The Bentley T1 Saloon model was introduced to the UK market in 1965. Based on the Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow I body – the only exterior components that differed the two models being the front grille – the T1 featured a lightweight body shell and was fitted with a powerful 6.23-litre V8 unit. The Bentley T1 Saloon was designed by James Young and Mulliner Park Ward and initially appeared in a 4-door saloon variant. Two years later, a 2-door convertible body style was added to the T2 range. Standard features on the T1 included electric windows and adjustable front seats.
