An absolutely gorgeous Rolls-Royce converted to Bentley specification by the previous owner, this is a stunning 2 door coupe in excellent condition.
The car in 2015 had over £45,000 (DKK390,000) in mechanical work done to it along with a bare metal respray in metallic maroon by authorized Danish Rolls-Royce Service agents Bernt Hansens of Copenhagen. The bills in Danish for this are all on file.
To the interior is Black hide & black carpeting all in superb condition. Burr walnut adorns the dash board & door tops. The walnut has been removed & refinished to as new condition. New tyres have also been recently put on the car. The car drives absolutely beautifully as a result of the money spent upon it. These are rare & collectible cars in the Bentley form & this one is a particularly fine example with all the money required having been already spent upon it.

Before becoming a mere subsidiary to Rolls-Royce, Bentley was an independent Automaker famous for the "fastest lorries in the world" e.i Bentley 4½ Litre.
Good ol' Bentley boys (A group of wealthy British motorists, mainly Woolf Barnato, Sir Henry "Tim" Birkin, steeplechaser George Duller, aviator Glen Kidston, S.C.H. "Sammy" Davis, and Dr Dudley Benjafield ) -in their trusty Bentley cars- took four consecutive victories at 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1924, 1927, 1928, 1929, 1930
In 1931 Bentley was taken over British Central Equitable Trust that later proved to be a front for Rolls-Royce Limited. Unhappy with his role at Rolls-Royce, W.O. Bentley left the company when his contract expired in 1935 duly joining Lagonda. This was beginning of which ultimately led Bentley cars to become more or less badge-engineered Rolls-Royce.
