"1928 4½ Litre Bentley with fabulous original Vanden Plas coachwork and four owners from new.

Chassis TX 3245, a 1928 4½ Litre Vanden Plas sports, must be one of the most original Bentleys in existence.

Original leather and fabric, engine seals preserved on the crankcase, its original 'D' type gearbox and stirrup-mounted Zeiss Lights are just a few of the features."
