Having joined Bentley Motors Ltd as an apprentice in 1928 and stayed on as a salesman until the Company was bought by Rolls-Royce, I drove all the models when they were new. Later, in the 1930s, I was demonstrating and selling all sorts of cars for an agency in London. I often tested these cars at Brooklands and many of them were "used" Bentleys sold to the old Bentley clientele. Since then I have owned and raced several other Bentleys and driven every model. So in one way or another I feel that I know the marque, whether it be from Cricklewood, Derby, or Crewe.   Continued
