Barge Envy

I so want this. Price has dropped one sixth to $25K or £16200 roughly.

Triple blue would be better (blue coachwork, blue Everflex roof, blue interior) but this shown, is still rare as heck.

Unforchanitly, by the time work pays a fat wad (third quarter) there will be more pressing issues at the table than a plush toy.

Just get it mate. Is it just to take the women out to dinner?

Do a few weddings for cash!

Very nice, a barge indeed!

Ive been in a good few of those and driven one, which was a bit of a ropey one but it was the slightly longer Silver Spur version.

Not much call for them at weddings now it seems, they either need to be repainted white and rented cheaper than theyused to be or they dont seem to be popular. Most people seem to want modern flash cars or even limos now :shock: I know a good few people who have sold their Rolls as the wedding business was not paying for its upkeep.

That one must be a very good car, you can pick them up quite a bit cheaper here.

It's triple green (green upper, green lower, green interior), two owners, definitely above average. A roughie here is about 40% that price. Bear in mind that Crewe stuff here only suffers cavity corrosion - underbodies remain perfect.

Some cynical hiring might well be possible - especially as whenever I finally acquire one it will be stabled in a small country town where there aren't any others...

Lexi, I have the 605 for that purpose (wining and dining). Chicks love the front bumper "antennae".
