Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1955 Bentley R-Type Continental Coupé by Franay is a unique, one-off coachwork, the last designed by Marius Franay. It features rare left-hand drive and is one of only nine with an automatic gearbox, restored to its original specification and showcased at Villa d’Este in 2003.

Condition
8
The car was fully restored in June 1999. Since then, the car has participated in the 2003 Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este before winning its class the following year at the fourth annual European Concours d’Elegance in Düsseldorf, Germany. Finished entirely in black, the car exhibits a deep shine. The brightwork is tasteful and brief, a simple rocker panel moulding meeting a bright stone-guard on the rear wing. The interior is done in attractive beige leather with matching carpets. The dashboard and interior woodwork are polished to a high-gloss finish, and the engine compartment is clean and correctly detailed.
