Notes

Issued between 1961-65, this Bentley Continental model has a gleaming and distinctive pale metallic green finish, with a creamy-white upper.

C224v3241

C224v3242

Different from the standard version which has a very pale green upper.
For comparison only:

C224v3243

Jewelled front and rear lights, opening boot with spare wheel, and a perfect, intact bonnet emblem_.

Suspension on shaped spun wheels. Original, fine tread, smooth-running grey tyres.
This harder to find version looks barely handled! Little mark to a front wheel arch and the occasional mere dot besides.

The pictorial card box is complete with quite a crisp feel. Some age/handling wear and an end flap corner edge ruffle. Shopkeeper’s period pencilled price at an end flap.
