Chris Wilson Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 Wondering what early Continental R's are like for rot and reliability? Thanks. This shaped one, circa 1995 model year: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havard Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 Surely they are too expensive to rot, arent they?? H. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Wilson Posted June 6, 2008 Author Share Posted June 6, 2008 All Rolls Royce and Bentleys I have come across are rot boxes, was really wondering if these were any better or worse than the norm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ewen Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 Good looking car the R. '95 /'96 are still around the £40 - £50k mark though by the looks of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted June 6, 2008 Author Share Posted June 6, 2008 I doubt they will be soon, the fuel and economic crises will hit stuff like that like a jackhammer. The early ones are sub 30K now. Dare I say that I like the look of them, and Jane is saying the place is littered with "scrappers"? Slight exaggeration, but I know what she means If I found I could steal a nice one for sensible money I might have a punt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedM Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 I think that looks ugly compared to the recent models. Speaking of which we have three in our tiny village alone and there are two more in the next village. So much for imminent recession and shocking tax and fuel increases!
