Always wanted one of these, but never got one. Seem all the ones being sold on the 2nd hand market had the antenna missing.

Very nice trio. Of course FM included a supply of Grey Poupon with these!

The Bentley S1 is a personal favorite and a preference over the RR models.
The Bentley's softer edge grill design suits me better than the Roller's grill with its more rigid lines.
Here though, the paint shades chosen by FM drop the Bentley into third place.
The colors chosen for the two Rollers look much nicer in my view.
I'm unsure if this is true or just my wishful thinking, but I have a sense that FM released a limited edition S1 in a different colour(s)

Is it true that the tires are filled with Grey Poupon? Great pics!
