Chassis No CSC139B is one of just forty-nine examples built in right-hand drive to Design No 2045 by Mulliner/Park Ward. It was originally finished in Ming Blue with an off white everflex hood and off-white leather interior (VM 3343) It was then displayed on the Mulliner/Park Ward stand at The Earls Court Motor Show in late 1965. Either at the show, or shortly after, it was supplied by H.A. Fox & Co Ltd to Terrence Rattigan, the British screenwriter and dramatist. He was knighted in June 1971 in the Queens honours list for his services to theatre. Mr Rattigan lived in Eaton Square in the heart of London’s Belgravia district and his car was admired by many, including his near neighbour, Peter Sellers, who in 1967 purchased the car from him. Sellers owned dozens of cars at this time and Chassis No CSC139B was understood to be one of favourites. He had the car repainted silver and was often seen in and around London using it with his wife and future Bond girl, Britt Ekland, by his side. The car passed to its third owner in 1971, Mr Benedict Colman and its fourth owner not long after, Mr Jim Slater of Slater Walker Securities, also residents of Eaton Square. Following these short but highly interesting periods of ownership in Eaton Square, Chassis No CSC139B was purchased by its fifth owner and sparingly used over the next thirty years, remaining largely in storage. The present owner acquired the car and set about bringing it back to its former glory, using noted Rolls-Royce specialists A&S Engineering to restore the car. The works included coachwork, a new hood, a new interior and full mechanical prep work. The car drives and presents beautifully, having covered only limited mileage since the restoration works were completed. It is complete with history file, copy chassis cards, complete tools (small and large), handbook and its original untransferable registration number plate of TR100, fitted when new in 1965 by its first owner Terrence Rattigan. Chassis No CSC139B is one of the most interesting and beautiful examples of this increasingly popular model we have had the pleasure of offering for sale.
