Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1949 Bentley MK VI H.J. Mulliner Drophead Coupe, one of only four with this coachwork style, was originally sold to William Whiteley Esq. It features a boot lid mounted spare wheel and Tudor Grey Metallic finish. Having been part of a significant private collection for 39 years and showing just 52,000 miles, it retains its original hood, leather upholstery, and carpets and comes with a copy of its initial sales invoice, buff logbook, and tool kit, adding to its desirability.
Condition
7
The car appears to be in remarkably original condition, with only 52,000 miles on the odometer. It has been maintained by reputable mechanics and has benefited from a stainless steel exhaust installation. The coachwork, doors, boot, and hood mechanism still operate with precision. However, the hood could use some re-stitching, suggesting that some minor reconditioning may be needed.
