Description
Year: 1978 Make: Bentley Model: T2 Long Wheelbase Registration: LIA 7813
Chassis No: LBH32787
Odometer: 150,487 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 grille and different bonnet while the badging on the wheel covers, boot lid and gauges naturally featured Bentley motifs.
In October 1966, the ‘T’ saloon's pre-tax 'list price' of £5,375 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.
This rare luxury long wheelbase Bentley T2 was first registered on 20 th January 1978, the car is one of only two built this production year and is presented in Scots Pine Green coachwork with a contrasting cream leather opulent trim.
