AI Listing Summary
This 1960 Bentley S2, presented in a sophisticated Smoked Green over Sage Green two-tone, offers a rare opportunity with its two-owner history and extensive, well-documented maintenance record exceeding £50,000.

The exterior paint shows some minor blemishes and cracks on the door tops, indicating it is not in pristine or outstanding condition. However, the overall condition is described as impressive and the bodywork has been kept in good condition with minor cosmetic repairs. The interior is original and shows a charming patina.
