I knew rolls took over Bentley but had no idea what it did to them! Quite sad for the inventor. Growing up in England in the 70s the idea was a Bentley was for people who had money but couldn’t afford a rolls.

To be fair, Rolls-Royce didn't do anything new, hostile and/or silent takeovers have always been around, it's harder to do now as you have to disclose a lot more and there's too much information out there but we see big companies buying up their competition just to shut them down, Amazon has been notorious for doing this, Google too.

The fact that W.O.Bentley died in my hometown sorta gives me chills.

Love your presentations. Integrating past and present images into the story make it interesting and artful. Thanks for the fine work and history.

My late father had a 1964 Bentley "S3", which was in fact a Rolls Royce Silver Cloud lll but with a different radiator grill. Nevertheless it was an incredibly civilised car to drive. I for one am delighted to see that after the controversial acquisition of Rolls Royce and Bentley Motors by the Volkswagen group from Germany, and the subsequent sale for a "bargain price" of Rolls Royce to B.M.W., Volkswagen kept the Bentley Marque. They have wisely decided to distance themselves from the one time "sister" company who, had always intentionally overshadowed them and return to Bentley's sporting roots. Now the marque rightfully has regained it's place as leaders amongst the automotive elite...!!

I never knew the story about Bentley in the 1960s I live in California and had a Bentley it was not an it was not a new Bentley it was used and it was beautiful and I loved it so much but it wasn't made for California Hills and Benedict Canyon. At least I can say I once owned the Bentley. Now I take the bus.

I will be waiting for the upcoming videos

You left out the part where a woman financed Bentley during the 20's and early 30's . I forget her name ? I've owned an '89 Bentley Turbo R for 5 years now. Sad to say , it's going up for sale when it comes out of hibernation .Buying my dream car , a '75 Rolls Royce SS .

Even today, one can see the Rolls Royce never built a sports car as Bentley have. Yes, some will say the "Dawn or Wrath" but they are no where near the Continental GT. Bentley have always been the inervaters even when with RR. Just look at the Bentayga Bentley introduced, only for RR to bring out the Cullinan which is no a patch compared to the Bentayga.

It all seems that Mr.Bentley had a cursed life too…. Just too many a few setbacks in his life that ultimately left him with nothing in the end…. Another sound proof of the existence of curses in human life.

not a word about the now most wanted Bentley: the Blower

I always love Bentley Just last two months ago I end up buying a my own Bentley and I love it beautiful design love it

Enjoyable - certainly! But the pivotal point about aluminum pistons has almost nothing to do with the weight of the car. Reducing the weight of the parts that move and change direction, thus combating enertia, is what made the difference. The authors lack of understanding and subsequent blunder, which was repeated, is a death blow to the piece.

Napier had intended to buy Bentley. Napier was once Rolls Royce's most hated enemy but Napier had stopped making cars after a disastrous model release to focus on their aero engine, the Napier Lion a Broad arrow 12 (John Cobb's Napier Railton land speed record car still exists and gets out every once and a while Lion powered car is still raced today). Napier decided to get back into cars by acquiring Bentley but was thwarted by RR. I am sure WO would have had a better time at Napier. There was a bit of a kerfuffle over the hidden RR purchase, Napier was not best pleased, a number of people have always maintained it was a dirty deed. The vido should have provided information the cars WO designed for other manufacureres including the Lagonda V12. To rub salt into the wound, Montague Napier had a big row with A.J. Rowledge, their then chief engineer who did most of the design work on the Lion, the Cub aero engine, and their cars. In my opinion, he was the greatest aero engine designer of his era in Britain and certainly up there in the world stakes. Rowledge went to Rolls Royce, where he had major input or acted as chief designer on the following aero engines, Condor III, Kestrel, Buzzard, the R (which replaced the Lion in the Schneider Cup races), did preliminary work on the Merlin before he became "unwell". When he returned to the company, he led a small team that designed the Exe X24, a very reliable engine, and RR's only air-cooled aero engine apart from the Pennine which was alarger version of the Exe . Sadly, the Exe was cancelled to allow more resources to be applied to fixing the serious issues with the early Merlin. Oh yes, in his spare time he designed a slew of smaller aero-related components and worked on the RR car chassis, creating a power brake system that was used for many years

The thumbnail is way too spooky

The end story is a bit more complicated that that. When Volkswagen, after purchasing what was the Rolls Royce car company. Were driven to use the 'Bentley' name because they did not happen to own the 'Rolls Royce' branding legally, because the Rolls Royce name had ownership by the Rolls Royce Jet engine factory.

Hey some strange commercial beginning at 9:40, did someone else get this strange interruuption?

Very odd images throughout. The video talks about W.O. as a young man but pictures him as an old man. The video lumps together cars that are decades apart and many that were produced decades after W.O.'s death. The video is talking about WWI but shows images from WWII. All in all this would be better as a podcast because the images are totally out of wack. (I never not tip in a restaurant, I never send food back, and I never ask to see the manager, if this video were a meal then it would be the exception.)
