Most likely a Rolls-Royce Silver Wraith (1949). |

Yes, it is a Silver Wraith with Park Ward body on a long-wheel-base-chassis - but not from 1949. |

I don't think it is LWLE10 (LVLE10 is not a RR number), this one has sealed-beam headlamps and the photo shot from the side shows a wing line typical of a design 7276, not at all like a 7171. Moreover LWLE10 was in Kentucky when the film was shot. There are 99.9% chances that this is LALW22- which also featured in other films like "Bean" in 1997. Its then-owner was in the hire trade and many of his cars were used in films. |

Batman Returns was filmed in Los Angeles, so a car from Kentucky seems more likely than one from the UK. (Tim Burton's first Batman film, though, was made in Britain.) EDIT: Forget that. I see that the Bean car is/was in California. /vehicle_75143-Rolls-Royce-Silver-Wraith.html -- Last edit: 2010-02-08 11:13:06 |

This is a 1950 H.J. Mulliner Sedanca DeVille, Serial #LWHD49. I purchased this car in 1995 from a wedding service just outside Chicago. He purchased it in 1993 from an owner in Los Angeles who had leased it for three months to the production company. The paperwork of the lease was included with the car. If I recall correctly the 3 month lease was $10,000. I sold the Rolls, probably around 2004, to an executive of Walmart in AR. I gave him this paperwork but unfortunately did not keep a copy after it was sold. The car is actually two-tone black and silver. The production company painted over the silver portion using water soluble paint for the shooting. When it was not being used in the shooting, it was used to shuttle the stars around. -- Last edit: 2012-12-03 07:54:58 |
