Overview
Rolls-Royce sent a Mulliner Park Ward two-door saloon to Pininfarina in 1969. Sergio Pininfarina assigned the work to chief stylist Paolo Martin, whose brief called for an owner-driver car that remained recognisably a Rolls-Royce.
The Delta prototype ran in July 1972. Production began after the March 1975 launch, first at Mulliner Park Ward in London and from 1978 at Crewe. The 6.75-litre V8, independent suspension and hydraulic height control came from the established SY mechanical family.
Rolls-Royce records 529 sales over 12 years, nearly three quarters in the United States. Auction catalogues sometimes quote 530 or 531, illustrating the difference between sales, chassis and model-year counts; the factory figure is used here.
