Bosting a complete ownership history and all matching numbers, this 4 Litre has had all the upgrades a Bentley boy could wish for.
Shortened in 1946 by the famous Syd Laurence to a 9 9 wheelbase and benefiting from a steel crank and rods, prepared for racing but never raced, she is a real thoroughbred in the Bentley world.
The last owner enjoyed her for the past 20 years and the opportunity has finally come for a new custodian.
