This early 3 L was originally owned by Wardell Brothers of Dunedin. In 1957 Don Oddie of Timaru purchased it from the Studholme family of Rangitata, and about 1959 sold it to John Kennedy of Dunedin. Later this car was owned by Trevor Timms, who later sold it to Edgar Ridgen of Greendale, Canterbury, seen here attending to a battery problem? This Bentley is now owned (?) by Edgar Ridgen's daughter Katie Parish.
