885s

The 885s, also known as the 885, are a series of compact executive cars produced by the British manufacturer Rolls-Royce from 1965 to 1971. The name "885" refers to the car's engine size, an 8.2-liter V8, which was a significant upgrade from the previous 8-liter engines. The 885s were designed to compete with other luxury cars of the time, such as the Jaguar E-Type and the Mercedes-Benz 600.

The first generation of the 885, introduced in 1965, featured a sleek, modern design with a long hood and a short rear deck. It was available in both coupe and convertible body styles. The second generation, introduced in 1968, featured a more angular design with a longer wheelbase and a more powerful engine. Both generations were praised for their comfort, luxury, and performance.

The 885s were produced in limited numbers, with only about 1,000 cars built in total. This, combined with their high price tag, made them a rare and sought-after collectible. Today, the 885s are highly valued by collectors and enthusiasts, with some examples fetching high prices at auctions. Despite their rarity, the 885s remain a symbol of Rolls-Royce's commitment to luxury and innovation.
