...We are very pleased to offer here a 1958 Bentley S1, Right Hand Drive Standard Steel Saloon. A production figure of only 3538 with possibly half that number remaining ensures that despite a totally recognizable profile, cars of this type are very rarely seen on the road. 

 photo DSCN1309_zps165c2125.jpg

It shows 22,417  miles, black with parchment leather. The paint is in excellent to near mint condition.  Interior leather and wood are also excellent. Chrome bumpers and body fittings also excel, near flawless.

The timeless dashboard design here includes excellent wood, and all working gauges, during our testing process. Even the radio turns on (!!)  The oil pressure and temperature gauges all showed proper readings - this particular car was a very rewarding car to drive during our test and adjustment sessions. Our Rolls-Royce / Bentley Expert reported a clean bill of health as well as being very responsive to all the minor adjustments he was making. (On the other hand, he complains loudly when a car is resistant to his expert touch...)

The 4.9 liter engine, as originally installed in this car, is the latest and largest displacement version of this classic design. It appears to have either very low mileage ( as indicated) or a rebuilt engine. Normally the lower engine would have a throrough covering of grease / grime -- however this car has virtually NO coating , in some areas the aluminum castings being completely clear. We did no cleaning in these engine areas, to preserve the condition, so to speak. Other areas on the car that also indicate low mileage include original  dash + interior wood, original headliner, and original leather hides in the interior.

The SU carburetors operate properly, providing the engine with smooth acceleration and running characteristics. The car pulls very strongly, keeping up with any traffic. Enjoyment plus..... photo DSCN1166_zps0817d6e3.jpg

The Rolls-Royce / Hydramatic 4 speed automatic transmission shifts perfectly, also lending credence to an original low mileage. Crisp, positive shifts every time add to the  driving experience.

 photo DSCN1294_zpsd021bbed.jpg

New original specification Goodyear wide whitewall tires ($$$) add to the overall look... photo DSCN1220_zps08da9c8f.jpg

All headlights, driving /fog  lights, tail / brake / signal lights operate properly, as well as all dashboard and interior lights.  photo DSCN1208_zps3c9b4f13.jpg

The Summary :  We LOVE the car and know the next owner / operator will also. It is a very strong, well cared for car that is among the very best example we have ever seen. We invite and encourage an independent inspection to verify the condition of the car. Whether going to a Car Show, a private garage, or a road trip, we know the car is capable. We have owned, enjoyed and improved the car and have no reservations about offering the car here. Thanks for looking. photo DSCN1204_zpsa466ce76.jpg photo DSCN1229_zpsc8d716bc.jpg photo DSCN1245_zpse6404b57.jpg photo DSCN1231_zps2c428e95.jpg photo DSCN1249_zpsc633a378.jpg photo DSCN1252_zps70569989.jpg photo DSCN1237_zps8f9e183e.jpg photo DSCN1265_zps72b3c871.jpg photo DSCN1225_zps4a17e4c6.jpg photo DSCN1257_zps6923834e.jpg photo DSCN1227_zps53f71330.jpg photo DSCN1270_zps745dab14.jpg photo DSCN1199_zpsf73a6067.jpg

Bentley resumes restoration of the first T-Series sedan

Fri, Apr 15 2022

Bentley has shifted one of its on-going restoration projects into high gear. Found after spending decades undriven, the first T-Series sedan built is being brought back to life by the British company's apprentices and specialists and it should be back on the road by the end of 2023. Manufactured on September 28, 1965, about a week before the model's official unveiling at that year's Paris auto show, the oldest T-Series was finished in Shell Gray with a blue interior. Bentley initially kept the car and used it as a test mule around the world. The big sedan later ended up in private hands with a blue California plate and a "Beverly Hills Motor Cars" plate frame attached to its rear end. It was last registered in 2015, according to the sticker on the plate, though Bentley notes that it has spent decades off the road and in storage. Bentley bought the car and shipped it back to its headquarters in England. It started tearing down the sedan in October 2016: A group of apprentices removed the exterior trim and began preparing the body for new paint, but the project stalled. See, this happens even to luxury carmakers — don't feel bad about the Fox-generation Mustang lingering in the back of your garage. For collectors, projects tend to get delayed when, for better or worse, life happens. Bentley ran into different hurdles: It put the T-Series on the backburner to launch its current range of models, including the Flying Spur and the Continental GT. Nearly six year later, the firm is returning to the garage to wrap things up. It sounds like the T-Series was stored indoors, and being out of the elements might be its saving grace. Mechanics managed to fire up the 6.2-liter, 225-horsepower V8 engine, and they gave it a clean bill of health; the automatic transmission is in good condition as well. There is still some body work that needs to be completed and the interior is almost completely taken apart. Bentley estimates that the project will take approximately 18 months, so it should be finished by late 2023, and it plans to add the car to its Heritage Collection when it's done.  While it's a relatively obscure classic in 2022, the T-Series remains a hugely important part of Bentley's heritage.

Bentley Bentayga dives deep into luxury with touches of pearl

Mon, Mar 18 2019

As some of the most luxurious vehicles on the planet, Bentleys are inspirational (and aspirational) to thousands of customers and fans around the globe. But sometimes, Bentley is the one finding inspiration in its customers. As a special commission for a Middle Eastern client, Bentley and in-house specialty shop Mulliner have created the limited-edition "Pearl of the Gulf" Bentayga, complete with pearl trim and a fingerprint safe. Only five examples, each different from the one before it, will be made. The Pearl of the Gulf proudly ties in the cultural history of the Middle East. For centuries, pearl diving and harvesting has been a major economic key to cities around the Arabian Gulf. And it just so happens, the gleaming stones are beautiful enough to complement the Bentayga's high-class personality. On the car shown here, Bentley artistically integrated a mother-of-pearl-laced dhow diving boat within the Dark Fiddleback Eucalyptus wood dashboard. Mother of pearl is also seen on the Breitling clock in the center of the dash. Furthering the elevated feel of the cabin is a special technological add-on. Bentley installed a high-pressure die-cast aluminum storage unit that only unlocks with the touch of the owner's finger. The biometric fingerprint sensor is intended to secure any valuables while the car is left in an exposed environment or handed off to drivers. The rest of the cabin is a two-tone blend of light Linen and dark Brunel leather, a theme meant to evoke the coloring of a pearl and its shell. The quilted seats and door paneling have Camel and Brunel contrast stitching, and gold embroidery adds extra sparkle. Linen lambswool rugs turn the floor into a delightful rest area for the feet, and door sills highlight the car's "1 of 5" status. The remaining examples will be built by Mulliner's crew in Crewe, England.

Latest Forza Horizon 3 car pack features a Skyline and a fast Swedish wagon

Tue, Jan 3 2017

The steady stream of Forza Horizon 3 car packs shows no signs of slowing down, and the latest Rockstar Energy Drink pack includes enthusiast favorites such as the R31 Skyline and the Volvo V60 Polestar. The car pack also features a couple of sporty two-doors and some off-road oriented machines. Luxury-minded players will be pleased to see both the Bentley Bentayga and BMW i8 make an appearance. People more concerned with ultimate performance will have a different pair to consider. Players will want to check out the Ford trophy truck for busting dunes, and the Radical RXC Turbo for race-car levels of pavement performance. Finally, yet another classic Aussie muscle car appears in the pack: the 1972 Ford Falcon XA GT-HO. For those interested in the new rides, this car pack is included in the Forza Horizon 3 Car Pass, or can be purchased on its own. If only one or two vehicles are must-haves, it's also possible to purchase the cars individually.
