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

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.
