Providing Rolls-Royce & Bentley Parts for Heritage and Modern Models
For owners and specialists maintaining Rolls-Royce and Bentley vehicles from 1945 to the present, sourcing high-quality replacement parts is an increasing challenge. As original suppliers scale back production for older models, Prestige Parts ensures that critical components remain available, whether for restoration or ongoing maintenance.
In this behind-the-scenes look, Managing Director John Tupper explains how Prestige Parts identifies, develops, and manufactures Rolls-Royce and Bentley replacement parts that meet or exceed original specifications.
Filling the Gap: Why Prestige Parts Exists
With the reduction of factory inventories for older Rolls-Royce and Bentley models, many essential parts have become unavailable. Prestige Parts was established to address this gap, ensuring that owners and specialists can continue servicing vehicles without compromise.
Since 2006, the brand has developed an extensive catalog of aftermarket parts, covering models from post-war classics like the Bentley Mark VI and Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud to modern vehicles like the Bentley Continental GT and Rolls-Royce Ghost. Each part is designed to match original factory standards, with an emphasis on engineering accuracy and durability.
The Engineering Process: From Concept to Production
Developing replacement parts for discontinued Rolls-Royce and Bentley components requires precision. Many original parts, particularly rubber seals, gaskets, and mechanical components, have no existing technical drawings. Prestige Parts reverse-engineers these components using existing samples, CAD modeling, and modern manufacturing improvements.
One example is the steering column gator (anti-fume seal) for classic Rolls-Royce and Bentley models. Since the original part was unavailable and lacked engineering drawings, the team recreated it by:
- Analyzing surviving samples
- Generating 2D and 3D CAD models
- Adjusting materials and tolerances for improved longevity
- Creating custom tooling for manufacturing
This process ensures that every Prestige Parts component integrates seamlessly with heritage and modern Rolls-Royce and Bentley vehicles while incorporating subtle design improvements where necessary.
Inventory & Order Fulfillment: Ensuring Availability
To support Rolls-Royce and Bentley specialists, Prestige Parts operates a streamlined inventory and dispatch system. The warehouse is organized to prioritize fast-moving essential parts, such as brake discs, suspension components, and engine seals.
Key aspects of the order fulfillment process include:
- Direct-to-dispatch ordering: Online purchases are processed immediately, reducing delays.
- Optimized warehouse layout: High-demand parts are positioned for rapid picking and shipping.
- Next-day delivery options: Recognizing the urgency of repairs, particularly for workshop-based specialists.
By maintaining stock of thousands of parts across different models, Prestige Parts helps ensure classic Rolls-Royce and Bentley cars remain roadworthy without extended downtime.
Commitment to Quality & Customer Input
Prestige Parts actively seeks feedback from Rolls-Royce and Bentley owners, restorers, and service professionals to determine which parts are most urgently needed. Many developments come directly from customer requests, helping guide future manufacturing priorities.
Additionally, Prestige Parts was the first in the industry to offer a three-year warranty on replacement components—a level of confidence not even provided by factory parts suppliers.
If there’s a part you need that isn’t available, let us know. Your feedback helps shape the future of Rolls-Royce and Bentley replacement parts.
