1993 Model Year

The Rolls-Royce Corniche IV represents the absolute pinnacle of the Corniche lineage. Having first been launched as the Silver Shadow Drophead in 1967, the car had gone through many iterations in the subsequent years, being renamed as the Corniche in 1971, the introduction of the Corniche 1A in 1976 with the updated dashboard and larger wheel arches to be seen on later cars, the Corniche II in 1986, the III in 1989 and finally the IV in 1992. The changes made for the IV were by far the most considerable for any Corniche since the 1A.

New for the Corniche IV was a 4-speed transmission, ABS and most importantly of all an entirely new convertible roof, now with a glass rear window, lower profile, 1 centimetre lower side windows and an 8 centimetre longer rear quarter window. The glass rear window was also significantly smaller than the plastic window it replaced. These factors helped give the car a significantly sleeker look when the roof was up whilst the 4-speed and ABS improved the car's performance and general driving ability, simply making them a better car than the Corniches of before.

This stunning Masons Black with Tan leather piped black is a stunning, LHD ex-California car that was supplied new to the legendary Rolls-Royce of Beverly Hills showroom in Los Angeles. The car comes with its original service book and was serviced regularly by its supplying dealer and service records are on file from when the car was new up until 2014 when the car left the US and came to England. Since its arrival here, the car has had only two further owners, making it a genuine three owner car. It has been fastidiously maintained and serviced within an inch of its life with particular care during the 11 year tenureship of its last, celebrity owner, a world-famous musician and well respected collector, the car has very clearly been loved and this shows today. It is a truly exceptional Corniche IV presented in its timeless, original colour combination, further complimented by the recent addition of a beautifully trimmed Mohair hood, a rare change over the normal Everflex hoods found on Corniche IVs. It is a great car and is ready to be used and enjoyed by its next lucky custodian. The Corniche IV is an incredibly special car in an already important lineage and they don't come much better than this.
