A 1911 Rolls-Royce 40\/50hp Silver Ghost Semi-Open Drive Limousine will be one of the main highlights at the\u00a0Bonhams Golden Age of Motoring Sale<\/a> at New Bond Street\u00a0on October 30th.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

1911 Rolls-Royce 40\/50hp Silver Ghost Tulip-Backed semi open drive Pullman Limousine<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Estimate: \u00a3 1,000,000 – 1,300,000<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The Silver Ghost<\/a>\u00a0was considered to be\u00a0the embodiment of Edwardian engineering and coachbuilding excellence. Nicknamed The Silver Ghost because of the silver paintwork of the display car at the 1906 Motor Show, the vehicle was the flagship of Rolls-Royce<\/a> and was regarded as the \u2018best car in the world.\u2019 It set a new world record in the 15,000-mile Scottish Reliability Run.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
\r\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The Silver Ghost is powered by a 7-liter engine mated to a three-speed gearbox that was not only reliable but was also unrivalled in its performance. It offered a smooth and civilized driving experience as the engine was \u2018ghostly\u2019 quiet compared to its rivals.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The superiority of its engineering was matched perfectly by the elegant style that could be seen in the example that is on offer. Joseph A Lawton & Co of Liverpool fashioned its coachwork\u00a0with a tulip-backed limousine body to the specification of the first owner, Mrs. Benger of Benger\u2019s Foods company, a neighbor of Henry Royce<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

It is beautifully finished in deep red with black wings and exquisite coach lines. All the fittings of the Silver Ghost are made of brass, even the stunning French opera lamps.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The\u00a0chauffer\u2019s compartment, which is separate, is traditionally trimmed using deep-button black leather upholstery. The driver\u2019s instruments include a dashboard-mounted fuel pressure gauge, a speedometer, a speaking tube to communicate with passengers, and an electric klaxon.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The rear compartment is grandly fitted out with silk blinds and curtains, along with\u00a0beveled\u00a0glass rear windows, and a\u00a0magnificent burr walnut door paneling and headlining. Other luxury features include a courtesy lamp, full-width vanity tray with scent bottles and a flower vase, cocktail cabinet, and a rear clock. There is also a luggage rack for the long-distance motor tour.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

This glorious machine has been featured in several Rolls-Royce books and has been in the possession of the most discerning of enthusiasts and collectors.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

\r\n

\u201cThis Rolls-Royce is an outstanding example of its type, truly the cr\u00e8me de la cr\u00e8me, and will be a very special highlight of the sale.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\r\nBonhams Motor Cars UK, Head of Department Tim Schofield.\u00a0<\/cite><\/blockquote>\r\n\r\n\r\n

\r\n\r\n\r\n

Showcasing the finest and rarest veteran, vintage, and post-vintage vehicles, The Golden Age of Motoring Sale also features:\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

\u00a0<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

1924 Vauxhall 30-98 OE-Velox Tourer\u00a0<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Estimate: \u00a3 250,000 – 300,000<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

It\u00a0is considered to be\u00a0the finest British sporting Vintage motor car and a\u00a0car that kept their rival, Bentley, on its toes.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The first model immediately set a\u00a0new record\u00a0at the\u00a0Shelsley\u00a0Walsh Hill Climb<\/a>. The later OE versions, with a 110hp, 4.2-liter engines were also successful at the\u00a0Brooklands\u00a0motor circuit<\/a>. This original bodied example comes with full matching numbers and has been in possession of the current owner since 1968.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

1902\u00a0Arrol-Johnston 10\/12hp Dogcart\u00a0<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Estimate: \u00a3 80,000 – 120,000<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

A pioneer in British motor cars, the\u00a0Arrol-Johnston has a very distinct dogcart body, with the driver\u2019s seat placed in the second row.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

\"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a> \"\"<\/a><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Manufactured by the Mo-Car Syndicate Ltd, Glasgow, Arrol-Johnston conceived its name from financial backer Sir William Arrol (builder of the Forth Railway Bridge) and its designer George Johnston, a locomotive engineer.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

This example was found neglected in a quarry in the 1960s\u00a0and since then, has had two restorations. The current owners have had the unit since 1991, and it has successfully completed\u00a0a number of\u00a0London to Brighton Veteran Car Runs<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n
