Bentley 3 Litre

Step into the timeless world of pioneer W.O. Bentley, where his words resonate: 'a fast car, a good car, the best in its class'. Here we proudly present the Bentley 3 Liter, born in 1923 from W.O. Bentley's passion and vision. Originally a Harisson Tourer coach, the car was quickly stripped down for the race track and made history in the illustrious 1920s by finishing third in the 90-mile race with a breathtaking average speed of 92 miles per hour, living up to its reputation as a speed demon.

The Bentley 3 Litre not only captured racing fans, but also shone on the famous Brooklands circuit. After a pre-war transformation with a partially new chassis and Van der Plas body, the car also retained its original 3 Litre chassis with the engraved old chassis number as tangible evidence of its heritage. Documentation and validation by expert Dr Clare Hay underline its authenticity.

The current owner, who took over the car after 55 years of ownership by the previous owner, celebrated the centenary of the Bentley 3 Litre in style. During the same week, he participated in the Historic Grand Prix of Zandvoort, a tribute to the rich history and timeless performance of this unique vehicle. With only a few examples in circulation, this Bentley offers not only collector's value but also a unique experience in the heritage of car racing. Get in and continue the legend!
