25/30 1936- 1938.
The engine was again bored out, this time to 3½ inches giving a capacity of 4,257 cc. Several changes were made from previous models. The familiar Rolls-Royce carburettor was dropped in favour of a Stromberg and twin S.U. petrol pumps replaced the Autovac. Marles steering was adopted and a Borg and Beck clutch was bought in as for the last of the 20/25's. The magneto of earlier cars was also discontinued and twin electric coils were fitted, one acting as a standby. The longstanding Rolls-Royce braking system with servo assistance driven from the gearbox was still more than adequate for the increase in performance. DWS screw jacks, one at the front and one each side at the rear, were permanently fitted.

1,201 25/30's were made.

edit

the amount she wants is just what her dead husband paid for it some 30 years ago when bought it - culd prolly buy it for some 25.000 if fast - but i dont even know if its worth that much at all

I would guess that it's worth a bundle. Have it appraised by an appraiser for a solid price.

Soren...in great shape the car should fetch around 70-80,000 euros...there not many of these cars still around...since this car has been let out for special occasions it is my guess that it is reasonable shape...without looking at the engine and noting the running condition...it is hard to evaluate...however...my guess is that 25,000 US is a steal...in fair condition the car shouls still be valued easily 50,000 euros...this all based on my own research online...and not on anything specific...

Try doing your own research...I found a 1936 that looked similar that was being asked $79,000 euros for...
