Not a Lot of People Know That

In the film ‘The Yellow Rolls-Royce’, the original car used was a yellow Barker-bodied Phantom II but sharp eyed Rolls-Royce watchers will observe that the carchanges at least twice in the course of filming. (Clue - position of spare wheel).

The Peninsula Hotel in Hong Kong once had a fleet of ten Rolls-Royce’s for useby its guests.

When American troops entered Mussolini’s headquarters in Rome at the end ofthe fighting in Italy, among the things they ‘liberated’ were two Rolls-Royce motorcars - the property of the fascist dictator.

Alfred Vanderbilt II was reported as selling his Rolls-Royce for an excellent reason:“Every time I get out of it, everything else seems like an anti-climax.”


The Chairman’s Bit

Barry Gallafent

If I have not seen you already, Happy New Year to you, I amsure none of us can believe yet another year has passed.

The Section enjoyed a very busy year in 2013 with a variedcalendar of events bringing out a good number of memberson each occasion as well of course, as a superb variety ofmotor cars. The year culminated in the AGM at Mitchell Hall,Cranfield, where we were joined by joined by ManagementCommittee member, Rolf Kuhnke. Unfortunately Rolf couldnot stay for lunch as he had to head for Harwich to catch the

ferry home as he made his way back to Germany. Whilst in the UK, Rolf collected hisBentley SI Drophead Coupé from Hillier Hill in Olney, where it had been for someservice work. Its gleaming presence in the Mitchell Hall car park was one of only ahandful of club cars that had ventured out given the weather that day.

At the AGM, the existing Section Committee stood for re-election with the exception ofVal Yates, who after more than twenty years continuous service had chosen to retire.Val was thanked for her considerable service and presented with a bouquet on behalfof the Section. The committee were re-elected en-bloc as is permitted under sectionrules. One further member, Janet Dolan was elected also, her nomination having beenproperly submitted to the Section Secretary.

Your committee have been working hard as always to ensure our 2014 calendar is asfull as ever with some interesting outings as well as the traditional lunches. Somemore difficult to confirm events are still to come, so the calendar as published in thisedition of the PP is far from complete. Do keep looking out as the year progresses,both in the PP and on the section website so you don’t miss anything. One suchunusual event is our steam hauled train trip to Buxton Spa in Derbyshire on Saturday15th March. We have secured our own Premier Dining carriage on the train andanticipate a very good day out.

Communication with our members has been foremost in the committee’s thoughts andto that end we have re-confirmed every Section members details over the past year toensure you receive your PP regularly and to have gained as many email addresses aswe can. Email addresses enable us easily to confirm the event bookings you make andto notify you of any important issues or short notice events between PP publicationdates. It may be that a friend or colleague informs you they no longer receive the PP bypost. This will be because they have not returned their form to our membershipcoordinator, Mark Warnock. To rectify this, they should simply email him or give hima ring, request a form and return it as soon as possible. On-going, a confirmation ofSection membership will be included each year with a copy of the PP as it is arequirement of Sections, as it is of the Club, that members register once annually.


A new venue for the Section, Greens Restaurant at Collingtree Park Golf Club, is wherewe shall be holding our first lunch of 2014 (probably a week or so ago before you readthis). Not only is it a new venue but I am delighted to say the event has been organisedby one of the Section’s newer members. Any member is welcome to suggest an event orto offer to organise an existing event at any time, just contact the events coordinator(see contacts) with your ideas. If you are a little apprehensive, a committee memberwill always be happy to support you. Why not give it some thought?

In February, we will be having our now new members lunch at The Hunt House. Therewill be a general welcome to all new members since the last time, followed by anintroduction to the facilities available at The Hunt House and a guided tour of thebuilding. Lunch will be served in the conservatory. The archive section is likely to beof particular interest, for it is here that you are likely to find the original build file foryour car. From original specification to delivery and subsequent warranty work, theClub’s archives house files on thousands of vehicles. If you have your chassis numberwith you, you may just be able to see your own vehicle file. Copies of these files areavailable to order from The Hunt House at around £40 by contacting the Club recordsarchivist, Martika Kennedy on 01327 810786. Orders for build files can be placed onthe day of the new members lunch and will be despatched soon after.

May I wish you all a very happy and healthy motoring season ahead and I lookforward to seeing you at an event soon.

Autumn Road Run - Sunday 20th Cctober

On Sunday October 20th we drove to the Fancott Arms near Toddington to meet fellowmembers for a leisurely drive followed by lunch. As we entered the pub, we were metby the buzz of chatter with lots of smiles and friendly greetings; a very good turn outtoo. As relatively new members to the club, we can honestly say, it is a wonderfullyfriendly group.

After more chat and a welcome cup of coffee we set off to explore the Bedfordshirecountryside. Unbelievably, the wet start to the day gave way to sunshine and most ofthe journey was dry and bright. As the weather prevented us from bringing the 20/25,we hitched a ride with another new member, Mark Versallion in his Silver Spirit andwere very fortunate because he knew the area well and pointed out some interestinglandmarks including Alistair Cook’s family farm! The route was lovely; particularlythe drive through Woburn. The deer looked suitably impressed by the convoy of vehiclesand the colour of the trees was magnificent.

We returned to the pub for a very welcome and enjoyable lunch, happy that we wereinside as the heavens opened! Barry and Ruth organised an excellent event and everyonewas very appreciative. Some of us newer members decided that it was good to sharecars occasionally as it gave us such a brilliant opportunity to get to know each otherbetter! Maybe the weather had done us a favour!

Visit to Rolls-Royce Motor Cars - Thursday 24th October

Writing on a damp Halloween and following a much hyped storm in the south east onSt Jude’s day, makes me appreciate what a lucky band we were last week when wedrove in warm Autumn sunshine to Goodwood to the Rolls-Royce production plant(factory just doesn’t seem the right description).

Like many club members I suspect, Allan and I had applied to visit on a couple ofoccasions and not been lucky enough to win a place. But I’d encourage you to persevere.It was well worth the wait. There were 32 of us in 17 club cars on the day. The drivethrough the South Downs was very pleasant and the mild weather encouraged a goodrepresentation of Rolls and Bentleys. A last minute plea from RR to bring the oldestvehicles resulted in a varied display and meant for example that Lulu Belle camerather than the Chris and Linda’s newer Bentley.

Finding the factory was a little challenging for those of us yet to submit to the commandsof sat nav. Unlike the old Rolls aero engine factory of my Coventry childhood, the plantblends seamlessly into the Sussex countryside. And not just at ground level. The 3.5hectare roof is covered in local grasses and sedum plants which make it almostinvisible from the air. So those billionaire owners who want to take a glimpse whensending their personal jets to take delivery of their new Phantom – yes that doeshappen – may not be able to see where their new toy was built.

Rolls-Royce Motor Cars HQ


The Goodwood plant serves as the headquarters, design, manufacturing and assemblycentre for Rolls Royce Motor Cars. Officially opened for business on 1 January 2003,the plant has been expanded twice since, and now covers 22,500 square metresemploying 1500 workers. Designed by Sir Nicholas Grimshaw, architect of the Edenproject in Cornwall, the £60m building is a beacon of innovative design creating anenvironment which is good for employees, local community and of course the assemblyof cars. Visitors are catered for too with an elevated walkway route over the workshopareas meaning that we could see all the work going on without getting in anyone’sway. For some of us that was perhaps a little disappointing as you couldn’t get closeto the cars as you can at Crewe. But as Jane, our enthusiastic guide, reminded us,these cars are all built to order. They are already someone’s cherished motor and theyintend to keep them pristine.

After a short introduction and brief resume of the Rolls story we donned beige workcoats and set off for our guided tour. It’s a long walk - over two hours -and some tookadvantage of the seats in the leather trim department for a breather.

Not only does the factory not look like a factory, it doesn’t smell like one either. Noscent of swarf; no dark corners or harsh fluorescent lighting. Natural light floodsthrough the miles of plate glass windows giving workers a surreal view of the ducksfloating serenely by on the garden’s water feature. And the language is different too.No “Paint Shop” here. Rolls has a “Surface Finish Centre” where 30 kg of paint areapplied to each car. This sterile environment forbids the use of deodorants, perfumesor jewellery on its male and female workforce to ensure no damage to the cars’bodywork. The bodies of course are not manufactured in the UK but in the BMW plantsin Germany. But the British craftsmanship is shown to its full in the personalisationof trim; the paint, wood and leather. Despite the vast array of standard colours tochoose from, for some customers this is still not enough. One required a unique shadeof “Desert Gold” which contained 19g of gold per litre. The paint for that one car alonehas a bullion value of £22,300. We saw examples of the Phantom and Ghost beingefficiently put together at stations using meticulously numbered elements from the“parts supermarket”. And of course we saw the new Wraith, launched in September2013 which is already sold out and has a waiting list of six months.

The numerous choices of leather andwood finishes created debate. Thoughnone could doubt the skill and ingenuityin their production, some combinationsof colour and finish were not enjoyed byall. But then we are talking about a globalmarket for these cars. China, currently thebiggest customer, sees piano black withred leather as a popular choice as it’sseen as bringing good fortune. If you wantto see just how personal a scheme can

be, you can try for yourself by downloading the official Phantom and Ghost apps onyour iPad. Produced by Rolls Royce these free apps can give hours of pleasure as youplay with paint, leather, wood and wheel trim.

And for those of you who wish you had been able to join us, all is not lost. We werefollowed on our tour by a film crew from Channel 4 who were creating a programmeon famous, high quality brands. And they don’t come much more famous than RollsRoyce. Look out for more news in Paulerspury People of when the show will be goingon air.

Thanks to Derek and Sylvia Freeman’s tireless arrangements, many of us chose to stayovernight at the excellent Crouchers Hotel in nearby Birdham village. There we werejoined for dinner by Andrew Ball, Head of Communications of Rolls Royce and hiscolleague (Henrietta) from New York. One thing we learned was that the Rolls 4 wheeldrive car featured on the recent edition of Autocar is not to be taken too literally. Andwho arranged the Spitfire flyover at the end of the tour? I forgot to ask. But a dramaticend to a splendid visit.

Now, forty seven years after its

foundation, Chris Lee’s Ltd can

boast an endless list of famous

connections, and the line-up of

celebrities that have been served by

the garage reads like the Who’s Who

of the entertainment industry. The

too, and in recent times work has

been carried out both for the King of

Malaysia and the Emir of Kano.

The trigger to the latter association

was a Silver Cloud III that had

been treated to a lengthy body-

off restoration in the UK but

subsequently developed problems.

Responsibility for rectifying the

gremlins was placed with Welshman

Ken Jasper who, after much research

beat a path to Chris Lee’s Ltd’s

Bucks. An agreement was made and

it was while in Nigeria investigating

eyes on ‘ALW 11’.

Immortalised in miniature by the

French model makers FYP, body

No.9867 to Hooper design N.833 was

originally commissioned in 1952 by

the eccentric Turkish-born playboy

Nubar Gulbenkian. An extremely

elegant and capacious four-door

cabriolet, it featured numerous

unique touches including: a folding

roof structure that was way ahead of

its time in retracting completely from

view; a rear mounted speedometer

so its master could encourage his

RESTORERS OF ROYAL ROLLS-ROYCES

Chris Lee’s personal association with the Rolls-Royces of royalty

dates back to his days as a Hythe Road apprentice, during which he

establishment of his eponymous business specialising in the service,

repair and restoration of the products of Crewe and Derby, he had the

pleasure of tending to the cars of the Duke of Gloucester and Princess

Margaret, and her personal letter of thanks is among his more treasured

‘ALW 11’ undergoing restoration


chauffeur to ever higher speeds; and

fully-faired in front lights. Famous

for transporting her Majesty the

Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh

during their 1956 visit to Nigeria it

was, by 2009, in desperate need of

restoration – a no-expense-spared

task that ultimately occupied 100 per

cent of Chris Lee’s director Martin

Hawes from June 2010 to July 2011.

Long since back in Kano, the Emir’s

pride and joy is once again enjoying

state duty.

One thing’s for sure, life is never dull

at Chris Lee’s Ltd and the company’s

latest major project is a contract to

assist a global Philippines-based

restoration company in the renovation

of classic Rolls-Royces and Bentleys,

as a result of which no less than

18 straight six and V8 engines are

currently in various stages of rebuild.

Says Chris, who had a hand in

building the Phantom VI he now owns

while serving his apprenticeship: “A

Rolls-Royce has featured in pretty

much every day of my working life to

date, and I really can’t imagine things

any other way!”

Bedfordshire Sunday Lunch - Flitwick Manor - Sunday 3rd November

The native Saxon village of Fleotwic, literally ‘dwelling on the river’, centred aroundthe high ground was the venue of this years’ Beds Pub Lunch – Flitwick Manor. Nestlingin the tranquillity of rolling gardens and wooded parkland, the Menzies FlitwickManor is a true country house hotel.

Located near the historic village of Woburn, this 17th century house continues itsancestral traditions of hospitality. The hotel’s award winning a la carte restaurantoffers a tempting menu and we enjoyed the best of British fayre in lovely surroundings.It is true that the transfer from private hands to the Mercure brand has somewhatsoftened the impact, but the quality of the food was very good. There was a slight issuewith a lack of gravy, but this was only a small distraction.

It was lovely to see some new members at the event and equally all the members whoactively support everything we do and arrange throughout the year. As usual we werefully booked with over 50 members in attendance and a waiting list of more than 10 –a sobering lesson to book early to avoid disappointment! Thanks especially go to Valand Danny for the arrangements – another great lunch.

It was cosy at Flitwick Manor


Open Morning at Hiller Hill - Saturday 30th November

I couldn’t make up my mind whether to accompany my other half to an open morningat Hillier Hill but decided to go as it has been quite a while since I have been there inspite of living very close by. After all, if I got bored there would inevitably be a fewother ‘bored wags’ to talk to.

I definitely won’t sound like a feminist when I say that a morning looking round carsisn’t what most women like to do. Surely we girls are equally as interested as the boys.Would it be politically incorrect to think otherwise? Judging by the number of femalespresent (three not counting Mandy who works there) I think I can safely say thatvisiting Olney’s industrial estate wasn’t a priority for most of the women.

However the surprise for me was what an interesting morning it turned out to be. Overcoffee and lots of noshing of croissants, pains de chocolat etc, Ray Hiller gave a shorttalk describing what Hillier Hill are doing these days and introducing his businesspartner Tony Hill and all the other members of staff who make up the team.

The business has expanded over the years from one unit to two with the third(conveniently next door) being taken on almost a year ago. We were given a tour ofeach unit. The first is the original premises of Hillier Hill and is where the routinework and servicing take place and there were several examples of Rolls-Royce andBentley for us to see. Ray’s own car was on a ramp so we could see a just completedexample of an under body protection process using Tectyl. I have to say that is the veryfirst time I have ever walked under a car on a ramp. Until now undersides of cars havebeen a complete mystery to me.

Customers cars in for various servicing requirements


Michael Digby, the auto electrician has developed a contraption that looks like halfa car seat that he uses to test faulty seat mechanisms. Instead of doing this in situ, hetakes the electronic unit out of the car and connects it up to the kit thus making it fareasier to work out where the fault lies. To make this, Michael had to wire up his ‘boxof tricks’ to exactly the specification used in Rolls-Royce cars. For his innovation hewas awarded second prize in an annual competition run by the Rolls-Royce andBentley Specialists Association and awarded by the Worshipful Company ofCoachmakers.

Chris Leath another mechanic at Hillier Hill also won first prize in the inauguralapprentice award scheme in 2010.

In the next unit there is a new MOT bay. It is proving very useful to have this facility onsite as it saves a lot of time. They carry out MOTs on any vehicle and you get tea andbiscuits and a comfortable seat while you wait. There were more customers’ cars to beseen including our own 1967 Silver Shadow which is currently in the workshop for abit of over winter maintenance. John Macrae’s new Bentley a beautiful sporty opentop tourer is in to have a few things done to it before next year’s motoring season. Heand his son came along to check its progress. There were several other cars one ofwhich was awaiting a rubber seal for the rear screen. For some reason the originalhad been discarded by a previous garage not realising that it’s virtually impossible toget replacements. Another vehicle had been bought from new, driven about 2500 milesand then put in storage for a considerable amount of time. Hillier Hill is carrying outmaintenance work to bring it back to a state where it can be used on the road again.Unit number three is the place where long term restorations are carried out. We sawa beautiful example of the work that Hillier Hill do in an award winning Silver Shadow.The car looked immaculate in every way and had returned to the workshops to havespecially made cloth seats fitted.

At the back end of the workshop is another car which is having a full back-to-chassisrestoration. In fact the chassis was there for us to see in all its splendidly restoredstate. Where was the rest of the car? Well, the body is away for restoration andspraying. Many parts are laid out in what seems to be a very methodical way, awaitingreturn to the vehicle at a later stage, with nuts, bolts and screws carefully arranged.The engine has been completely rebuilt by Tony and that sits on a cradle elsewhere inthe workshop. All the other bits, presumably things like seats, tyres and whatever elseare carefully stored away on the mezzanine out of sight.

After our tour we were left to wander round as we liked (being careful of course to onlylook and not touch the customers’ cars) and ask questions before a quick wash upsession and more coffee before departure.

During our tour we spotted the beautiful Bentley SI Continental pictured below whichis cared for by Hillier Hill. It belongs to MC member Rolf Kuhnke who very kindly


permitted us to use this photograph of it. There were many other vehicles to photographof course but Hillier Hill respect the privacy of their clients at all times and do notallow photography without their previous consent

Girls, you should have come along. It was a very interesting morning, NOT TOOTECHNICAL and very impressive. You might have enjoyed it.

Thanks to the crew at Hillier Hill for giving up their morning for us.

Note: Hillier Hill made no charge for this visit or the refreshments they provided butinvited the Section to collect £5 person from all attendees for charity. Our chairmantook charge of this and collected £180 which we have donated to Breast Cancer Care.

AGM and Christmas Lunch - Sunday 8th December

The Section AGM took place as has become tradition, at the Mitchell Hall, Cranfieldon Sunday 8th December and was very well attended. The occasion was once againorganised by Val Yates, thanks to her for doing such a splendid job.

Prior to the AGM, members met in the bar area for tea and coffee as Val Mitchelwandered amongst them, selling raffle tickets with a lovely smile!

The AGM started promptly at 11:00 and all members present were recorded as beingso, by the Secretary and his good wife.

The Chairman welcomed everybody and invited any matters arising from the previousAGM minutes, there were none and the minutes were approved. He then gave a briefsynopsis of the year, including events past and present. He outlined our membershipinitiative, administered by membership coordinator Mark Warnock, explaining thatwe were now confident our active mailing data contained ‘genuine’ Section membersonly and we were not wasting time or money on people who had no interest in theSection.

The Chairman announced that the committee had offered itself entirely for re-election,with the exception of Val Yates, who was retiring after more than twenty yearscontinuous service. Those members present agreed to the election of the committeeen-bloc. The Chairman announced an additional, returning committee member, JanetDolan, whose form had been duly proposed and seconded in accordance with therules, prior to the meeting. Janet was duly elected.

Treasurer Kathy Martin had circulated the Section financial report prior tocommencement of the meeting and briefly reported on the healthy state of the Sectionfinances and informed members that all monies due to the Section from the courtregarding the case against treasurers past, had now been received and the matter wasclosed. Kathy invited questions of her report but there were none.

Secretary - Steve Dolans’ brief report

Chairman Barry Gallafent presentsVal Yates with her flowers


The Secretary’s report was indeed brief and the Chairman joked that we would nowhave a spare twenty minutes in which to amuse ourselves before the next item.

The Tom Shanks Rose Bowl was awarded to Steve and Janet Dolan and the Chairmanpresented Val Yates with a beautiful floral display on behalf of the Section.

Club Management Committee member Rolf Kuhnke was in attendance and addressedthe AGM with a prepared update of the main club situation and the developments atthe Hunt House and on the Management Committee during the year. Members listenedintently to Rolf and when he invited questions, there were none. The MC had agreed auniform address to Section AGM’s and the aforementioned ‘prepared update’ meantall Sections would receive the same information at their AGM, regardless of whopresented it. This was designed by the MC to ensure both the content and accuracy ofwhat was conveyed was the same for all members. Rolf had to depart prior to lunch inorder to catch the last ferry of the day from Harwich,the last before Wednesday actually, on his journey byroad back to Germany.

Pre-Lunch drinks were enjoyed in the bar area wheremembers were able to catch up with each other andhave a chat. Lunch was called promptly at 1:00p.m.and everyone made their way through to the diningroom. Following Lunch, the Chairman announced thedraw for the raffle; prizes were kept to a minimum, sothis was not too boring. Prize winners seemed to befairly well distributed amongst the tables. Duringcoffee, we were treated to a visit from Santa Claushimself and a small gift was presented to each lady.Bert Gladwin told Santa that he remembered him whenhe was just a small boy. Santa made an ‘unheard’comment to Bert and Bert called Santa a cheeky buggerbut before he could give him a clip around the ear,Santa was gone!

Alan Goddard thanks the committee for their work The Chairman bids Rolf Kuhnke farewell
