When this thread was active, I was desperate to find something I knew I had but could not find, here it is...

A Silver Ghost article was pulished in the American car magazine, Car and Driver July 1964, below.

Lesney had copies of this mafazine in their research library.

This is the Silver Ghost article featured inside and it shows a 1906 Silver Ghost. This has got to be a 1906 40-50 HP Rolls-Royce, not a Silver Ghost, The Silver Ghost name did not exist in 1906!

Maybe, just maybe, this is what Lesney have based their Y-10 Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost on.

The car by the way is an early Series 1 Corniche. Problems arise when it needs some touch up paint... :D

Touch up paint?
Don't you mean "localised embellishments"
Just like they "fail to proceed" rather than break down
