1991–1992 Bentley Eight
1991–1997 Bentley Turbo R
1991–2002 Bentley Continental R/S/T
1999–2002 Bentley Arnage Red Label
1993–1996 Jaguar XJS
1994–1997 Jaguar XJR
1993–1997 Jaguar XJ12 / Daimler Double Six

So...did they buy the trans from GM then, or did they buy rights and build their own?

Makes sense that it was a "secret"...what would Rolls, Aston, Bentley, and Jag owners say if they knew they had GM parts in their cars?

I knew about the Jags through research, not the Bentley or Aston though.
