1920 Rolls Royce 40/50hp Silver Ghost Alpine Eagle Skiff Torpedo.

Registration No: 4928DG

Chassis No: 40FW

There is a total absence of wear to the throttle pedal & it drives with a tight taut together feel that one comes to expect from these low mile examples.

The first owner of this magnificent Silver Ghost Alpine Eagle was textile manufacturing entrepreneur and racehorse breeder Marcel Boussac, who at that time was regarded as the wealthiest man in France (the Prix Marcel Boussac horserace is still run at Longchamps to this day). It is also worth mentioning that in addition to the Alpine Eagle specification mentioned in the build sheets, the chassis is designated 'high speed'.

Boussac had his sporting Silver Ghost beautifully bodied by Labourdette, one of the oldest of Parisian master coachbuilders, and the result, with its dual cowl and long doors, is undeniably very elegant. Other notable features include a top-opening windscreen; rear Auster screen; Lucas 'King of the Road' headlights; scuttle-mounted sidelights; and Toby diver's lamps at the rear – all recently re-plated in nickel.

West Hoathly Garage repainted & restored the 'Ghost in 2011 to a very high standard while the interior was beautifully re-trimmed at the same time, featuring deep-buttoned light grey leather upholstery; a wooden dashboard; and blue carpets. Front and rear tonneau covers are present also. Sensible upgrades include servo assisted brakes; Smiths 0-80mph speedometer; Smiths 8-day trip clock; electric fuel pumps; and a fuel gauge concealed within the glove compartment.

Part of a private collection, exceptionally well maintained and 'on the button', this most elegant Rolls-Royce is ideal for 20 Ghost Tours and many other prestigious historic motoring events. It starts instantly & runs in Silence; A testimony tot he late Jim Denes excellence whilst the proprietor of West Hoathly garage.

Simply put: they do not come much more elegant, sporting & rakish then this one. Driving it is simply a pleasure.
