Wraith Specific

Guide to the Late Small Horsepower Car, Class 107 (applicable to the 25/30 and Wraith), Lee Hacker, 1995

Handbook of the 25/30 Rolls-Royce Car (“Wraith”), Number XIX, January 1962 reprint

There are differences between the Handbook of the 25/30 (without "Wraith") and the Handbook of the 25/30 "Wraith" Number XIX manuals. Handbook XIX is valid for the later series Wraith (C-series) #WHC1 to #WKC25 (1939). The first series of the Wraith model needed handbook XVIII and the 25/30 needed handbook XVII. So, there is only one handbook for 25/30 and two different handbooks for Wraith.
