Bentley 4½ Le Mans
Bentley 4½ Litre 'Le Mans' – the second from last vintage Bentley ever registered with the highest technical specification possible. Heavy pattern chassis frame, plate clutch, self wrapping brakes, 'D' gearbox , the list goes on… this model is an extraordinary example of the versatility of the model. A motor car capable of rallying and racing anywhere in the world, it is now looking for a new owner with the passion to continue its history.

"I’m just in the process to take over the Vintage Bentley, Chassis RC 45, Engine RC 437E, with the original registration number GME 152. The car is already listed in your register and I will provide you soon with some further fotos and documents.

Further informations in John Adams/Ray Roberts "A Pride of Bentleys" (p.74, p.92 with RC42) and in Andrew Frankel’s "Bentley-Die Geschichte" (p.39).

"I took these pictures of RC45 at Chatsworth House in 1986. It was during the Bentley Drivers Club Golden Jubilee celebrations. RC45 still had her original Vanden Plas coach work at this time."
