Issued between 1961-65, this Bentley Continental model has a gleaming and distinctive pale metallic green finish, with a white upper, 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.
Harder to find version.
Painstaking scrutiny finds a couple of tiny touch-ins to the white finish. Original tyres are rather grubby now.
