Just been following a late 50s/early 60s silver Bentley Continental Reg DBO 1.
Hadn't realised how huge these monsters were. Especially when you're in a Chim.

Waheeeey success .......well here she is , this was taken just after I picked her up ...since then though I have spent about 10 hours detailing consisting of machine polishing waxing and treating the interior to a full leather treatment process .....more than happy with her....and the noise is to die for....997S was great but this is just sublime.......
