Great, Harv!  I never seen the 1:1 or the 1:43.  Special!  And thanks for a really good post.

I have that Phantom in metallic black with great detailing from good ol' Minichamps.     The RR lineup has been totally updated for over a decade and none have been modeled. They are far more interesting and performance -oriented than the those of the '00s decade.

Great find Harv. I've never seen one of these on the road. I prefer the grey top on your model to the full sized version that you found.

@david-green There was a RR dealership, sorry, 'Agent' near my old office and they had the Phantom convertible, sorry, 'drop-head coupe' dominating the showroom.  You can't imaging how huge it is until you stand next to one -- the front fender was about as high as that of a Suburban.  [I would stop in to the parts dept to look for dealer-edition Bentleys.  But of course not on a casual dress-down Friday].
