their carburetors switched with a fuel injection pump by Bosch, and rack-and-pinion steering was added around the same time. This helped ensure that the Rolls-Royce Corniche kept up with the pace of automotive technology during the time.
