Launched in 1965, the Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow and Bentley T marked a revolutionary step forward for their manufacturer, Rolls-Royce. The new cars were the first from Rolls-Royce to feature monocoque (chassisless) construction, independent suspension and four wheel disc brakes. Both cars shared the same general specification and design, and both would remain in production until 1980. Today, the surviving cars are acknowledged as classics which can be bought for the same price as a modest new family car. This text is the full story of the Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow and Bentley T, associated models the Silver Wraith II Corniche and Camargue and related coachbuilt cars.

Review:
If you have any of the 3 earlier editions, it's time to upgrade ... This book has always been useful in all its iterations and this 4th edition deserves particular praise for being so much more than just a thinly disguised way of cashing in on the model s anniversary. --The Flying Lady
Rolls-Royce enthusiast and owners are an obvious target market, but I think this is a fascinating book that deserves an even wider an audience. --Classic driver (monthly)
