1925 Bentley 3 Litre
Mechanically well sorted, drivers 3 litre Bentley

This is a drivers 3 litre Bentley through and through and has been THE 3 litre to beat at many major events. Whether you want to blast round the Alps, down the Mulsanne or cross half the world on the next Peking to Paris, this is the car. No, it's not matching numbers and it's an RC chassis but the rest is all WO and it carries a Bentley Drivers Club ID. It's mechanically well sorted, the engine was totally rebuilt 18 months ago, the gearbox within the last 2 years and with the uprated crank & rods conversion to 4.5 litres couldn't be easier resulting in a substantial uplift in both performance and value.

If you're looking for a first Bentley purchase or a second to go out and use without spoiling the historic time capsule in the garage then you won't find better anywhere.
