1951 Bentley 4 1/2 Litre Special

Elegantly proportioned and highly finished Bentley MKVI Special built by Belrose Classics Coachbuilders.

With great reliability, a Bentley MKVI is the perfect platform to build into a Special.

This example was built with the biggest attention to details and all comfort respecting in the meantime the magic of a pre-war Bentley.

The mechanicals were thoroughly overhauled, re-engineered and rebuilt.

The interior presents plenty details, all of them as practical as beautiful.

The car was built respecting a major guideline : offering maximal reliability, driving pleasure and nostalgia.

A perfect example of the high comfort is the impressive soft top system which closes in one turn of arms !

The engine is a MKVI 4 1/2 L engine restored to the highest standards.

To avoid a recurrent ignition problem in a classic car, we replaced the mechanical distributor with an electronic ignition.

Transmission is the corresponding, but thoroughly restored 4-manual MKVI gearbox.

The car is sitting on 21" wheels.

No work and expense were spared to realise this lovely Bentley Special ready for road and endurance rallies.

This "vintage" & completely handmade pretty lady is built on order according the specifications of the customer.
