Description
1949 Bentley MKVI Standard Steel Saloon For Sale.
Registration number: NPB393
Chassis number: B250EY
To start and drive this MK VI is as you would expect, simply magnificent. The engine runs quietly and smoothly, never missing a beat, having been fully rebuilt. There have been recent major works by the world renowned Frank Dale and Stepsons, the quality of workmanship is clear from moment you press the starter button. An eye watering £60, 000 in recent bills come with the car.
This car spent many many years in the dry climes of Valladolid Spain meaning it has escaped the ravages of English winters & is thus as good underneath as it is on top. It was repatriated 7 or so years ago & has since then always been garage kept.
The exterior is beautifully finished in a recently painted solid Grey. There are ¼ wheel spats to the rear and the colour is broken up by the chrome finishings. There is a centre spot lamp to the front and the owner has fitted brand new radial tyres all round which improve the handling no end compared to the previous cross-ply items. The previous owner has also had a full rewire done as part of his policy of open cheque book maintenance.
The interior is in excellent condition, the stone coloured leather is like new and has been finished to a very high standard. The seats are fluted to the front and rear, the colour contrasts the exterior perfectly. All wood is in excellent condition and has been removed & beautifully repolished.
All in all this is a lovely example in a very traditional & period colour.
