Sorry for the poor photo quality.

The base car is obvious, so no points there, but to gain a point, who made this, and what was its full name?

Sources indicate it is a 1980 Rolls-Royce Silver Spur modified by Classic Coachworks, but none of that should be worth a lock.

I will lock it for you for one reply as it is from the early 1980s, and it was a Silver Spur modified by Classic Coachworks, so just its 'official' name needed.

I found your picture on a popular pictorial website but it gave no information about the car, other than it was a "factory photo"!  It didn't say which factory...

Is its name related to its body style (like Estate or Shooting Brake) ?
