Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud II
Car Model Details:
This is a 4-door full-size luxury car sedan type, produced from 1959 to 1962. The real revelation of the new engine was not its power but how quiet it was – V8s are generally quite raucous by nature, but when enveloped in the Cloud’s expansive body, occupants could still hear the clock ticking at 60mph, a characteristic the company enthusiastically trumped about what it still called ‘The best car in the world’.
