Prices when new

The prices of new Silver Shadow models are grown on the UK-market in the way the next table summarizes. During that period a Bentley with the same specifications as a Rolls-Royce of the same type was £60 to £72 cheaper. This difference in price was caused completely by the care for the making of the Flying Lady. The code "•" means that that model was not sold at that moment. An empty compartment of the table means that I don't know the price.
