1978 BENTLEY T2

This lot will be auctioned via Iconic Auctioneers, The Classic Sale at the NEC Classic Motor Show 2026 on Sunday the 15th of November, NEC, Birmingham, B40 1NT. Estimated price: GBP 8,000 - GBP 10,000.

Introduced in 1977 as the successor to the Bentley T1, the T2 featured revised steering, suspension and other improvements. Powered by Bentley's 6.75-litre V8 engine, just 578 examples were produced before production ended in 1980

Whilst mechanically identical to its sibling, the Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow II, the Bentley T2 is significantly rarer and was marketed toward buyers looking for a more understated, driver-focused luxury car

This handsome example was first registered on 12/05/1978 and is finished in Scots Pine Green with a contrasting Magnolia Hide interior

Indicating 198,435 miles at the time of cataloguing, with four former registered keepers. Accompanied by a detailed history file comprising three binders of service records, invoices and supporting documentation

Over £4,000 spent on mechanical maintenance during the past 12 months, including a full service, carburettor rebuild, replacement brake pumps, hoses, spark plugs and HT ignition leads

A relatively rare Crewe-built Bentley saloon, supported by detailed history and recent mechanical expenditure. We encourage your inspection at our NEC Classic Motor Show Sale.
