Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1998 Bentley Turbo RT Olympian is a rare find, one of only four ever made, and the only one commissioned by HR Owen. While boasting recent mechanical work and a well-maintained interior, there are a few cosmetic issues that need attention, offering an enthusiast the chance to own a unique piece of Bentley history with some room for improvement.
Condition
7
The car has had a lot of recent mechanical work including replacement of the cylinder head gaskets and exhaust manifold gaskets, new exhaust lock tabs, a new ram pipe to the head joints and plenum joints, water bypass joints and new O-rings, and replacement of the rocker cover gaskets. Cosmetically the car has minor corrosion starting on the bodyshell where the bottom of the front offside sidelight unit meets the bodywork, paint scuff on the corner of the front bumper, the offside rear bumper looks to have had a knock which has dislodged the bright trim strip from it and the area covering the driver’s arm rest could do with some hide food because it’s developing a slight crack in the surface.

This is a 1998 Bentley Turbo RT Olympian by Mulliner, and is one of four examples produced during the final year of production, three of which were commissioned for Mayfair Bentley agents, Jack Barclay.
But this one is unique, because it’s the only one commissioned by HR Owen.
The Olympian was built by Bentley’s in house coachbuilders, Mulliner, and had literally hundreds of special features to make these rarest of motor cars truly unique.
It is believed that only three Olympians are still in existence.
The factory build sheets detail dozens of pages of special features that only these models had.
(The personalized registration number you see here does not come with the car.) As with all the Olympian cars, this example initially left the factory finished in Twilight Blue, and it’s understood to have been changed to the current Graphite Grey by the first owner – it’s believed that the car was sent back to the Bentley factory for this work to be carried out.
