"1923 3/4½ ltr Speed Model THE LIGHTWEIGHT BENTLEY
Registration Number: WO 1928 Chassis Number: 184 Engine Number: PM 3262
Price: £ POA

You are looking at a Vintage Bentley that not only encompasses that enthusiasm, camaraderie, and tremendous spirit that has prevailed within the Bentley Driver’s Club from day one, but also one of the fastest Vintage Bentleys in the world.

The website www.thelightweightbentley.com tells the remarkable and outrageous story of this car, but in short it’s skimpier than a supermodel’s nightie and has a 0-60 time of 6 seconds. Superbly engineered and weighing in at 16.75 cwt a - little under half the weight of a standard 3 Litre Bentley -she is ideal for racing, sprinting or fast touring."

"My father owned the above car (Reg no. XU 7521 - Hamish Morten) and he wrote an article in the BDC review in 1999 about the 'Last Bentley win on the full Le Mans circuit' in 1973 (albeit subsequently overtaken by Bentley Motors in 2003). Attached is the article, which I thought your readers would find interesting — beating Stirling Moss and other hot racing cars from pre 1939.

XU7521 was the well known Hamish Morten lightweight Bentley, which has now been rebuilt under Reg WO1928 on Chassis 184 and PM 3262."

This car was owned by Hamish Morten from 1960 to 1974.
