Our 1958 Bentley S1 in a Cottonelle Commercial

I was watching TV the other night, and saw a nice looking Bentley S1 / Rolls Royce Silver Cloud in a Cottonelle commercial. Certain I had seen the car before, I had another look on http://www.cottonelle.com.

Right-hand drive, two tone gray over dove gray interior – surely this must be the 1958 Bentley S1 that came through our shop not too long ago…

After jumping to conclusions, sadly, upon further inspection, one of my colleages noticed that the grill of the commercial car has the distinctive boxy styling of a Rolls Royce grill (the Bentley grill is rounded), which means that this is a Silver Cloud, and not our S1.
