Other information This very elegant Rolls-Royce has an interesting 4-door cabriolet body with a remarkably modern soft top for its time. Three Rolls-Royce chassis were bodied at the time by Martin Walter in Southampton, a specialist in four-door convertibles.

This 25/30 model (4 1/4 liters) is the evolution of the famous Bentley-born 20/25 (3 1/2 liters). Its modernity, suppleness, power, power-assisted braking and precise gearbox make it an easy to live with pre-war car, whose superb bodywork is an invitation to long-distance travelling.

I discovered the range of the little Rolls-Royces and Bentleys known as the small series, during the London-Peking rally, when only a similar Bentley was able to keep pace with my Morgan +8 for a grueling forty-two days ... when I say long-distance!
