Looking good at 80

80 year old racing bentley. Top speed 130 mph, while the average speed of cars on the road was 40 mph.

The company went into receivership in 1931, 3303 cars were produced and the 5 lemans victories were scored. It was sold to Rolls Royce in 1931.
Rolls Royce aquired Bently secretly using an entity named the British central Equitable trust, not even Bentley himself knew the true identity of the purchaser until the deal was completed.

Who would be happy with bodywork like this at 80, today's blip did't need to be found as it found me when i heard the lovely roar of the engine.
