Description

This 4.9-litre six-cylinder Bentley S1 was registered in July 1956 and is showing 69,819 miles on its odometer.

Its last Mo

T expired in August 2021 after being tested the previous year at an indicated 68,835 miles.

However, as an historic vehicle, the Bentley no longer requires annual testing.

The S1 is running and driving; during our test drive we noted some travel on the brake pedal.

Paperwork includes the V5C, some build records, a couple of Mo

T certificates and the owner's handbook.
