Rolls-Royce 20 hp H.J. Mulliner Weyman Saloon. 1927
General description :
1927 Rolls Royce 20hp H.J. Mulliner Weyman Saloon.
Chassis number: GHJ6
Registration number: NF4599
Ordered by Joseph Cockshoot & Sons of Manchester & bodied by H.J. Mulliner to the Weyman construction patent as evidenced by the wayman Plaque located next to the Mulliner Sill plate. This car has resided for decades in central wales & is one of those rare unknown orignal survivors having recently emerged from its long term garage.
This is a rare untouched car with the only non original items being the carpets & the headlining which have been well redone. Overall it has a delightfully oily rag feel about it, but without doubt is in better then oily rag condition. The exterior is faded green paintwork with black wings. To the interior is black leather matched to green carpets. All the wood work is of burr walnut & has its original finish as when it left Mulliners Bedford Park Works in Chiswick.
We are in the process of recommissioning the car & giving it a full service. That being said we started & drove the car 8 miles after collecting it & can report a sweet running engine with good power & a pleasant driving experience overall. INdeed the further we drove it the better it became. We will put 50 or so more miles on the car once we have changed its fluids, oiled its Enots fittings & adjusted the valve clearances back to factory spec.
The car is fitted with a large sunroof allowing for breezy summer motoring. The starting handle & also the wheel spanner are located in the quite capacious boot which has also had new green carpets matching the other carpets.
The body is of a particulatly dainty & pretty design eliciting smiles from all who see it. The spare is rear mounted on the boot which opens by releasing two coach locks with the square T handled tool.

About Rolls-Royce
Well, ladies and gentlemen, today we're diving into the illustrious history of a brand that has always embodied the very essence of British luxury and craftsmanship - Rolls-Royce.Our story begins at the turn of the 20th century when two visionaries, Charles Rolls and Henry Royce, decided to join forces. In 1904, the very first Rolls-Royce was born, the Rolls-Royce 10 hp. It was a modest start for a company that would go on to redefine automotive excellence.
But it wasn't until 1907 that Rolls-Royce truly made its mark with the introduction of the Silver Ghost. It was hailed as the "Best Car in the World" and set the gold standard for luxury motoring. With its whisper-quiet engine and exquisite craftsmanship, it was a statement of opulence and refinement.
The 1920s brought us the Rolls-Royce Phantom I, an icon of its time. It was the first Rolls-Royce to feature a 6-cylinder engine and set the stage for the legendary Phantom line. This was the era when the Maharajas of India commissioned custom-bodied Rolls-Royces that were nothing short of automotive palaces.
Fast forward to the post-war years, and we have the Silver Cloud, a symbol of post-war British optimism. The Silver Cloud was elegance personified, with its flowing lines and handcrafted interiors. It was the choice of royalty, celebrities, and captains of industry.
But if we're talking about the epitome of Rolls-Royce luxury, it's the Rolls-Royce Phantom VI, which graced us with its presence from 1968 to 1991. This was a car that made the statement that "if you have to ask the price, you can't afford it." Customization was the name of the game, and the Phantom VI was a canvas for the world's wealthiest to express their unique tastes.
Now, it's impossible to discuss Rolls-Royce without mentioning the Rolls-Royce Corniche. Produced from 1971 to 1995, it was a convertible and coupe version of the Silver Shadow. The Corniche was the quintessential grand tourer, a car for those who wished to traverse continents in absolute luxury.
But, alas, even the mightiest must face their decline, and Rolls-Royce was no exception. The company went through financial turmoil in the 1970s and 80s, leading to the takeover by Vickers plc. Then came the controversial BMW and Volkswagen ownership period, which divided enthusiasts.
Rolls-Royce regained its footing under BMW ownership, and the new millennium brought us the Rolls-Royce Phantom VII, a return to the company's roots of uncompromising luxury. The Phantom VII was a testament to British engineering and craftsmanship.
And that, ladies and gentlemen, brings us to today. Rolls-Royce continues to produce some of the most opulent, bespoke vehicles on the planet, a symbol of British imperiousness that has not waned with time. The spirit of Sir Henry Royce and Charles Rolls lives on in every car that bears the Spirit of Ecstasy, a testament to the enduring legacy of British automotive excellence.
