At Flying Spares, our mission is simple yet vital — to preserve the legacy of Bentley and Rolls-Royce by sourcing or developing discontinued parts, ensuring these timeless classics continue to thrive long after the manufacturers have moved on. Precision, passion, and preservation drive everything we do.

In August 2022, Bentley Motors discontinued a crucial component used in Rolls-Royce Silver Shadows and Bentley T1s, leaving owners with few options for replacement. Recognising the need, Flying Spares partnered with Lucas Classic Parts to create an OE-quality replacement that restores both functionality and authenticity.

 

 

The result is the Lucas Temperature Transmitter — meticulously engineered to deliver reliable and accurate readings to the dashboard temperature gauge. These have been fully tested, function-fitted, and come with a three-year warranty, ensuring confidence and long-lasting performance.

This transmitter is compatible with Rolls-Royce and Bentley models from 1965 to 1977.

Through collaborations like this, Flying Spares continues to breathe new life into automotive history — one precision-engineered part at a time.

At Flying Spares, we don’t just sell parts. We keep Bentley and Rolls-Royce heritage alive by stepping in where the manufacturers step back.
