2 ADVERTISING FEATURE 1986 Silver Sprint Rolls Royce Lynne and Leon Johnston 1 By Jocelyn nickels ALLENDALE East residents Lynne and Leon Johnston are owners of some of the most iconic and sought after vehicles. Purchasing a 1986 Silver Sprint Rolls Royce in 2005, the couple now has two eye catching vehicles in their collection, the other being a 1955 Series 1 Bentley Sedan. With the help from her brother Greg, a fellow Rolls Royce enthusiast, Ms Johnston sourced the vehicle from an auction house in Brisbane. Unlike the Bentley, the Rolls Royce was purchased in immaculate condition with no restoration work needed. 2 1. COLLECTOR’S CAR: The Rolls Royce would now be worth between $50,000 and $60,000. 2. CLUB CAR: The Allendale East couple often take the Rolls Royce to rallies as part of the Rolls Royce Owners Club. 3. IMMACULATE CONDITION: The Rolls Royce has had no restoration work since being purchased by Lynne and Leon Johnston. 4. LIKE NEW: The Rolls Royce only had 36,000 miles on the clock when purchased by the Allendale East couple. 5. POWERFUL: The 1986 Silver Sprint Rolls Royce features a V8 engine. Pictures: JOCELyN NiCkELS As members of the Veteran and Vintage Club of Mount Gambier and the Rolls Royce Owners Club, the couple wanted a reliable vehicle they could use in rallies. “We thought our other car might be a bit tired from age so we decided to purchase the Rolls Royce so we could attend longer rallies that are further away - it is just a bit more reliable,” Ms Johnston said. “The vehicle has all the ‘bells and whistles’ you come to expect from a prestige vehicle.” Featuring a V8 engine, cream leather upholstery, matching ocean blue carpets, walnut panneling and only 36,000 miles on the clock, it was just what the couple were looking for. With an estimated value of between $50,000 and $60,000 it is very popular at car rallies throughout the region. “When you take a car to a rally it is like at a dog show -the car gets judged on every little detail,” Ms Johnston said. “With the Rolls Royce it has to have the special tool box, foot rests and other different items with it otherwise the car gets marked down.” The 1955 Series 1 Bentley Sedan will be featured in a coming edition of Car Smart.
