    Due to my age and health issues, I have to part with what is left of my car collection. I have three very long-term British cars, 1959 Rolls Royce Sliver Cloud 1, 1991 Jaguar XJS Classic Addition, and 2001 Aston Martin DB7. All are in perfect show room condition, with very low original milage. I have all history and service records, plus awards received. The Aston Martin is virtually a new car with only 8K miles, plus many additional factory accessories. I would like to sell them all as a package for what I consider a very fair price based on their condition and history $110,000. Let me know if you have specific questions.

    Love these cars. Quick math says this is indeed a very fair price, more like a really good deal.

    GLWS.

    Is the Aston automatic or manual?

    I have owned the Rolls-Royce and Jaguar for over 30 years and the Aston Martin for over 20 years.

    I understand your desire to sell these cars as a package but if you ever change your mind, I would like to discuss the Cloud 1 with you. Message me for contact details.

    I’d love to see more pictures of the Jag and the rolls.

    I also want to state that these cars are all original, never been in the rain or wet, perfect paint. chrome, body work, and interiors. The only parts replaced were tires, and batteries.
    I will only sell them as a package, and only for my asking price.

    I’m sure sad for you to sell these prized possessions that you enjoyed for decades.

    If was me, I would speak with one of the Scottsdale high end broker dealers, like Hubbard, is one example. No affiliation, btw.

    Tom Barrett who was a friend, was the one who found the Rolls-Royce for me. It had been put into storage by the original owner in 1962; he was also the European Motor dealer in Scottsdale and had moved back to Switzerland, but that's another story. I also know Creg Jackson, but I would much prefer to handle any sale by myself. Thanks for the advice though.

    Amazing collection - being a fan of British cars.

    Admire and respect you doing it yourself.

    You probably know this: maybe reach out to RR / AMOC / Jag clubs and forums. .

    I wonder if BaT would entertain a British trio one price sale. Think be their first.

    Wish you better health and good luck.
