Eleanor Velasco Thornton was the muse for the famous Rolls Royce 'Silver Lady', also known as 'the Spirit of Ecstacy'. Eleanor spent time in Royal Leamington Spa and a blue plaque has been placed outside her house, to recognise her connection to the famous emblem. Jon Murden, Chief Executive of The National Motor Museum, Beaulieu, spoke to Vic Minett about Eleanor, and revealed they have the original Silver Lady at the museum.
