Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud I: As They Should Be

We are delighted to present this exceptional Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud I. This model can trace it's origins back to the early post-war Bentley Mark VI. This low mileage example is finished in the famous 2-tone 'Sand over Sable' colour, replete with original beige hide interior that smells as it did when it left the factory in 1959.

Is this the most perfectly designed automobile think so.

The Silver Clouds were, in my humble opinion, the last true Rolls Royce motor car.

[russellmalone]

What an absolute beautiful example of a wonderful motor car ❤

I’ve seen plenty of YouTube videos featuring various Silver Clouds and in my humble opinion after repairing them over the past 50 years I can state that this example is practically perfect. (Except for radial tyres, which is no bad thing)

I was fortunate to have owned a 1955 Bentley S1 and a 1957 Rolls-Royce SC1. They were my idea of true luxury and fun to drive! At 84, I still remember the thrill of "arriving in a Royce"!

this is my favourite era of shape is gorgeous

[sprezzatura]

From a time when people who could buy thes cars did not want attention. They had class and discretion. Cloud 1 straight-6 my favorite.

Simply stunning, elegance and grace, I adore this era of Rolls Royce.

This car in the winter on long rainy dark roads, relying on your chauffeur.

To me the most beautifull Rolls Royce ever, specialy the two tone collorsceme makes them look long and sleek .
The dashboard is a piece off art in its own, georgious cars ! ❤

I enjoyed that. What a superb original looking Cloud. I like this post 1958 final development of the six cylinder engine with its Continental cylinder head, higher compression and larger 2" Carbs. I can smell the original leather from here. Very interesting and nicely driven. Thank you Nick.

The silver cloud and the silver shadow are just stunning 😊

[albertpeckham]

Such an elegant automobile! Probably the best mid-century design in the automobile world! Thanks for sharing.

Having been privileged as a child to enjoy frequent trips in a Silver Cloud lll ( my aunt ), my heart misses a beat whenever I see a Rolls Royce Silver Cloud. Your beautiful description is fitting - watched the video several times.

In my opinion this is the best model that Rolls Royce ever produced in every way, and it's this model that made me fall in love with Rolls Royce and Bentley.
I first saw one in the late 1950s at Harrogate Show in Yorkshire, that was it i was smitten, and it's the model I've always wanted to own, they are simply (A HAVEN OF TRANQUILITY), it hasn't happened yet LOL, but I'm very happy with my 1980 Silver Shadow 2.
This is a real beauty in every way, great presentation, and great video, thanks for sharing and have subscribed.

When you opened the door, I could smell the leather through my phone.

[mreckes]

The very last of the great looking Rolls-Royce's.

[hughwalker]

I never took to the twin headlamps of the later Silver Cloud. I think the mk 1 found the car at its best. If I had the money, I'd be going in search of one but the chances of finding one as original as this example are pretty slim. What a find for you!

[colingianella]

Excellent example of a Silver Cloud. One slight error in the description is that on very early cars, a manual gearbox was available. With my 50 plus years as a Rolls Royce engineer, I have seen just the one example of a column change manual gearbox.

[chriskappert]

So unbelievably more stylish and beautifull, than the modern day German tanks .
To me the best ever Rolls Royce . ❤
