The Rolls-Royce Silver Wraith, produced from 1946 to 1958, was the first model manufactured after the war. Built in Crewe, UK, it was sold only as a bare chassis. Customers then chose an independent coachbuilder such as Park Ward, H.J. Mulliner or Hooper to design the bodywork. This model therefore gave rise to a wide variety of unique, often very luxurious versions. The Silver Wraith was powered by a 4.3-litre inline 6-cylinder engine, which was increased to 4.9 litres in 1951. Equipped with a 4-speed manual gearbox, an automatic transmission was available as an option from 1952. A luxurious and prestigious car, its hydraulic suspension offered exceptional comfort for the time.<br />
<br />
Rolling off the assembly line in Crewe on 16 October 1947, our chassis was sent to James Young Ltd in London to be fitted with its bodywork. Once completed, it was delivered on 15 September 1948 to the importer André Pissart on Boulevard de Waterloo in Brussels. At the time, it had black bodywork with a beige interior.  True to its original design, our model is in very good condition. Restored in the past, its black bodywork is enhanced by an elegant red trim that runs along the body and is also found on the hubcaps. Like the bodywork, the chrome is sparkling. The interior is also in good condition, with comfortable velvet upholstery and well-preserved woodwork. There is also a very pleasant sunroof. A true post-war icon, the Silver Wraith is the ultimate symbol of British refinement.</p>

<p>Imber is an abandoned village in Wiltshire, England, now entirely within the British Army’s Salisbury Plain Training Area. It was a small agricultural community recorded in the Domesday Book and inhabited for centuries before the military gradually bought up surrounding land in the early 20th century.<br />
<br />
<br />
In 1943, during World War II, the British government ordered the entire population—then about 150 people—to leave with just weeks’ notice so American troops could train for the invasion of Europe. After the war ended, the villagers were not allowed to return, and the Ministry of Defence retained control of the area. <br />
<br />
Today, Imber remains uninhabited and is primarily used for military training, including urban warfare exercises. Public access is usually restricted to a few open days each year, when visitors can explore its deserted streets and historic buildings such as the medieval St Giles Church (a Grade I-listed building), old houses, a pub, a manor, and schoolhouse. <br />
<br />
Its eerie state and history make it a notable example of a “ghost village”—a place with deep historical roots that was abandoned for military purposes and retains visible remnants of its past.</p>
