The book is a work of reference and records all of the experimental cars produced by Rolls Royce Limited and latterly its successor Rolls Royce Motors Limited. It covers a period of over seventy five years, ever since the formation of the Experimental Department in 1910, and includes all Bentley experimental cars built since the takeover by Rolls Royce in 1931. Details of many of these cars have not previously been published and with others there has been an air of mystery which can now be resolved. Code names are usually adopted for future projects, adding to the air of mystery, but are fully explained in the text. The volume contains a mass of fascinating historical photographic material. Most of the illustrations have come from the Company’s photographic archives. Each chapter covers a succession of cars in the same chassis numbering series and shows the natural progression from one model to the next. For each car the book describes the basic specification, the work carried out as an experimental car plus what happened to it afterwards. Over the years, and particularly in recent times, ordinary productions cars have been acquired by the Experimental Department to assist with the programme of development work and so these are all listed in the Appendix. Details of the vast range of projected models in the Rationalised Range are included and Project Design and Styling in the post World War 2 periods are also covered.
