1948 - Early 1950s
 

"My father owned this car probably in the early 1950s (purchased in 1948). As far as I can remember it had been owned by Margaret Allen, a racing driver who drove it at Brooklands and I believe, briefly held the lap record there."

"Is there any way of tracing, the existence and location of my late father's Bentley 1928 registration ME 2431. I believe it was raced (and held some kind of record) at Brooklands, by Margaret Allen around the 1930s"
