Vintage Bentley cars in showbiz
 

There are many movies all about cars, with a small amount of plot, others featuring long dramatic car chases, but there are also many movies and TV shows where the choice of car helps to define the character of the hero or villain, highlight the fashions of the time the film was made or even transform and otherwise ordinary film onto an iconic one...

We have brought together a list of Vintage Bentley cars that have been in showbiz. Most chassis nos. have been identified based on the reg plate in the photo — not always the most authentic method... Some chassis nos. could not be identified at all — that's where our readers can contribute with some detective work.
