Chassis No SCAZDO2C5RCX50015 is a 1994 model year car, completed in late 1993. It was originally ordered to be delivered new to Switzerland, but for reasons unknown the order was cancelled, and it was then delivered new to Italy. It is built to Swiss/European specification, finished in royal blue with a blue hood and parchment leather interior, as it remains today. The car was exported to Japan before returning to the UK in 2020 at which point we were commissioned to prepare it for the current owner. The works included a thorough mechanical review, a new hood and various cosmetic improvements to get the car to showroom condition. The present owner has used it over the past few summers, driving from his home in the UK to various destinations in Europe. It has covered 61,700 kilometres from new and was recently serviced in our workshops. It presents beautifully and drives superbly, a top class modern classic Rolls-Royce motor car.

It was announced in 1981 by Rolls-Royce that the production of the fixed head coupe Corniche would cease, with the decision taken to concentrate solely on convertible motor cars. The stylish coachwork by Mulliner/Park Ward was designed by legendary stylist John Blatchley and was assembled and finished in London. Constant improvements were made during production of Corniche convertibles, culminating in 1993 with the release of the Series IV model. This proved to be the final chapter in this ever popular models' development. Production was switched at this time to Crewe with the final models fitted with a glass back window, which was a major upgrade from the previous plastic rear window. The hood mechanism was also improved and no longer required manual latches, instead sealing automatically. The Series IV motor cars were produced in very limited numbers and are rarely available, making them highly collectible.
