Book Review....<br />

<strong>Bentley</strong> MkVI<br />

by<br />

Martyn Nutland<br />

This book is about the development and production history of the elegant and luxurious<br />

mainstream Rolls-Royce and <strong>Bentley</strong> models built between 1947 and 1965. Arguably,<br />

these cars – all built on chassis and echoing pre-war practices – were the last of the<br />

‘traditional’ Rolls-Royce and <strong>Bentley</strong> models. Many, many of these cars have survived<br />

to the present day: all are eminently collectible. Concept, design and development,<br />

production, promotion, publicity and the<br />

coachbuilt cars are covered, and there is also<br />

helpful practical advice on buying and running<br />

these cars, together with appendices of chassis<br />

number sequences and dates, build numbers<br />

and modifications, and development by chassis<br />

number. Illustrated with over 160 black and<br />

white and colour photos, this book is a mustread<br />

for anyone interested in automotive history.<br />
