QUESTION I will soon have my 3 Litre back on the road. One of the reasons I was inspired to do a complete ground-up restoration was that a modern car drove into my rear wing (fender), crushing it badly. I was not impressed with my insurance company which, supposedly, specializes in antique cars. I have since found few people who have been pleased with the way insurance claims are handled, no matter what company they have dealt with. I hope you have not had an accident with your Bentley, but positive experiences would be worth hearing about - no matter what country you live in.

Speaking of accidents, Vintage Bentley front seat occupants have a tendency to put their heads through the windshield, or are thrown out of a touring car in a head-on collision. Seat belts seem worthless since the windshield is close to the head. Short of wearing a helmet, what are the alternatives to avoiding injury in an accident?
