"This 1921 Bentley 3 Litre is in first class condition having been fully restored some 12 years ago.
The history buffs on Bentley will be pleased to point out that this is the fourth oldest surviving Bentley on the planet. Having said that, the condition is superb. So not only do we have a Bentley you can talk your socks off in the local but a really good driving 3 Litre Sports.
Finished in traditional British Racing Green with green leather interior but to keep the memsahib happy on those wet winter days, she comes complete with side screens (very cosy!)."
