Says Stanley Mann, "This is the real deal, not bullied up for concourse work but for serious rallying / racing." His website notes that the engine was rebuilt with phoenix crank rods, "by no less than top vintage Bentley restorers Elmdown... in fact the last 10 odd years she has been maintained by them." As for the body, he states that the Le Mans style fitted 23 years ago is still perfect with a slight patina.
Stanley Mann further states that the car now sports a new set of Blockley tyres, and was "fully serviced" by Stanley Mann's workshop last month.
