Aug
30, 2012: Sold
Bentley 4.5 Le Mans 1928 for sale
The 4.5 litre Bentley is the ideal
tourer; without the muscle enhancing
seize of a 6.5, the temperament of
a blower, or the more sedate pace
of a 3 litre, if ever there was a
‘Goldilocks ‘ Bentley its
the 4.5 . For the last 10 years this
car has regularly covered over 5000
miles a year touring Europe without
missing a beat, often cruising all
day at 75 mph, (will go up to near
a 100mph if you want.) She has gone
from Ekateringburg to to St Petersburg,
and places not ending in 'burg including
Germany, Italy, Turkey, and Sweden.
This car is a formidable performer
and has been maintained meticulously
by Stuart Fearnside. It has had a
complete engine overhaul one year
ago, has overdrive, a rebuilt differential,
a new radiator, water pump, wheel
bearings and is ready for any rally
any where.
This car
is for sale as of Jun 24, 2012 |
