It was the first Rolls-Royce car to be offered with a factory built body which it shared, along with its chassis, with the Bentley Mark VI until 1952 and then the Bentley R Type until production finished in 1955. The car was first introduced as an export only model. The left hand drive manual transmission models had a column gear change, while right hand drives had a floor change by the door. Only with the R Type based model was it officially available on the home market, from October 1953.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: small;\"\u003eIn 1944 W. A. Robotham saw that there would be limited postwar demand for Rolls-Royce or Bentley chassis with a body from a specialist coachbuilder, and negotiated with the Pressed Steel Company a contract for a general-purpose body to carry four people in comfort on their postwar rolling chassis, fitted as always with a distinct Rolls-Royce or Bentley radiator. Though he stretched the demand to 2000 per year, Pressed Steel were \"nonplussed\" by the small demand.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oxford Diecast","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47512359928036,"sku":"L3-3-5-SD001","price":49.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/2391\/6772\/files\/Fullscreen_capture_5142023_34859_PM__87469.1684094677.1280.1280.jpg?v=1769560759","url":"https:\/\/awesomediecast.com\/products\/oxford-diecast-1-43-1951-rolls-royce-silver-dawn-maroon-black","provider":"Awesome Diecast LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
