1937 Bentley 4-1/4 Litre All Weather by Vanden Plas.
Rolls-Royce acquired Bentley Motors from Walter Owen Bentley in 1931 taking the company in an entirely new direction with the creation of the "Silent Sports Car" or Derby Bentley. The chassis was built at the Rolls-Royce and Bentley Motors Works in Derby, England and bodied by Vanden Plas, prominent British coachbuilders.
A total of 1234 4-1/4 Litre cars were produced between 1936 and 1939.
A characteristic of the Vanden Plas All Weather is that the doors are hung from the 'B' post and the hood, when folded, sits above the level of the doors. The All Weather Tourer also has roll-up windows and a disappearing B pillar. Only 19 All Weather 4-1/4 Litre Bentleys were built by Vanden Plas.
For me, the american muscle cars really gets the motor running, but the classic lines of a pre WWII Rolls Royce always captured my interest...and, that hood ornament is truly one of the all time best.
I apologize for the dump and run, but work demands my attention these past days. Please trust I'll catch up with your streams later.
A summer walking holiday to Austria fortunately coincided with a historic car rally amid the spectacular mountain scenery of the Austrian Alps. The Arlberg Classic Car Rally attracts owners and their gleaming vehicles from across Europe and comprises 600 km and 20 stages over 4 days.

Genuine right hand Rolls. Jeeves: I wish to go on the train hunt. Kindly put us in pursuit. Pip-pip, Tally-Ho and all that sort of Rott.
Seen surrounded by people. Edited in the new Photoshop to 1) remove people, 2) add perspective (the cobber stones).

I kind of like the result I get with my 5 megapixel Canon powershot. With a little lightroom work and a curves layer on it and it takes a style all its own.
About five minutes before seeing this one we were passed by a similar blue SIlver Shadow, but with no vinyl roof.
The second one of these I've seen fairly local to me, and this one on what looks like an old Norfolk registration.
