Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

RHD. Automatic, period radio, spotlight, driving light and fog lights. Tired old repaint, redyed original interior with surface cracks in drivers seat, good wood and chrome. Sound, mostly original, one of four made, quite handsome and used regularly.

Market commentary

These are quick, stylish and rare cars with a presence, much sought by collectors and those who just have a hankering to drive a rolling statement. About 8x the price of a Bentley R standard steel saloon is the price of being unique.
