1953 Bentley R-Type Factory Left-Hand Drive

This beautiful 1953 Bentley R-Type is a highly collectible factory left-hand drive example and an excellent driver. Dark red and cream two-tone paint with burgundy interior. This ever-desirable Bentley is powered by a straight-6 engine linked to an automatic transmission. The car runs and drives excellent and is ready to be enjoyed by its next loving caretaker. A comfortable ride with smooth acceleration, great handling for a car of its size and good braking. Straight body panels, good gaps, and a solid undercarriage. The paint does show some minor bubbling and flaws in a few areas. Extremely clean oxblood seats, beautiful burl wood dash and flip down trays. This car was clearly well maintained, pampered, and loved by its previous owner. This luxurious piece of automotive history is not to be overlooked.

Price: $36, 500
