BethesdaHi Can we update the customer dealer page with this The Real Car Company Ltd The Real Car Company was established in 1987 by Ray Arnold & Ian Johnstone to specialise in the sale of early Rolls-Royce and Bentley. It was a hobby that 'Got out of hand'. Our interest in cars of the type that we now sell goes back to our childhoods, and ownership back to the 1970s. Gradually more cars started passing through our hands, and by 1986 we had decided to make a full-time occupation of buying and selling the cars that we love. We started with a single car (all we could afford) which we sold quickly, and before we knew it we had 4 or 5 on our hands! This was alongside another business (exhaust systems) that we were involved in at the time. In the spring of 1988 we gave up the other business, rented part of the premises that we still operate from now, and went full time. We started well in the boom years of the late eighties, which set us up well enough for us to ride the storm of recession in the years that followed. As the years went on the number of cars going through our hands increased gradually, we built up a workforce, and we now carry a stock of around 30 to 40 vehicles with nine of us here. Over the years we have gratefully received awards from the motoring press. We are always interested in acquiring cars of the type that we sell so if you know of a Rolls-Royce or Bentley for sale, anywhere in the World, particularly an early model, please let us know
1 Previous Owner, A stylish two door tourer, wellproportioned, lightweight & reminiscent of a Vanden Plas design of the day. The cutaway doors, rearmounted spare wheel, quarter bumpers, correct lamps, horns, etc, all add to its handsome looks. A few years ago a new cylinder head and an oil filter conversion were fitted. We feel it likely that the engine was overhauled at the same time, although we have no way of confirming this so cannot claim it to be so. he car was fully rewired in 2016 and a few years ago the car was stripped to bare aluminium, partially dismantled bodywise, wings removed, etc and treated to a fabulously high quality repaint, not something we say that lightly. The standard of the paintwork is second to none, which can hopefully be seen in some of the photos, contributing of course to the smart overall appearance of the car, which extends to the very correct and clean engine bay, which presents very well. In good order mechanically too, with a nice engine, gearbox, etc, light, agile and driving well. The car represents very good value when compared either to an original bodied example of similar style in equivalent condition, or other rebodies currently available. Offered serviced, prepared and MoT tested.
