The British-made hand-built model was available in three body style, including a 2-door saloon, 2-door Convertible and a 4-door sedan, the latter like the one spotted on the Nigerian road.

To date, a combined model run of 30,057 units of Silver Shadow (1965 to 1976) and the Silver Shadow II (1977 to 1980) is the largest production volume of any Rolls-Royce model.

In addition, a Bentley-badged version of the Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow called the T-series was produced from 1965 through 1980 in 2,336 examples.

The now iconic Rolls-Royce model was originally intended to be called Rolls-Royce Silver Mist, but was replaced with Silver Shadow at the last minute due to Mist meaning “manure” or “crap” in German.
