1955 Bentley R Automatic SOLD

Car repatriated from Midwest USA by owner 10 years ago.
In excellent condition with car serviced every 12 months since owning and all mechanical and cosmetic faults rectified as necessary. Car was restored and re-painted in USA at cost of $35, 000 in the two years prior to my purchase. It has won many awards in my ownership and as stated is in good mechanical and cosmetic condition.
I may consider Part Exchange for more modern Bentley, as the car is now a little large and heavy for me to handle at my age.
