You may know that Rolls-Royce and Bentley Motors sent out magazines on a regular basis entitled “ Queste ”. These were sent out from about the late 1970s to the 1990s. Every now and then a very Special issue was produced..........I show below some pages from my own favourite, BENTLEY QUESTE.

Below is a VERY SPECIAL sales brochure for the Rolls-Royce and Bentley range ( excl. Phantom ) issued in 1978 and covering Silver Shadow 11, Corniche ( both Rolls-Royce & Bentley ), Silver Wraith 11, Bentley T2 and Camargue. 21 superb colour pages inside the covers. ALSO 6 separate top quality prints suitable for framing; on the reverse of each one is the full spec. of the car.
