"It looks like it may have been in the Automobillia Car Museum in Cornwall, now sadly long gone. As the article says, it is still road legal in the UK. The tax has been renewed within the last month. Curiously though, it's on the DVLA system as having a 1593cc engine. It must be around somewhere, it should be easy to catch up with!" — Ian Wegg, Feb 21, 2019

"I wonder if there is any way of tracing the current location of my grandfather, Donald Bremner's Bentley, registration YP 9260, chassis no. LM1348? We checked on the DVLA website and it's still taxed, so presumably it's on the road somewhere!

I think he owned it up to 1956 when it underwent restoration. He says he thinks he had it during the War, but can't remember precise dates. Apparently he rewired it."
