The SCIII has more beef, more power, but it is much more complicated to
maintain. The V8 can't be maintained by a non-mechanic owner, so it costs
more to keep on the road. Like all standard steel saloons, it often has
rusted sills and wings concealed behind a shiny respray, so if you have a
comfortable bank account, go for an aluminium (coachbuilt) example. From a
mechanical point of view, Cal West - who is the world's expert on modern
(1955-1980) RR cars reckons that the best buy is a late (1959) SCI.
