Description

Exterior: This Rolls Royce 20/25 HP for sale is a Thrupp & Maberly Three Position Drop Head Coupe 1933. And it must be one of the most beautiful pre-war cars. With that low windscreen and coupe like convertible top. It looks sporty and fast and can still transport 4 people comfortably. And with the very clever construction of the top it always has a very nice stretch to it. The two-tone paintwork is in excellent condition and suit the car. Also, the chrome parts are in a very good condition and those big P100 headlights! I guess back in the days those where sending a signal to other drivers that somebody important where coming up behind you. Those very big wheels have been shoed with new rubber recently. And the recently fitted soft top has a very good stretch to it.

Interior: The interior in this Rolls Royce 20/25 Thrupp Maberly 1933 for sale has a wonderful patina to it. The seat pillows up front have been replaced otherwise it is still the original leather. All instruments are doing their job and the dashboard with all details looks very good. The Three Position Drop Head Coupe Rolls Royce can seat four people comfortably. But the view from the back seat is best in fully open position. When the top is down there is a convertible cover with perfect fit.
