"Whilst the Bentley Drivers' Club state that no information is known about Chassis no. 779 post 1955, a quick check on the DVLA webpage reveals that it still on the road, taxed and still green."

"My grandfather owned this Bentley AX6758 between 1949 and 1955 when it was used as the everyday family car. By this stage it was no longer wearing its original saloon body and had been converted to a open body."
