This Rolls-Royce 20HP is a refined pre-war saloon, which was restored by its previous owner. Under the bonnet sits a naturally aspirated 3.1-litre OHV inline-six, producing around 20hp and driving the rear wheels via a four-speed manual transmission. This 20HP is understood to be one of only 2,940 examples produced between 1922 and 1929. It won the Rolls-Royce Owners Club of South Australia’s Southern Spirit Car of the Month award in October 2002, and was previously owned by the Lord Mayor of Melbourne. The odometer shows 8,989 miles, though this is not warranted. The Martin & King coachwork of this 20HP saloon is finished in blue, with black accents and grey coachlines, as well as elegant chrome trim elements. The cabin is trimmed in beige leather upholstery, completed by swathes of wood trim. Equipment includes blue wire-spoked wheels with Lester tyres, a push-out ventilated windscreen, a four-spoke steering wheel, an analogue clock, and a rear picnic table. Accompanying the vehicle will be extensive documentation including evidence of its Car of the Month award win, an instruction book, and various owner’s certificates, press cuttings and photographs. Please refer to the photo gallery to assess the exterior and interior condition. The most recent service was completed in 2024. This Rolls-Royce 20HP is a stylish pre-war saloon, which benefits from previous restorative maintenance. One of just 2,940 examples produced, it won the Rolls-Royce Owners Club of South Australia’s Southern Spirit Car of the Month award in October 2002, and was previously owned by the Lord Mayor of Melbourne. With a luxuriously appointed cabin, it would make an excellent addition to any assembly of pre-war classics, and a charming companion for weekend jaunts and classic car show visits.
