1928 Bentley 4½ Litre Le Mans
One of the best 4½ litre Le Mans ever to come on to the market.

This one is the full Monty.

Just arrived.

Fully rebuilt in 1998 by Stanley Mann Racing and sold to a very happy chap who has kept her in pristine condition.

She has all original matching everythingmebobs and has some very useful extras such as an overdrive and Carl Zeiss headlights (those are the one you can actually see with at night).

Since we completed the rebuild in 1998 she has only done some 2500 miles. Driving her yesterday the sound is fantastic as well as the performance.

The price is fair considering her condition and what it would cost to correctly restore a vintage Bentley today and its ready to drive away now.
