"We saw this Bentley in Belgium in 2008. The car carries a Belgian road plate with the (original) British registration number beneath it. It starts with a 'Y' and ends with a '0'. There seems to be only one suitable known candidate: FT3222 with Reg no. YX 4620. The owner claimed it was an original Vanden Plas open tourer body which matches with the description in the database."
