"My father owned this car in the early 1950s and sold it as far as I remember in the late 50s-early-60s. I travelled many miles in as a teenager and loved it. I still have afew photos of it somewhere I'll try and find them. They are mainly ones I took with a brownie box camera! and some professional snaps of the car on the Eastbourne Rally which my father did for a few years.The Bentley took us on holiday every summer from Essex to Cornwall at 8 mpg! Never let down. Will email photos when i find them if it 's helpful."
