Seller's comments about 1934' Rolls-Royce 20/25
This Elegant Rolls with a Mann Egerton body was purchased from The Real Car Co of Bethesda, North Wales some years ago and extensively refurbished by the then owner as a lockdown project. It has Chassis No. GWE32 with the matching Engine of 3587cc capacity. It is now mechanically excellent, drives well and looks pleasantly mature without being overly finessed.
It comes ready to use with engine, brakes, suspension, steering and gearbox all refurbished, serviced and working well. It starts easily, ticks over smoothly and has a surprising reserve of power on the road. It has a modern radiator core and electric fan tucked behind the original core to give reliable cooling under modern traffic conditions. The original headlights were re-chromed at great cost and the coachwork, internal woodwork and cloth are all very presentable. The spacious back has two folding spare seats although they would only be suitable for size-challenged folk! It comes with the original build sheets, reams of receipts for work over the years and photographs from its past. The documentation on the 5 owners since first purchased by Sir Andrew Agnew in 1934 makes interesting reading and there is a summary of its history included. A handbook and a copy of Nick Walker’s book on the model is included.
Only 3827 such 20/ 25 models were made and they represent the peak of sedate 1930’s motoring. Prices have remained steady and now furnish a bulwark against impending inflation.
