This car has been owned by Christopher Jonas since 1984.

We received the following from Christopher Jonas on January 6, 2010:
"The body was built by HM Bentley in 1935, and is the only body like this. Johnnie Green in his book says of the car "Does the design of the body owe anything to Mercedes". It is a fantastic fast car."

Text in advt reads: Bentley Speed Six. Specification by H. M. Bentley. Magnificent, this car must be seen as no photo can do justice to her lines.

"My grandfather James Coates owned this (BXB 8) Bentley for many years, it was sold upon his death in 1981. I would like any information about this and other Bentleys he and his daughter owned. I have contacted various dealers with no luck. Then last night I googled BXB 8 (again) and up came your page with a reference to the registration number change to YR 3263 and all the details. I will get back to you with all the information I can find about this and other vintage Bentleys my family owned (there was at least three)."
