Apparently the current bodywork is a period rebody as we have a lovely period picture showing this bodywork and the front window the car still has. With the car comes a sheet with Bentley history from 1923-1932, showing owners, maintenance and repairs in this period. First owner was a Mr L. Owen of Kensington London It already had an engine overhaul in 1928 according to factory records and again in 1930!
Names of owners were: E.S. Nelson 1954/1955, PJ Redsen -1957, R Danielle -1962, J.H. Roberts -1971, C.R. Bussay -1976, J.G. Galliers -2001, P. Sears -2004, Then to current Dutch owner. The car has Original English registration XO 9313 (EC tax paid) and can be imported without paying tax in other EC countries."

This is how real Bentley boys enjoyed their motoring long before the idiots with their matching numbers crap (well I've said it now, so you know where my heart lies).
This is a Bentley to enjoy. It runs great and because it has a later engine it can easily be upgraded to 4½ litre. Not only has it a later engine but 4½ litre self rapping brakes, compensator and 4½ litre steering making this special Bentley bloody marvelous to look at and drive."
