Three way negotiations between

The need for a new engine was recognised by Rolls-Royce in the early 1950s and its development began in 1952, bearing no relation to the 1905 Rolls-Royce V8. The result was a series of V8 engines known as the L series, more specifically the "L410" for its bore size of 4.1 in (104.14 mm), in

Volkswagen's bid to purchase Rolls-Royce and
