Would not buy a modern Bentley even if I could afford one (which will be never). If I could afford a Bently it would have to be a 1920s 3 ltr Red Label or 3 ltr Super Sports.
A good read is 'The Other Bentley Boys' by author Elizabeth Nagle with a forward by W.O. Bentley. Dedicated to the racing Mechanics of Bentley Motors. Published by George G. Harrop & Co Ltd 1964.

Good heavens above! Good job I bought it when I did in 1964 for 30/- or £1.50.

Think positive, folks, although the brands may all have been sold, all three companies employ a lot of people in this country either in manufacturing or assembly - long may it continue 'cos there is too much that has been sold out of the country altogether!

The only problem I can see is that the import and export embargo is a bit one sided but I agree it keeps people in jobs

They start at £20.00 here if anybody really desires a copy.
