"My father (John Hullett) owned this car between 1979 and 1987. It was originally a 1949 Bentley Mark IV. It was 4.5 litres. He bought it after it had been revamped to look like a vintage Bentley. He bought it from a farmer in Chemlsford (I can't remember his name) I'll ask my dad!"

"This car is a special, built on a 1949 Mk VI chassis and has an R-Type engine and gearbox. The car chassis was modified by Alan Padgett. In my ownership the car has been enhanced and now sits on 19" wire wheels and has a new fuel tank, amongst other things. Alan's photo was taken when we were on our annual trip to the Le Mans 24 race."

"Bentley registered KNF 989, pictured on the M20 on Thursday June 12 2014"
"I was looking for coaches on the M20 when I saw two Bentleys in tandem coastbound two days ago. One was CWO 121, the other registered KNF 989. I would welcome any info you can provide for my own records. I have forwarded a copy of two pics I snapped between junctions 4 and 5. Both looked lovely, I have to say!"
