"
Yes I'm very privileged to still own the car, I bought it from the late George Daniels, who's Birkin single seater Bentley sold recently for a record fee. Once again thank you, I look at your web site almost every day, it is a great source of information and inspiration, I feel like a child in a sweet shop."

"The car just pulled up on the promenade outside my house, the driver got out, bought an ice cream and sat on a bench while a small crowd gathered around the car. I just assumed it was a very good replica until I came across your site."
