Sir Bobby Robson’s classic Rolls Royce Silver Seraph is back on the market

Rolls Royce owned by Bobby Robson is for sale in County Durham

A stunning Rolls Royce Silver Seraph whose last previous owner was Sir Bobby Robson, is back on the market after his widow took the decision to sell the pristine vehicle.

The classic Rolls Royce is currently on display at a car showroom in Peterlee, county Durham, at the same dealership where Sir Bobby purchased it from. Car dealer Paul Cummings sourced the car for the former England and Newcastle United boss two and a half years ago after Sir Bobby admitted that he had always wanted to own a Rolls Royce.

The football legend’s wife, Lady Elsie, is selling the car after Sir Bobby passed away last July aged 76. The Rolls Royce had been described as his pride and joy.

Paul Cummings, who is selling the vehicle on behalf of Lady Elsie, was a personal friend of Sir Bobby’s and even attended his memorial service last year. The Rolls Royce can be seen at the car show room on Peterlee industrial estate.

The Rolls Royce Silver Seraph is a 1998 model and has just 26,247 miles on the clock. Its original selling price was £160,000 however its current price has not been made public, but can be disclosed upon application. Sir Bobby Robson’s personalised number plates will not be included in the sale.
