Silver Shadow Dual Cab 4x4 ute

A couple of years ago this car showed up.

It is a 1972 Silver Shadow Dual Cab 4x4 ute based on a 1976 Dodge chassis.



The dual cab ute tray does make it more practical than the Aussie 4x4 SUV Silver Shadow posted earlier.



And guess what... it has recently been spotted in the wild!

JP Montoro sent in these photos.



It seems to be used quite appropriately.



Thanks for the link to the photos JP Montoro.

Hot Rod MPW FHC

"Divorce forces sale!" blares the ad. Who would have thought.



Yes it is. It is a Hot Rod Rolls Royce Mulliner Park Ward Fixed Head Coupe, or 2 door salon as the factory called it.



Not sure what the factory would call this car now.



The advertiser concludes "It is a one-car parade, lots of looks, whistles, thumbs up and smiles!". How very discrete and subtle of course.



"A true head turner!" Too true.



"You can park this car next to any new phantom, maybach, ferrari, etc. and you will get all the attention... very unique ride."





I do agree that you will get all the attention.





Attention does come however in degrees of satisfaction.



"I love this car and I know the next proud owner will too."



Which is absolutely true, and the reason why I really really do like this car. Yes it is so wrong. Horrid. It is a total bogan car. SummerNats ready the whole works.



It has massive amounts of passion and true care. Good luck with the sale mate!



And I do love the reflection in this above photograph, showing the owner in fashion that suits the car. Simply bare chested, in shorts and we all agree that shoes are for pussys.

Paris Cleans an Arnage

It is an oldie, but a goodie.



Certainly a good model. I can watch it again.

Fifth Gear Review the Mulsanne and the Ghost

Here is an episode of the web TV version of Fifth Gear.



It is a pity that they just use stock footage. Can't wait till Clarkson gets behind the wheel of the Mulsanne. Or will it be May?

Mulliner Park Ward in Hong Kong

Paul was doing a bit of shopping at the Pacific Place Shopping Mall in Hong Kong on the weekend.

Now this car was parked below.

Yep, it is a very late say 1996 to 1998 factory stretched Rolls Royce Silver Spur LWB Mulliner Park Ward. Number plate 599. Nice.



The last time this exact model was seen in Hong Kong, it was burning up. Literally. That was number plate 4. Which sounds like death doesn't it?

Thank you to Paul for sending in the photo.
