1977-1980 Bentley T2 Long Wheelbase
September 25th, 2009 / No Comments » / by admin
The outward appearance of a Bentley T2 is slightly more dynamic because the bonnet design is a few centimetres lower and the radiator shell shape with its rounded edges is smoother. In addition, the badging on wheel covers, boot lid and gauges featured Bentley motifs rather than Rolls-Royce ones. Standard features included electrically operated windows and electrically adjustable front seats.
The upgraded T2 featured rack and pinion steering, improved air conditioning, rubber bumpers, a new fascia and a front air dam, similarly to the Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow II.
1966-1971 Bentley T1 Two Door Saloon

The most sought-after of all post-war Bentley two-door : only seventeen LHD examples (and 98 in total) of this ultra-classy and discreet automobile have ever been built on the 1965 Silver Shadow chassis. This generation was characterised by a monocoque chassis, allowing more interior space, a better access to all seats, and a lighter, more rigid structure. Combined with the powerful all-alloy V8 engine (6,3 lire), and with the automatically adjusted all-independent new suspension, it enables easy cruising at all speed, and a highly comfortable driving combined with a lively and delightful road behaviour.

1965-1977 Bentley T1 Saloon
April 22nd, 2009 / No Comments » / by admin
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.
