The S2 marked a significant moment in Bentley history as the first model to receive the 6.2-litre L-series V8 engine.

This distinctive gold-and-black example features an ivory leather interior, and the vendor tells us that it "runs and drives very well".

The odometer shows 29,622 miles, and the V5C is present, recording 5 former keepers.

While no maintenance history accompanies the car, it does come with a collection of MoT certificates covering 2006 to 2015, along with a DVLA number plate authorisation certificate.

The last MoT expired in 2018 (although as a historic vehicle, it is exempt from annual testing requirements).

The Bentley was first registered on 5th October 1962.
