Rolls-Royce and Bentley In the 80s and 90s
This book is dedicated exclusively to the last motorcars designed and engineered entirely at Crewe. From the design and styling of the 1981 Silver Spur to the final Continental R produced in 2003, this book covers every model and goes into detail about every imaginable option across 240 pages.
Special attention is given to rarely seen features, unusual options, and the long wheelbase and limousine variants. In addition, there is a detailed evaluation checklist of things to look at when considering one for purchase. Enthusiasts shopping for a car cannot be without this resource. This book also delves into all of the information that is known about the secretive collection of coachbuilt Rolls-Royce motorcars and Bentleys commissioned by Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah and his brother, Prince Jeffri.
The Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow & Bentley T-Series were a revolutionary step forward when launched in 1965. This book tells the full story, and gives details of models, history, and design of these classic British cars, including related coach-built cars, the Silver Wraith ll, Corniche & Camargue. Malcolm Bobbitt also uses his extensive motoring experience to provide valuable advice for buyers, owners and restorers.
This new Fourth Edition has been fully revised, and contains much new and updated information as well as several new pictures.
This book tells the story of the revival of the Bentley marque and the technical developments that shaped the company's latter-day history. To illustrate the fall and rise of Bentley, it goes right back to the origins of the 1960s T series cars through to the current Continental. The modern Bentley has become a huge success story without losing any of its exclusivity.
Covered are all significant Bentley models from 1965 onwards, including significant engine and chassis developments. Includes technical details and specification sheets as well as original material on special editions and one-off Bentley models.
Inside the Rolls-Royce & Bentley Styling Department 1971 to 2001
From a small design team working on the Silver Spirit/Mulsanne, to becoming Chief Stylist, Graham Hull peels back the curtain on an idiosyncratic institution during his time at Crewe. Throwing light on a factory motivated as much by pride as the bottom-line, all of the projects - whether production, special commission, or aborted designs - are covered, and the often unique styling process is explored. This process was a key element in the resurgence of the dormant Bentley marque, that, with its fortunes on the rise, became the star of the Geneva Motor Show, attracting commissions from wealthy enthusiasts for totally bespoke vehicles.
Founding fathers Royce and Rolls melded engineering with marketing, but as marketing took over, this union fractured. The drama of how this British institution was divided between BMW and VW, and how aesthetic design, never cherished by British management, was increasingly recognised, is fundamental to the story. The bewildering number of projects during the 1990s is a genuine eye-opener and a phenomena that demanded unique people, skills, and facilities.
