Just seen this waft pass my house. Owned by one of the local Gentry. Anyone know what it is?

I'm guessing it's something like a Silver Ghost :dont know:

 
Circa 1920's Silver Ghost :?:
 
Can't quite make out the reg no from the video, but if you can, google it... it's likely to be on the internet somewhere.

In the 20s you bought the chassis from Rolls then the owner usually had coach built bodywork done which makes them unique. Frequently subsequent owners would have them rebodied.

That one was evidently for the owner to be driven around in, rather than drive themselves.
 
It's a bit fuzzy on my screen but I think it's a late model Ford Fiesta - possibly in Flame Red. Or am I focusing on the wrong bit....???

Regarding the big blue thing that spoiled the view of the Fiesta, it certainly looks like a Silver Ghost from the 1920's (probably upwards of £150k for those who want to be vulgar).

Oh and I love your neighbour's "no expense spared" approach to selling his house.... (is he moving due to the rowdy guy next door to him..?) :thumb:

I'll get my coat......

He died of an aggressive cancer a few months ago and his daughter has put it up for sale.
 
Looks like a Pop Larkin style Rolls Royce

I think they are known as a 20/25

Winny
