=============================================================
The information below was received
from owner, William Highley, on Sep
01, 2007 following which the Chassis
No. for Reg. No. KW 4077 was corrected
to show FT3218 (as against the previously
recorded 'FT3217'):
"I would be grateful if you could
correct the Chassis Number for my
Bentley Registration No. KW4077. The
correct Chassis Number is FT3218 and
not FT3217. The Vanden Plas records
are correct which is confirmed by
the service records and the numbers
on the car.
According to Stanley Sedgwick's book
All the Pre-War Bentleys —
As New, Chassis No. FT3217 belongs
to a car originally owned by a Mr.
T. E. Barr Smith Jnr. There is no
Registration No. recorded for it though."
=============================================================
Michael Hay, in his book Bentley: The Vintage Years,
1997, states: "D/7133.
Vanden Plas body no. 1511. In same
family from new."
