Icon Derelict Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud. The only one in the whole WORLD!

If you enjoy the video then please hit that like button!
Ever wondered what Santa would drive if he were to ditch his sleigh for four wheels? Tiff reckons he has the perfect answer: a 1959 Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud. But this is a Silver Cloud with a difference! It's been restored as a "Derelict" by Jonathan Ward's ICON company in California, and is now powered by a 7 litre Chevrolet V8 engine.
Tiff and Paul embark on a mission to test its suitability for the world's most prolific-present-giver, and have a sack full of fun along the way. Do you have any suggestions for an alternative ride for Father Christmas? Let us know what you think he would drive in the comments below!
The ultimate petrol head Christmas special with Tiff Needell!

Merry Christmas to you all! Thank you so much for watching our videos and supporting our channel.

[@esametsala3054]

Thank You for giving us the opportunity to look these videos of Yours! I’ve always said, that it doesn’t matter what kind of vehicles You bring us to our homes, the PERSONALITY OF YOURS makes it fun and even educating to watch. So, all the best, take care and be healthy. Merry Christmas from Finland 🇫🇮 🧚

[@autocomman]

Hah, funny to see this now in the UK. I was one of the guys who built this one when I was at Icon. My all time fav from my time there. I put a couple hundred test miles on it. Nothing but giggles from the back seat and people on the road, no matter who it was...giggles! Love to see it being used and driven properly

[@lovecarsTV]

That's awesome!

[@thogd7414]

Could build another one???

[@BaritoneOneFive]

Must've been a great experience to work at ICON. All of his cars look amazing! Wish I could afford to let Jonathan have his way with my car!

I just love TIFF... he's so much fun..

[@lovecarsTV]

He's a legend 👌😁

[@artmechanic]

I owned the car since the mid 1980's before selling it to Jonathan Ward. It's amazing to see that it's back in the UK. We imported it from London to Texas. It was a great car even in it's original form. The straight six engine may not have been a racer, but it was smooth and had lots of torque. I'm so happy to see this car live on.

[@JamesAllmond]

I've known about this car for a while. Though a guy in Australia had it built, but if Tiff ended up with it, that is even better.

[@Your.Uncle.AngMoh]

Jay Leno did a show on it three years ago.

[@lovecarsTV]

Ha, Tiff definitely is a fan 😎

[@Neojhun]

LOL an Icon Derelict for England. Jonathan Ward is a mad genius.

[@lovecarsTV]

😎👌

[@petergibbs]

When I was four and a half & we were about to come back from Australia. We were staying at my uncles who had a Silver Cloud. One day he came in and told the maid he had just bought another one. Then said it's on the back seat and would she go and get it for him. That day I became the proud owner of my own Silver Cloud,. made in Japan, Cream roof, gunmetal body, made of tin and all of eleven & half inches long (or just over 90cm if I have got it right),. I still have it today, a little rusty and worse for wear, but would not part with her for all the tea in china. Thant's for the memories, Tiff. I still have fleeting memories of riding in the back of his Silver Cloud.

[@lovecarsTV]

Wow that's awesome 😁👌

[@shankarbalan3813]

cool car indeed but only affordable when the owner is a perfect mechanic and is able to repair everything from cylinder head gasket, piston rings, cardan shaft, wheel suspension. Otherwise presently repairs on this car cost more than the car is worth.

It certainly is a cool car 😁👌

IMO, this was the best body shape of any Rolls-Royce ever. Maybe they should have stuck to it for for their later cars and just updated the engine, electronics etc.

[@jimmyfleetwood1118]

RIP once grand car. Former symbol of achievement, and now a circus side-show freak.

[@crashbox7130]

It's also being illegally used on the road. It might be a 1958 car but being substantially altered from factory spec it must have an MOT every year. It does not, which suggests the DVLA are unware of the alterations. That would also affect the insurance because the owner might well have declared the modifications for insurance purposes but the car in effect has no MOT when it should. Very nice car though.

[@jimmyfleetwood1118]

@@crashbox7130 Good points for the UK. Where it was "built" (California) , considerations such as MOT, and INS concerns, would not apply.
