1963 | Bentley S 3 Continental Flying Spur
Description
1963 Bentley S3 H.J. Mulliner Continental Flying Spur
Chassis number: BC54XA
Registration Number: OYM211A
Fully restored by Marque speciaist Alan Carrington, this car was last on sale at noted RR & Bentley luminaries messers P & A Wood at £265k who also did some service work on it. There is an enourmous history file detailing the massive expenditure carried out upon the car to put it in the tip top condition we find it in today.
The car is finished in a beautiful silver metallic with the paintowrk done to a very high standard. Inside is maroon leather to the seats & door cards along with very dark purple deep pile sheepskin rugs underfoot. New tyres were fitted all round as well as to the spare under the bott floor. A full set of tools is found in its appointed place in the boot tool box. Refinished mirror polished high quality burr Walnut adorns the dash board & door tops. All heating controls etc work as when the car was new.
The best part of this car as well as its concours condition is to actually drive it. The gear changes are smooth & imperceptible allied to a silent powerful engine. Noted specialists RR&B Garages have taken car of recent servicing & indeed have done a great job.
To sum up, perfction needs but few words. This is a car that wants for nothing & is ready for immediate continental journeys. Having driven one of these to Barcelona recently I can attest to why they had the Continental Moniker applied to them when new.
