Comments from the dealer
The 1974 Rolls-Royce Corniche Coupe is one of the finest expressions of British luxury motoring from the era. Handcrafted by Mulliner Park Ward, the elegant two-door hardtop combined timeless styling, exceptional craftsmanship, and effortless performance. The name "Corniche" is derived from the French word for a scenic coastal road running along the face of a cliff, reflecting the car's grand touring character
Finished in elegant Coffee Bean Brown with a contrasting Black roof, this Corniche beautifully presented. The Chestnut Connolly leather interior is in excellent condition for its age, displaying a desirable patina that reflects the car's authenticity. The door trims, carpets, and interior appointments have been exceptionally well preserved, while the walnut veneers remain in outstanding condition throughout the cabin.
The vehicle retains excellent functionality, with the clock, remote fuel filler release, electric aerial, and power windows all operating correctly. The chrome brightwork, stainless steel trim, and headlamp surrounds present well, while the original wheels and hubcaps are complemented by classic whitewall tyres.
On the road, this Corniche delivers the smooth, effortless driving experience synonymous with the Rolls-Royce marque. The automatic transmission shifts seamlessly, the steering is precise, and the braking performance is reassuring. The engine bay presents as an honest and original example that has been enjoyed and maintained throughout its life.
Under the bonnet sits Rolls-Royce's legendary 6.75-litre OHV V8 engine, paired with a smooth 3-speed automatic transmission. Equipped with twin SU carburettors featuring automatic mixture enrichment and automatic choke, the Corniche delivers the effortless power and refinement that made Rolls-Royce the benchmark for luxury motoring.
Advanced engineering was a hallmark of the Corniche. It featured four-wheel independent suspension with coil springs, complemented by a sophisticated hydraulic self-levelling system to ensure a remarkably smooth ride. Standard equipment included four-wheel ventilated disc brakes, electronic ignition, a dual exhaust system with stainless-steel silencers, and a carefully engineered fuel tank location designed to enhance safety.
The cabin showcases the traditional craftsmanship for which Rolls-Royce is renowned. Rich Circassian Walnut veneers were hand-finished and polished to a deep lustre, while the seats were upholstered in premium Connolly leather hides. Luxurious Wilton wool carpets extend throughout the cabin and boot, creating an atmosphere of true luxury. Features such as power windows, power steering, power-adjustable seats, and the exceptional refinement expected of a Rolls-Royce made the Corniche one of the most desirable luxury coupes of its time.
A rare opportunity to own an iconic 1974 Rolls-Royce Corniche Coupe, offering timeless styling, hand-built craftsmanship, and unmatched prestige. Exceptional value at only $49,990.
