Greetings all, One of our Victoria Branch Members has asked me if anyone knows about the work that Graham Whitehouse of the UK does to modify Rolls-Royce and Bentley motorcars. Apparently there was a brief article in the February edtion of Classic & Sports Car Magazine (he sent me a scan as attached), by Martin Buckley and he was wondering exactly what modifications were carried out to make the car the 'Best Car I Drove.'  I personally prefer them as they are. Clouds are lovely to drive anyway, however I would appreciate any feedback. | ||

Thank you Stephe, I see in his conversion, he changes the transmission to a modern 4 speed, the prop shaft, the anti roll bar, headlamps, sound system, front brakes to discs and removes the old servo to a modern vaccuum system,modern universals, central locking and the list goes on. All this for a total (if you go for the whole package)of 26,450 pounds. I have no doubt that the conversion would bring the Cloud into the 21st. century, but then it's no longer a Cloud, is it? Owners that want all these gizmos would be better served with a Seraph. I love the Clouds for what they are don't you? |
