The Bentley T-Series was the Bentley
badged version of the Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow. available as a
four or two door saloon with coachwork by James Young or Mulliner
Park Ward. The Bentley differed from its Rolls-Royce equivalent by
its more rounded front grill. while the badging on the wheel
covers; boot lid and gauges naturally featured Bentley motifs
rather than the Rolls-Royce logo. In October 1966. the 'T' saloon's pre-tax
'list price' of £5. 75 undercut the Rolls-Royce by £50! The Bentley
was technically an identical twin of the Rolls-Royce and seemed to
have been purchased mostly by owners wishing for a more understated
luxury saloon. The earlier sporting image of Bentley motor cars
differing from Rolls-Royces had gone by the time the Silver
Shadow/Bentley 'T' was introduced and this was no longer a primary
reason to purchase a Bentley over the Rolls-Royce
sibling.

This
striking Bentley T2 was supplied by Kennings Ltd in Sheffield to
His Grace. the Duke of Devonshire on 14th June 1978. A copy of the
original build sheet when the car was first commissioned. together
with the final assembly inspection report are included in the
substantial history file. The Masons black coachwork is in very
good order and the beige trim virtually unmarked. It is
obvious
that KCX 480S
has been lovingly cared for. Our brief test drive confirmed this. br/>as she drove beautifully with no faults apparent. Supplied with a
V5 registration document and a full years Mot test certificate;
Bentley T2s are becoming increasingly difficult to find and are
often being purchased by the shrewd investor. after driving this
car it is easy to understand why.
