Description

1953 Bentley R-Type 4 1/ 2 Big Bore

This is believed to be the very last manual Bentley made. It is the larger 4. 5 litre engine which pulls very well.

Bodywork is ok there are some marks in places I have taken pictures of most of them it's not perfect as some of the pictures suggest

The interior is in good condition including the wooden trim and headlining likely having been re trimmed in the past.

Exterior chrome is bright and free of any surface rust.

Gearbox is working well albeit with some noise from the clutch thrust bearing

Overall the car is a very nice to drive and I would be confident driving it anywhere
