There is no Buy it Now or part-exchange. Here is a brief excerpt taken from the auction description;This fine-looking Silver Cloud II left Crewe in 1961 and was first registered in July of that year. Records show that the car left the factory in red paintwork. We can only assume that was a deep burgundy shade rather than a very un-Cloud-esque bright red. It subsequently transitioned through a black and silver, two-tone livery before being first painted in its current white in 1993, after the third owner bought the car in 1992.Considering the cars 62-year history, it has had a mere five owners from new. The current owner has completed a few long runs of late, giving him peace of mind that the car is comfortable and reliable on a mid-range [Website URL removed] fair to say the vendor had ambitions for this car that he was unable to realise, as the vendor now spends the majority of his time outside the UK. The vendors son confirms that although the car presents nicely, and drives well, it still has scope for a new owner to further improve and add value.According to the vendors son, it has previously been used for wedding transport by a well-established Chauffeur company. It was a favourite on their fleet having got many blushing brides to the church on time. Given the importance of reliability in this crucial role, the wedding company reportedly lavished £22,000 on the car in 2019 to bring it back to the required, high standard. By a process of elimination, we can deduce that the first two owners racked up 31 years of ownership between them. Such extended periods of ownership can only bode very well for prospective future owners of this car.In terms of mileage, the earlier MoT history suggests that this car passed 99,999 miles in about 2012. Given the current odometer reading of 10,697 miles, this implies the car has been lightly used in the last ten years to sit at 110,696 miles currently. This equates to less than 2,000 miles per year, on average. Our car also caries the suitable 1 JTB (Just the Bride) number plate. How cool is that!?This lot is available for viewing/inspection.
