Under the bonnet
The adoption of an all aluminum 6.23 literV8 engine replacing the straight six of the Cloud I/S1 was the most remarkable innovation when Rolls Royce publicized the advent of their new model Rolls Royce Silver Cloud II in 1959. It is well worth noting that this engine - developed during the 1950s - is still performing under the bonnet of Rolls Royce's modern models of the 90s though having been subject to the company's established policy of seeking improvements in design and manufacture. In the U.S.A. the Silver Cloud II was tremendously successful and the slogan coined by David Ogilvy's advertising agency "At 60 mph the loudest noise in this new Rolls Royce comes from the electric clock" became a classic of its own. As regards to coachwork, there were but negligible changes to the familiar standard steel bodywork when compared to that of the Silver Cloud I.
