1931 4 litre Mulliner Sport-Saloon - ex Capt. Woolf Barnato - For Sale
- Einer der bestdokumentierten Wagen überhaupt
- Herausragende Originalität
- Zahlreiche Auszeichnungen
Beschreibung:
Es wurden lediglich 50 Exemplare des 4 litre produziert, von denen heute noch ca. 10 existieren dürften.
Dieser 4 litre Bentley mit dem 1931 zugeteilten Kennzeichen GO 8477 hat eine ganz besondere Geschichte: Als erstes Produktionsfahrzeug ging es an keinen Geringeren als Captain Woolf Barnato. Barnato war seinerzeit Direktor bei Bentley und hatte die Firma bereits seit Mitte der 20er Jahre maßgeblich finanziert. Der südafrikanische Diamantenmillionär verfügte nicht nur über unermessliche Mittel sondern war als Rennsportbegeisterter auch Triebfeder der legendären der Bentley-Boys, als deren prominentester Vertreter er u. a. mehrere Le Mans Siege für Bentley verbuchte.
Zu GO 8477 liegen äußerst umfangreiche Materialien vor und es dürfte sich um einen der bestdokumentierten Wagen überhaupt handeln, der auch vielfach in der Literatur Erwähnung findet. Die Besitzerhistorie ist vollständig bekannt. Der Wagen besticht zusätzlich durch seine herausragende Originalität – das Lederinterieur ist nach über 74 Jahren noch das Erste! Nach einer behutsamen Restaurierung durch die Bentley Spezialisten McKenzie-Guppy hat der Wagen beim BDC Concours in Blenheim die ersten Preise für beste Limousine und den originalsten Bentley gewonnen. Weitere Auszeichnungen wurden u. a. in Pebble Beach, auf der Villa d’Este, der Rallye Monte Carlo und dem Concours in Schwetzingen erworben.
Dies ist eine einmalige Gelegenheit einen der letzten W. O. Bentley aus äußerst prominentem Erstbesitz, in einem wunderbar authentischen Zustand und mit einer unglaublichen Dokumentation zu erwerben!
- 1 of only 50 built!
- Probably one of the best documented exemplars ever
- Outstanding original
- Numerous awards
Description:
Only 50 examples of the 4 liter were produced, of which there are still about 10 exist.
This 4-liter Bentley with the registration plate GO 8477 assigned in 1931 has a very special history: As the first production vehicle it was delivered to no less than Captain Woolf Barnato. Barnato was director at Bentley and had funded the company significantly since the mid-1920s. The South African diamond millionaire not only had immeasurable means, but was also a driving force of the legendary Bentley Boys. As their most prominent representative he achieved several Le Mans wins for Bentley.
The GO 8477 comes with extremely extensive materials and is probably one of the best-documented cars, which is often mentioned in the literature. The owner's history is fully known. The car also impresses with its outstanding originality - after 74 years, the leather interior is still the first!
After a careful restoration by the Bentley specialists McKenzie-Guppy, the car won the first prizes for the best limousine and the most original Bentley at the BDC Concours in Blenheim. Other awards were achieved in Pebble Beach, Villa d'Este, Monte Carlo Rally and Concours in Schwetzingen.
This is a unique opportunity to purchase one of the last W. O. Bentley from a very prominent first owner, in a wonderfully authentic condition and with an incredible documentation!
